School Corporation Kadokawa Dwango Gakuen, which operates N High School and S High School, produced a promotional video for educational materials developed under the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry’s “Classroom of the Future” initiative. By effectively incorporating 3DCG into what could otherwise be a monotonous interview video, the film keeps viewers engaged while also making the content easy to understand.

Description: A set evoking a laid-back cosmic space was composed entirely of Plarail and mirror balls. All shots were filmed with an action camera mounted on a Plarail train running along the tracks in the set. Through the arcing camera movements unique to Plarail and its distinctive angles, the work creates a sense of gravitational pull and the atmosphere of looking out at colossal structures from a train window.

I aimed to create visuals that, through motion, bring out the energy of the music and design, along with the images from the film footage shot by the director, while making them feel darker and more beautiful, leaving a stronger impression through the composition of each shot.
