We created the stage visuals for Superfly’s 10th Anniversary Premium LIVE “Bloom,” specifically for the song Beautiful.
At the artist’s request, we designed LED screen visuals centered around floral motifs—imagery deeply connected to Superfly’s identity—to reflect the emotional tone and lyrical essence of the song.
Our work aimed to enhance the live performance by transforming the stage into a blooming, immersive visual space.

We contributed to the visual direction of a signature scene in Fuerza Bruta – WA!! Wonder Japan Experience, the Japanese adaptation of the globally acclaimed immersive performance originating from Argentina.
In this scene, performers interacted with a massive, translucent fabric suspended from the ceiling. Our projection design transformed this surface into a shifting canvas of light and motion, synchronized with movement and choreography.
Working closely with the Argentinian creative team, we navigated cultural and technical challenges to deliver a visually rich, spatially immersive experience.

空中から降りてくる布の動きやライティングに合わせ、幻想的かつダイナミックに変化する映像を設計。アルゼンチンの演出チームとの緊密なやり取りの中で、空間全体を巻き込む没入体験の一部として視覚演出を構築しました。

Together with a large scale repairing of Odawara castle in Odawara city, Kanagawa Prefecture, Tokiwagi-Gate Samurai Hall was newly opened on the second floor of Tokiwagi-Gate at the Keep Square in the Odawara Castle Site Park. In its exhibition room, an exhibition specialized in Japanese battle gear, such as armor and swords, is held, and at the same time the resolve of Bushido and the beauty of Japanese battle gear are introduced. And in the permanently facilitated projection mapping theater, “Hanautsuyoroi”, armor-cut-into-flower, is rolling.
The story runs reminiscing about the past battle, whose remains are solidified in the armor. A warrior fought a duel with an enemy, and the enemy lay dead on a road, turning into cherry blossoms. But eventually death would also await the triumphant warrior, and he himself turned into blossoms. We wanted to show that the fiercer the battle is, the more fragile our life looks. At the scene of the duel, we took up a graceful carriage of an actor specialized in the swordsmanship into motion-capture, depicting the seasoned motion of a warrior facing the duel.
The picture is projected against the custom-made white armor and a folding screen, and the wall. By using three sets of projectors, we could reduce the inevitable shadow behind the armor to the minimum, as a result, the primal energy of life exchanged sparkles so vividly around you. This work can lead you to our trial that technology melting into a story can have the power to invite you to the vicarious joys and sorrows of the past.
