We produced the promotional video “Becoming Family” for TEPCO’s official smartphone app, “TEPCO Sokuho.” It depicts a couple on the verge of marriage whose feelings begin to drift apart, but who, prompted by a power outage alert for the area where one of their parents’ homes is located, reaffirm their love and become a family.

We produced the original drama “Niwani wa Nihwa” for KURASHI NO DOUGU TEN. Created from scratch as a fully original work together with screenwriter Keisuke Kamiya, this series is a buddy story about the slightly unusual pairing of Tsugumi Aoi (Rie Mimura), a real estate agent, and Tsubame Toriumi (Hana Morimoto), a repair specialist. It gently and lightly portrays people who keep striving through each day while living with what’s missing in their lives.

Sony designers and science fiction writers collaborated to depict “Tokyo in 2050” using the methodology of sci-fi prototyping. With the three keywords “2050,” “Tokyo,” and “romance” as a broad framework, they held a series of intermittent workshops to explore four themes—“WELL-BEING,” “HABITAT,” “SENSE,” and “LIFE”—which culminated in “design prototyping” by designers and “short science fiction stories” by science fiction writers.

We produced the collaboration music video “Echoes of Silence” by The Weeknd and Hajime Sorayama. Launched as a flagship project for The Weeknd’s 10th anniversary, this fully 3DCG work was completed over a production period of approximately two years with a team of more than 50 staff members. Centering on Hajime Sorayama’s globally acclaimed “Sexy Robot,” it visualizes an epic romantic tragedy. At HOEDOWN, we handled the concept, planning, direction, and production in an integrated manner.

In Japan, construction sites have signs with illustrations of people in work clothes apologizing. I had been noticing them for some reason and filming them without any particular purpose, but when I gathered them together and compared them, they turned out to be interesting. Certain kinds of illustrations are used frequently, but among them are some with unusual outfits or strange poses. Even the construction signs tucked away in a corner of the city reveal a surprisingly rich culture of creativity when you pay attention to them. This video work is an animated compilation of that appeal.

I directed a promotional video using Subaru Tecnica International’s Nürburgring-spec car. It was driven by SUBARU’s race driver Takuto Iguchi, and his speed range was beyond what I had expected; I remember the camera car having to run at an exceptionally high speed during filming. Also, as you may be able to tell from the footage, even when the car changed, he passed through the same line on every lap, which made switching between vehicles extremely easy, and I believe this work was made possible by the combined strength of a true professional driver.
