A new craft program that focuses on the “interestingness of movement.” By combining the program’s craft mechanisms with viewers’ ideas, something new is created. Making full use of expressive techniques unique to video streaming, it nurtures children’s interest in and ability for making things. This is the first special episode. Using smartphone- and tablet-based interactive segments such as “Ani-Kougei” and “Ani-Kamera” to suggest new ways of engaging with video, and clearly presenting the “Moving Craft Engine,” where simple crafts create surprising motion, the program also makes use of video expression to introduce and update what it can do now. Please take a look.
