NIKE | NIKE JUKU x ATARASHII GAKKO!! [PRODUCER]
 

Japan's entrance exams are notoriously difficult. In the years leading up to college, kids may study an extra 7.5 hours on top of the school day, often attending "cram schools" (juku). Being glued to their desks studying doesn't just take a toll on their physical health but on their mental and emotional state as well. But multiple studies show that short bursts of physical activity can directly affect academic performance. So we created Nike Juku, a program aiming to help students refresh their brains through short, simple study breaks where they get their bodies moving. The Japanese power group ATARASHII GAKKO! embodied the vibe we were looking for. We collaborated with them on their single "Woo! Go!" Agency: Wieden + Kennedy Creative Director: Curro de la Villa Senior Copywriter: Nedal Ahmed, Yumiko Ota Senior Art Director: Kazuhi Yoshikawa Lead Producer: Kosuke Sasaki Account Director: Jordan Cappadocia Account Supervisors: Chelsea Hayashi, Kaede Ose Account Executive: Ryu Kaida Producers: Ty Demura, Yoko Onodera Comms Planning Director: Justin Lam Comms Planner: Joanna Fukae Strategic Planning Director: Thijs van de Wouw Strategic Planner: Rina Deguchi Studio Designers: Akane Yasuda, Shotaro Tomiyama Studio Manager: Aiwei Ichikawa Agency Editor: Vinod Vijayasankaran PR: Midori Sugama Translator: Mako Tomita Executive Creative Director: Scott Dungate Managing Director: Yosuke Suzuki Prouction: AOI Pro.

TINDER | LIVE YOUNG AGAIN [PRODUCER]
 

Although young adults in Japan have a strong desire to meet new people, pandemic restrictions prevented them from making connections and memories during their "seishun" years ("springtime of youth.") We put a new spin on seishun in Japan. Seishun doesn’t end when school does. It’s a feeling that can be seized by meeting new people and experiencing new things. The launch film tells the story of Haru, who escapes monotony and finds that love, friendship—and the occasional heartbreak—is just a swipe away on Tinder. Agency: Wieden + Kennedy Creative Directors: Max Pilwat, Nedal Ahmed Copywriters: Marina Danjo, Kensuke Tsugaru Art Director: Shohei Kawada Studio Designer: Akane Yasuda Executive Producer: Kosuke Sasaki Account Supervisor: Kana Ikushima Account Executive: Akari Saito Producers: Ty Demura, Siyun Kim, Yoko Onodera Comms Planner: Joanna Fukae Strategic Planning Director: Thijs van de Wouw Strategic Planner: Rina Deguchi Studio Manager: Aiwei Ichikawa Agency Editors: Vinod Vijayasankaran, Jacob Kim Translator: Mako Tomita Production Intern: Emi Yamashita Grey Account Director: Anthony Matsuo Head of Production: Michelle Brough Executive Creative Director: Scott Dungate Managing Director: Yosuke Suzuki Production: BWGTBLD GmbH Director: Jared Knecht Executive Producer: Julian Holland Producer: Anton Oelssner Director of Photography: Paul Ozgur Line Producer: Boong Production Manager: JJ Assistant Director: Opor Production Designer: Perb Casting Director: Kaiju Inc.

VICE | THE PAST AND PRESENT OF BOSOZOKU  [DIRECTOR]
 

Japanese motorcycle gangs have wreaked havoc since the 1970s. Known as Bosozuku, these gangs have a violent history, raging war against rival crews and cops. Gang members roamed the highways, sometimes hundreds at a time, with an array of brutal weaponry, customized bikes, and distinct crew jumpsuits. Being part of one of these motorcycle gangs was a frantic lifestyle, one that could easily lead to grievous bodily harm, and death. Youth were recruited from their early teens to join the gangs under the mentorship of an elder. It was of utmost importance to protect the reputation of the gang, to never run from a fight, even when grossly outnumbered. In recent years, with strict laws and police cracking down, Bosozoku have become nearly extinct. Yet for those who were a part of the subculture during its heyday, Bosozoku will always provide a fond memory of the recklessness of youth.

NIKE | BREAKING: SHIGEKIX [EDITOR]
 

It’s official. Breakdancing is coming to the Olympics. Officially named “breaking” by the IOC, the sport will be part of the 2024 Summer Games in Paris. Breakdancers Ami and Shigekix are among the best in the world. This film is a celebration of their skills before we see them embark on their Road to Paris by competing at the 2022 Breaking World Championships in Seoul. This film showcases our dancers by thinking differently about dancing. We felt that merging existing footage of the dancers and processing it with AI generated images could provide the visual power and unpredictable beauty to the message that we wanted to deliver. We linked with Harald Schaack at Grotesk to produce these mind-blowing AI generated images using Stable Diffusion. Agency: Wieden + Kennedy Creative Director: Curro de la Villa Art Director: Shohei Kawada Copywriter: Yumiko Ota Head of Production: Michelle Brough Producer/Offline Editor: Ty Demura Brand management: Jordan Cappadocia, Chelsea Hayashi, Ryu Kaida Online Editor: Vinod Vijayasankaran Executive Creative Director: Scott Dungate Managing Director: Yosuke Suzuki

AUDI | E-TRON X KO SHIBASAKI  [PRODUCER]
 

The level of awareness in Japan regarding environmental issues and sustainability is still comparatively low. With this mind, we made a film introducing Audi’s first all-electric car “e-tron” to Japan by partnering with actress and singer Ko Shibasaki. This film puts the breathtaking shots of nature on full display to remind you how close we are to losing it. We also collaborated on the composition the song too, now available on all streaming platforms.

VICE | A FOOD TOUR OF THE HOMI PROJECTS [DP & EDITOR]
 

The Homi Projects are a massive housing complex consisting of 67 buildings located in Toyota City (where the car company got its name from) in Aichi Prefecture. Of the 7,000 residents who live there, approximately 3,000 of them are South American (mostly Brazilian and Peruvian), making it one of the most unique immigrant housing complexes in Japan. We follow acclaimed photographer Keisuke Nagoshi, who lived in the housing complex for over three years, on a tour through his old neighborhood as he catches up with various residents and indulges in the food they prepare.

VICE | SUPER RATS [DIRECTOR]
 

For decades, setting traps and putting out poison did the trick when it came to getting rid of rats. But after years of city life, some rodents have begun to genetically mutate, developing a resistance to poison and a gift for outsmarting traps. These “super rats” are on the rise in metropolitan areas across the globe and they’re getting smarter, stronger, and larger in number every day. VICE Japan sat down with a handful of experts studying these super rats to hear exactly how the rodents got so resilient, and find out what—if anything—can be done to get them under control. Producer: Ty Demura Camera: Kevin Salehpour, Anthony Knight, Naotomo Umewaka Editors: Ty Demura, Kilala Otobe Production Assistants: Nojima Arakawa, Masayuki Katsuno, Yoshito Akimoto Executive Producer: Bingo Sato Head of Content: Kentaro Kawaguchi Head of Production: Michinori Saigo Production Coordinators: Takuya Takada, Yuichi Abiko Channel Manager: Hideki Kobayashi Production Manager: Kentaro Suzuki Assistant Production Manager: Nojima Arakawa Post Production Manager: Akira Kamitani Post Production Coordinator: Kilala Otobe Global Executive Producers: Eddy Moretti, Shane Smith, Surooshi Alvi, Jim Czarnecki, Hosi Simon, Alex Miller Music Courtesy Of: Group A, Lisachris, Nino Furuhata Special Thanks: Ikari Shook, Hokkaido University, University of Tokyo Archival Materials Courtesy of: Ikari Shook, Ikebukuro Public Health Center, Ben Takayamada, Spotmatik/Pixta
