Theme: “From Emptiness to Shedding”. The aim was to depict, through collage, a nocturnal inner landscape that begins to reveal a strange beauty within its seemingly plain appearance. I set up the following plot, and this work is meant to visualize only the middle section of it. “After a recent heartbreak, the room and my state of mind feel empty, like an empty box. After that, I wander from place to place in a daze. Everything I see looks hollow. Even when something is moving, it is blurry and hard to make out. I can’t even keep up with it visually. The world appears as an empty box, a meaningless, flavorless void, yet it is accompanied by a suffocating feeling, as if being underwater. But little by little, all of this begins to shimmer. My heart is filled with euphoria, and the inner landscape is completely transformed.”

Description: “Scuffin” refers to the lines etched into a bottle through repeated use. A returnable bottle requires the extra step of being returned in order to be used again. This is the story of a bottle journeying around the earth, marked with “scuffin” as proof that someone returned it. A web movie for Pocari Sweat’s returnable bottle. The scenes in which the bottle glows were filmed by shining projector light onto cut-paper artwork.

Music video created using a loop of monje's "Coyote." It was produced through hand-drawn animation using thickly applied paint.

ZOMBIE-CHANG “Mona Lisa” Almost all of the visual ideas — training at the gym, breaking through a window and flying into space, falling into Paris, and so on — were придумед by ZOMBIE-CHANG’s Meyrin herself. I received the demo while traveling alone in Cambodia, so I listened to it there the whole time. I especially listened to it while touring Angkor Wat, so even now, when I hear this song, those images come back to mind. A scene of ZOMBIE-CHANG flying through the sky on a bicycle like E.T., amid the ruins and thickets around Angkor Wat. (I forgot to include that scene in the MV!!!!!!) I really think this song is insanely good. There aren’t many songs I keep listening to even after making a music video for them, but I’m still listening to this one all the time. It really hits me right in the chest. The melody, the lyrics, and that vocal. There’s something special about it. It’s so good. ZOMBIE-CHANG is absolutely amazing, so I was really happy to be able to make this MV. Cambodia was such an amazing and interesting country, but I guess I’ll never go again. I’ve already been to Angkor Wat.
