"Shichigengakuen Student Council" is a self-produced project and unit in which six VTubers come together and work as student council members of "Nanajigen High School." qootain produced the music video for the title track, "Sokubutsuteki Ensemble," from their 1st EP. The video takes on a collage-like structure that combines multiple techniques and dimensions, including hand-drawn 2D animation, silhouette animation, 3DCG, and live-action shooting using miniatures.

Description: At some point in time, humanity vanished from Earth in an instant. Countless pieces of space debris are scattered across Earth’s orbit. Among that debris, an optical disc happens to slip into a player, and the track begins to play. The thoughts left within the music take on the physical phenomenon of vibration and rain down upon the Earth. Parabolic antennas on the ground listen to the vibrations, and radio towers transmit radio waves of their own accord. Signage in an abandoned city displays the performer’s image, obscured by noise, while a three-dimensional hologram is projected onto a sandy beach. Waves gently brush against feet, and a semi-transparent body traces out the choreography. A roadside cathode-ray tube set bears a face mottled with static, hallucinating seven figures who should not be there. When the track ends, the player ejects the optical disc. The Earth glows, and the debris continues to circle in orbit.

This was produced as part of the CREATORS WORK initiative for TOYOTA’s “YARIS_DIRECTORSCUT” project. We combined multiple pieces of Yaris series footage and composited them with CGI.
