Kawasaki ‘Frontale’ Vs Chiba
Our mate Takeshi had tickets to a J-League game and invited us. We live in Kawasaki but he is originaly from Chiba!
When we first arrived and tried one of the gates, I couldn’t believe the line. Honestly it was the longest que I have ever seen, and by the time I found the end I was 10min from the stadium!! Luckily we realised our tickets also worked on another gate which was completely free
The crowd was quite pumped, home side fans even had full drum kit, and the teams were close in the ranks. Fun match but as with Aus all they Star-Players are over in Euro-Land.
End result 1-1, but I’m pretty sure I was safe from any potential Riots (like I saw in Rio!) anyways.

Ebi Chan is THE current model in japan, shes everywhere. Shot with 4 similar actoresses, CGI heads were tracked over to make it seem like there were 5 Ebi Chans (surely a dream for young Japanese guys!). Unfortunately this project was almost finished by the time I started on it.
This shot was edited out and asked for more work to be done incase it was re-inserted, this is where I entered. So I had 3D elements and a render of the existing comp. Mostly adding back detail, clean up etc. In the end they still left it out, oh well. Worse is that I missed the shoot!
The fully finished commercial can bee seen here on you tube.

The cherry blossoms were in bloom even earlier this year, with the blame squarly on Global warming screwing things up. But as usual everything came and went within a 2 week period! The peak of Sakura sees Yoyogi Park filling with people for Hanami (aka “gettin’ smashed under the trees”).
