I was in charge of the animation for the September song on the baby program “Sina Pushu” (TV Tokyo).

A commercial produced to coincide with the book publication of “Chikomaru,” a four-panel comic about a cute but slightly pitiful hamster that I created. Using existing illustrations and video assets, I worked to make the video clearly convey what kind of work Chikomaru is. It was also the first video work in which someone other than myself handled the compositing; until then, whenever I directed and produced animation, I had taken care of the compositing myself.

TV Tokyo’s baby-oriented program, Shinapushu, segment “Who’s in the Bath?” episodes 01–05 Hmm? Who could be in the bath? Let’s guess the animals hiding in the bath together with your baby. An animated work for parents and children to enjoy through sound and visuals. Produced using cutout animation and stop-motion techniques.
