Description: To help young people discover the appeal of becoming a tax accountant and aspire to the profession, this piece was created in an RPG-style animation. It was produced to convey the many facets of the tax accountant profession through game-like skills and traits unique to the role, such as defeating daunting tasks (bosses) with a huge workload and overcoming difficulties brilliantly with knowledge (magic). Effects, sound effects, and BGM were used to boost that image and add to the player’s sense of excitement. Incidentally, generative AI was used in part of the background illustration production.
