”Exploration 1: Studies for Naked-Eye 3D Vision” is the first installment of an in-house research project by SUNJUNJIE focused on the media characteristics of naked-eye 3D vision. In this work, we explored what kinds of video-based advertising expressions are possible by making use of the medium’s characteristics, such as creating a sense of depth through optical illusions, movements that catch the attention of passersby, visual composition, and sound design. As smartphones have become more widespread, advertising expression has increasingly taken on the aspect of a medium closely integrated into everyday life. In advertising expression, we believe it is always important to pursue a balance between people’s everyday world and the fictional stories being presented. To make this project feel more realistic, we felt it necessary to express its world not through a fictitious client but through an actual brand product, so we approached the fragrance brand “SINN PURETE” with a collaboration proposal. We discussed the video planning with the collaborator and decided to create two 15-second movies, each based on a different theme, in order to explore the greatest possible range of expression on a low budget. The first film expresses the world of SINN PURETE through its three product lines. The second film merges SINN PURETE’s mascot character with the world of SUNJUNJIE, aiming for a pop and humorous expression that feels distinctly Tokyo. The creative elements we challenged ourselves to include were how to create a striking 3D pop-out effect, and the selection of objects and movements that would be interesting when they emerge from the screen. Since not everyone watches a video from the beginning, we aimed to capture attention from any point of entry, while creating a sense of controlled busyness rather than mere chaos. In particular, we paid close attention to the design of the framing structure, the imagined depth, the actual size of the billboard, and the relationship between viewing distance and scale.

In this work, RYO the SKYWALKER’s negative image of the modern media is brought to life. Transforming into “Kong,” he rampages through the world, purifying a realm made up of negative words. It is a piece that visually conveys the message embedded in the song in a direct way. Together with the energy of reggae, it was created with the aim of delivering that message straight to the audience.
