BEYOND THE DREAM
WOW magazine 112 - Dec. 8th, 2016
61st Annual Arima Kinen promotional film “BEYOND THE DREAM” released
WOW and EPOCH have handled direction and production duties on the promotional film “BEYOND THE DREAM”, commemorating the 61st Arima Kinen, to be held on December 25, 2016 (Sun.).
The setting is the mystical Misuzu Lake, enveloped in fog and silence, seemingly set apart from the world of man.
As a veil of darkness descends, horses appear left and right and gallop over the surface of the lake.
Eventually, the horses become avatars of flame, fading away before the break of day...
We used the world’s largest water screen system, at a height of 18 m and a width of 40 m, plus drones and more, and took place at Lake Misuzu, in a corner of Utsukushigahara in Nagano Prefecture. The appeal of horses—their grandeur, their elegance, and their dynamism—is depicted in the motifs of water, light, and flame, and the horses are shown galloping with grace and beauty in a solemn natural setting devoid of human presence.
