A music video for a song from NTT DOCOMO’s official IP, “Tacitly.” The intertwined emotions of the two are depicted through contemporary dance and stage sets that change in sync. The dancers from CRE8BOY, who served as motion actors, were filmed in an actual separate studio. Based on that offline footage, the angles were tracked and the camera work and shot composition were recreated in Unity through a specialized process, resulting in a world that feels both digital and human for the characters.

This work uses photographs that capture Yamaguchi Prefecture’s natural environment and local character to express the changing seasons and the cycle of nature. Through programming, the pixels that make up the photographs are repeatedly broken apart and set in motion, layering and shifting to generate new forms and rich colors. We hope these transformations convey the growth of plants and the energy of nature, and deliver a powerful message of beginnings and renewal in life. With the cooperation of Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media [YCAM], this production uses 20 photographs taken by photographer Yasuhiro Tani, as well as Ayu Sakaguchi, Makoto Harada, Natsumi Yamamoto, and Yuhino Yoshikawa of the Yamaguchi University Photography Club. ---------------------------------------------- re-pixcells Digital Art / 24 min. 40 sec. / 2024 Project Owner: Yamaguchi University Hospital, National University Corporation Location: 1-1-1 Minami-Kogushi, Ube City, Yamaguchi Prefecture Cooperation: Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media [YCAM], Yamaguchi University Photography Club Photography: Yasuhiro Tani Art Direction: ArtPlace Inc. ---------------------------------------------- Project Page / ArtPlace Inc.: https://www.artplace.co.jp/project/yamaguchiuniv_hospital_bc_buildings/ Work Description: https://printwithcode.org/re-pixcells/

Award-winning work - "type as shape" - Motion Graphics VGT Motion Award 2025 Partner Award-winning work This work treats letters as shapes and animates them. The video is composed of eight letters, cuts, and fonts. When each element is connected in sequence, they form a single sentence.

Description: The protagonist, a character named Mieterunozomu-kun, wears a lens over one eye. With this mysterious lens, he travels through an equally mysterious world. Is it something that has taken form, or is it unreal? If everything visible has meaning, then what? This is the final chapter of the previous work, “Can You See It?”, so please look forward to seeing how the story unfolds!
