Whatever Taipei and Special Group planned and produced “Never Eat Dirt Again,” a membership program spanning Uber and Uber Eats for Uber One. In Taiwan, people often use the local phrase “我要吃土了！” (“I’m going to have to eat dirt!”) as a self-deprecating way to describe running out of money before payday. In the “Never Eat Dirt Again” campaign, this expression was brought to life visually, humorously showing that by using Uber One and saving money, there would be no need to “eat dirt” anymore. In the short film, dirt spills out of refrigerators, microwave ovens, rice cookers, kitchen cabinets, and cereal boxes, portraying a humorous scenario in which someone is just one step away from “eating dirt,” while also expressing how Uber One helps users save money through benefits such as free delivery and 5% off rides. The campaign also used out-of-home (OOH) ads that compared dishes made with dirt to popular food items, highlighting the advantages of Uber One through the contrast between the two. In addition, a special collaboration was realized with Jianguo Holiday Flower Market, the largest flower market in Taipei. “Don’t eat dirt” signs were placed in the venue’s flower pots, and similar stickers were attached to bags of gardening soil, earning great praise from gardening enthusiasts. Visitors could also scan the promotional codes printed on the signs and stickers to receive special offers. Following the “Never Eat Dirt Again” campaign, Uber One membership grew dramatically. The campaign successfully established Uber One as a highly cost-effective service.

Don’t Drink Me – Taiwanese Beer Flavored Bath Bomb

Whatever Taipei developed a “Taiwan Beer–flavored bath bomb” series in collaboration with the local Taiwanese brand HanBeer, as the second installment of its bath bomb line “Don’t Drink Me,” inspired by original Taiwanese drinks. https://www.pinkoi.com/product/CdznjmqQ Inspired by the drinking culture enjoyed at Taiwanese rechao (熱炒) restaurants, the series features three flavors: IPA, lychee beer, and osmanthus beer. Each bath bomb faithfully recreates the iconic aroma and realistic appearance of Taiwan Beer, with meticulous attention to detail, even down to the shape of the foam. Each bath bomb is also wrapped in a specially designed retro beer glass, which can be reused as a drinking glass after use. To commemorate the launch, a pop-up event was also held at “Wetland Venue” in Taipei, offering an immersive “tipsy bathroom” experience. Visitors could take photos in a bathtub surrounded by beer-colored tiles, or join a scent experience session at a unique sink made from stacked beer crates. One thing to keep in mind, however—this bath bomb is “Don’t Drink Me”!

Akabako: Embrace the Warmth of Japanese Bathing

Whatever Taipei designed a new key visual for “Aka Bako Beauty Soap,” the classic best-selling product of the long-established Japanese brand Cow Brand. It also planned the brand’s first-ever experiential special exhibition, “Sento-gaku.” https://www.cow-style.com.tw/index.php The key visual incorporates the classic atmosphere of a sento, designing “Aka Bako” to evoke a warm bath and create a soothing, comforting ambiance. In the experiential exhibition “Sento-gaku,” organized in collaboration with the Beitou Hot Spring Museum, Japanese sento culture is faithfully recreated, allowing visitors to explore the bathing culture of Japan. In the exhibition area of “Sento-gaku,” noren curtains once designed by Cow Brand to suit customs across Japan are displayed in a row. When visitors pass through them, they feel as if they have time-traveled back to a public bath from a hundred years ago. Various sento-related items are also on display, along with a mural of “Red Fuji” made by stacking Aka Bako bars; a faint fragrance fills the space, soothing both body and mind. In addition, during the exhibition period, theme lectures by popular instructors and a DIY soap stamp workshop were also held. Through “Aka Bako,” visitors were given an opportunity to bring Japan’s unique sento culture into their everyday lives.

Kenshi Yonezu New Album Release Event "LOST CORNER AR LIVE in HARAKADO"

To commemorate the release of Kenshi Yonezu’s 6th album, LOST CORNER, we were responsible for the character design and AR production/design of “LOST CORNER AR LIVE in HARAKADO,” held at Tokyu Plaza Harajuku “Harakado.” LOST CORNER AR LIVE in HARAKADO is a roughly five-minute AR experience that lets visitors witness a fictional Kenshi Yonezu live performance, dancing freely through the streets of Harajuku to songs such as the opening theme of the anime Chainsaw Man, “KICK BACK,” and the theme song for the NHK TV drama series Tiger and Her Wings, “Sayounara Mata Itsuka!” By co-creating with SoVeC, part of the Sony Group, and leveraging the advanced capabilities of Sony’s VPS technology, which boasts outstanding precision and robustness, we were able to create an immersive presentation that blends reality and digital content.

NHK E-tele “Aokiiro” Animation “Kurikaeshi no Uta”

We created the animation “The Song of Repetition by ROUTINE RECORDS,” which is used in a new segment of NHK E Tele’s children’s program Aokiiro, together with HERALBONY. “Ao” and “kiiro” are different colors, but when the two overlap, they become the same “midori.” Aokiiro is a program that nurtures a “mindset of coexistence,” in which many forms of life overlap and resonate with one another, and people come to rejoice together, help one another, and live together. In “The Song of Repetition by ROUTINE RECORDS,” we use the “tone” of repetitive behaviors, or routines, which may at first seem strange to others, as exhibited by people with disabilities, as a guide to express their invisible “inner landscapes” through music and animation. We also produced a music video version, “The Song of Repetition,” which brings together the stories of four artists contracted with HERALBONY into a single song.

At the time, lyric videos were starting to get popular, and I wanted to make a music video with a stronger focus on text design, so I began developing the concept with the goal of creating something like an upgraded version of a lyric video. I thought lyric videos were effective for keeping people watching until the end, but I also felt that if we could make the experience feel a little deeper, people might want to watch it again and again, so I aimed to convert the lyrics into English with new interpretations included and give them more expression. Since many of the lyrics were abstract, I think the somewhat suggestive English translation worked pretty well.

Inspired by the collection theme “Time Traveler,” we incorporated “time play” throughout the video. Using GoPro Bullet Time with approximately 18 special rigs by Arata Fukoe, we created a playful sense of time by syncing the video with an original soundtrack by miffrino, including effects such as the afterimage of a person struck by strobe light and expressions of different speeds in the foreground and background. Within that, we added shifts in viewpoint, such as the camera entering a bag and switching its perspective around a ball, and brought the whole piece together as a seamless visual expression.

Idemitsu Kosan is one of Japan’s leading energy companies, founded in the Meiji era. This released movie is a stop-motion animation that uses papercraft to depict the history of Idemitsu Kosan, which has continued to take on various challenges, alongside Japan, which achieved remarkable growth after the war. All of the objects that appear in it are made entirely of paper. We created a video that is flat yet has a sense of depth. Please also pay attention to the evocative music and sound effects.
