A stop-motion piece created as the music video for Shijin × DJ DOLBEE’s “Now Here.” Using a variety of motifs and techniques such as clay, dolls, cut paper, and shadow puppetry, it expresses the ever-changing present.

Responsible for the video production. In keeping with the ephemeral yet serene world of a song that entrusts quiet feelings to a single flower, the entire piece was constructed through compositing that carefully crafted the gradations of light. The meticulously detailed motion brings to life the gentle presence of violets swaying in the wind, as well as the subtle stirrings of a quietly wavering heart. “I want to leave behind gentleness rather than sadness.”

Music video included on the first-press bonus edition of rapper-singer DAOKO’s second album. Since the song title is “Boku,” we developed the idea of “selfies and Instagram,” and because it was also meant to be an animated MV, we planned to use photographs for the backgrounds in order to reduce production time while improving quality. Based on that, we proposed a plot in which “while playing with an AR selfie app, you get sucked into an AR world and drift through cyberspace.” In keeping with lyrics that suggest DAOKO, after her major-label debut, gained new fans while also losing old ones, the MV depicts high school–aged daoko confronting the post-major-debut DAOKO, with the unsettling story gradually unfolding as her personality is peeled away, like a broken link on a website.

This is a “purpose movie” expressing Orizo Inc.’s purpose. It is a lyric video set to an original song, “Purpose Song (Company Anthem Rap),” created by the rapper Pony-san to express that purpose. When we proposed a concept of “a video that chaotically mixes various tones and moods, like the thoughts running through each employee’s mind,” the client liked it and told us, “Please really do whatever you like!” At our company, we usually proceed with projects by carefully building design and motion structures based on a wide range of elements, so for this video, our biggest challenge was “taking the limiter off our heads.” We also used characters that were doodled by our staff five years ago in the middle of the video, and being able to try things that would not be possible in ordinary client work was very memorable.
