If you would like to know about Japan from a different point of view (maybe a Japanese point of view), you must see this. I am a Taiwanese. Taiwanese are hugely influenced by Japanese culture; however, there are still some facts really shocked me.
I don’t think I should make more comment about this video since I am not a Japanese. Please enjoy this really cool video from Kenichi.
More about this video:
This is my final thesis project. I created info-graphic, motion piece. My objective is to make Japanese people to think about that everything happening here in Japan, isn’t that normal. So I created this video from foreigner’s point of view, rather than Japanese people’s point of view.
Both English and Japanese versions are available.
By the way, please don’t call me racist, because I am one of short, small eyes Japanese.
大学の卒業制作で制作した映像です。(英語版)
日本で生活していると、当たり前すぎて気づかない「不思議な事実」を、海外で生活した経験も生かし、外国人の視点から統計とともに映像化しました。
笑いつつも、「なんか不思議だな」と考えてもらえれば幸いです。
日本語版と英語版があります。
