Short lyric video for Yorushika's "Playsick." Using handwritten text from the manuscript of the epistolary novel "Second Person," it was vividly brought to life with a design that conveys a sense of depth. We also handled the logo animation at the beginning.

Description: ① Hirose transforms into seven different personas → Inspired by the lyric “Let’s warp away from this ruinous world,” we created a video in which she warps into and connects through a variety of situations, regardless of nationality or gender, making it highly shareable on social media no matter where it is clipped, while keeping viewers entertained. ② Reproducing Hirose by creating a 3D mask of her → By having special effects makeup artist Amazing JIRO create a special mask of Hirose’s face, we eliminated the distinction between Hirose herself and the dancers, giving birth to a dancing Hirose. ③ Choreography that viewers can easily imitate → In pursuit of greater social media virality, we commissioned the Powerpuff Boys to create the choreography. ④ Expressing a chaotic world that mixes eras, spaces, and tones → K-POP STYLE, NEO kawaii STYLE, HIP-HOP STYLE—just pure chaos!

Description: A three-part project by Berlin-based Italian sound producer NOCUI, consisting of two singles and one EP. I created the jacket artwork and a visualizer based on it. Set to Italo Disco, the piece connects imaginary worlds to landscapes from Italy of a bygone era. Nostalgic yet fantastical scenes are rendered solely through the flickering of lines evocative of neon signs. *This video is a re-edited version of three works.

Theme: loneliness, hope, and dreams in 2020. I was struck by Jin Dogg’s lyrical stance in “Ore mo tomodachi mo honki” (“My friends and I are serious”).
