This work is characterized by a visual expression in which music and imagery are highly integrated. Its striking sense of typography and lyric motion that is perfectly synchronized with the music create an immersive visual and auditory experience. Dynamic camera work adds depth and movement to the visuals, while meticulous compositing down to the finest details enhances the overall texture and cohesion of the piece. Through precise adjustments that required a tremendous amount of work, the level of completion was further elevated, resulting in a finish that emphasizes its unity with the music. It was crafted with this kind of integrated expression to deliver an overwhelming sense of pleasure to the viewer.

This is the second Genshin fan movie produced at the request of HoYoFair, Genshin Impact’s official fan creation channel. In the first installment, I focused on the characters’ in-game performance, so this time I built the piece around emphasizing each character’s background and traits, and then showing, through their shared commonalities, pairings that never interact in the game. I hope it became a work that makes fans think, “I wish interactions like this really existed.”

We produced two digital ad versions for Nikkei Electronic Edition’s U23 Discount (student discount): “Job Seeker Edition” and “New Graduate Edition.” Aimed at young people, they feature fast-paced narration, eye-catching vivid colors, and pop-style motion graphics. The music uses the same song in two different arrangements: one acoustic and one digital.
