Following a family over the course of a year, in step with a daily tear-off calendar.

Official trailer for a film festival held at an airport. When making animations, I always go through trial and error and experiment every time, but I am constantly troubled by how hard it is to actually improve. If I boldly discard the things I have built up, I sometimes discover something new, or when I break through a certain stage, my vision suddenly opens up and I start to feel delighted. I feel as though I create while repeating this process of coming closer and moving away, becoming blurred and then clear again. The sound design includes the sounds of stationery and art materials used in the actual trailer production, as well as voices and singing from meetings. I hope viewers can feel the excitement of finally completing the work and setting off for the film festival.
