Ueno-Hirokoji Exit Vision
East Japan Railway Company｜2024
WOW was in charge of producing and directing the video content for the new large curved signage “Ueno Hirokoji Vision” at the Ueno Hirokoji intersection, which opened on January 2024. This vision was newly installed next to the facade of the second Ueno Station building, which was completed in 1932. From this huge signage measuring 9.5m wide and 5.0m tall, original 2D and 3D content as well as time-based content will be displayed.
Ueno Station, known as the “Northern Gateway to Tokyo,” has been beloved as a vibrant city where various cultures blend together. WOW has created four contents featuring pandas, which have been loved in Ueno. A high-energy panda, equivalent to the energy of the city, appears at Ueno Hirokoji Intersection. In “Panda's Daily Life” and “Panda's Time Announcement,” instead of describing pandas realistically, we used adorable pandas with human-like movements. For the content featuring Kabuki, actual Kabuki actors were recorded using motion capture with the corporation from Shochiku Co., Ltd. The panda performs a dynamic Kabuki pose. In the “Festival Panda Dance,” a real and powerful panda performs breakdancing, themed around major festivals in the Tohoku region. The dancers were recorded using motion capture to pursue the realism of the movements. The choreography was done by Papaya Suzuki, and the sound was handled by Mitsuyuki Miyake of mihimaru GT.
