My Website

Okay, I finally opened up my website. I am still not familiar with the system of Weebly, but I hope I can get along with it.

Quick Drawing and Video

 
Study for soft-touch coloring, not showing sharp lines as I usually do.

The music video I posted to Nico Nico Douga, which I couldn't post it here because TypePad could not read it, was recently reposted at YouTube with Chinese translations. So I guess now I can show it here. The concept of the video was to reuse  same images in a different pattern and still make it handsome.

Official Feedback

It is a rare case, but sometimes a company side shows a response to people's reaction on their commercials.

Recently, Daihatsu released a new version of Kakukaku-Shikajika series.

   

The clips used in this movie are all movies from past Kakukaku-Shikajika series. Therefore, this is an official MAD movie made by Daihatsu as a service to MAD movie editors. This is the fun part of internet, because it shortens the distance between industries and consumers.

Coloring People's Work

 
I usually like coloring more than drawing, so sometimes I just color in other people's illustrations. These are the images me and my friend made together for the music video of Stacha Kumikyoku I mentioned before. I focused to color with a strong secondary light source, as if they are lighted in a colorful and vivid spotlight.

Melancholic Finished

 
 
 One character and over 30 props. It was a good practice to think about coloring objects with different textures. I especially had fun with coloring flower petals and water gun.

TV Ad MAD Sample

Daihatsu's Kakukaku-Shikajika series that I wrote before is one example of TV ads that are used in MAD movies. Because  the series has more than 20 variation of ads, it is easy for editors to find materials. 

 
"For those who are sicken already to talk about ecology cars ... today I will talk about ... ecology cars."
(Oh I just love this version)

 

 
Music used as a catalyst

 

 
Resulted MAD Video, already viewed more than 180,000 times in the originally posted site.

MAD Videos

Mashed Up Videos, oftenly called AMVs in America, are called MAD Videos in Japan. They are videos that mashed up existing videos, often based on an another music.

  

Original video, famous in the name of Charlie Bit Me

 

 

Music from Kirby, used as a catalyst.

 

  

MAD Video as a result

 

In Japan, popular TV commercials are often used as a material for these MAD videos. These videos sometimes make new audience of the original commericial. I believe that being used in MAD videos can be defined as one of the status for TV commericials in Japan.

Melancholic 10

 
The image is getting bigger and bigger...added a flower, a pegion, a bandaid, etc, etc...little more to go.

Melancholic 9

 
Added a clear cube at the bottom and also jacked in a earphone to the iPhone.

Logo Design 2

 
 I think I have not uploaded this yet...I recently worked on a logo for a radio drama CD by my friend who is a radio actress. Other than "ドラマCD" and "の", I didn't use an existing font and created from the beginning.
