Animation for a song from the ETV program “Inai Inai Baa!” With a focus on preserving the generous, open feel of the music, the visual development was composed especially from the rhythms and tones of the orchestral instruments. Clay, paper, cotton, lead, and acrylic paint were used for the forms. Each element appearing in the video was filmed separately by material and then composited. Currently broadcast irregularly within the program. It is also available on NHK Plus for one week after airing: https://www.nhk.jp/p/inaiinai/ts/E4G3263MG7/plus/

Wounds inflicted on me, wounds I caused you. Wounds I can’t forget, wounds I wanted someone to notice. Wounds hurt. When touched, they hurt even more. And yet there was someone who gently placed a hand over the wound. The small bandage is proof of that undeniable fact.
