Tokyo MinYo Club - "Higashi Zishi": Director / Art Director
CONCEPT:
In this music video, I wanted to share the multiple influences of the band, in terms of music, but also in terms of life style. Enjoying good time all together as a family, including the skateboard and other urban cultures, etc... but by keeping many traditional aspects, rice field, ocean side, traditional illustration (with graffiti touch) in order to illustrate the spirit of the Min'yō (民謡) (a style of Japanese accompanied folk singing). Showing Yutaka san, the shamisen player and leader of the band, in multiple places, in solo or with someone else, was the main idea. I wanted to express the eclectic part of the band by mixing modern and dynamic editing and motion graphics, contrasting with some cinematographic stages.
Taking part of this project and joining the collective is very inspiring and exciting… the band is leaded by @oyama_yutaka and his vision of music and also his values cross mine ! A constant evolution, mix and fusion of styles and talents…
