Genten 2: Milestones

The latest video I directed for Onitsuka Tiger, “Genten Episode 2: Milestones / 軌跡” is out now. The Japanese version is here.

About the video:
Since being founded in 1949, Onitsuka Tiger has always been dedicated to innovation. Genten Episode 2: Milestones follows the company’s commitment to product development via a series of interviews with the individuals who from the start worked collaboratively and intensely to make detailed, yet holistic products for the Japanese market. Together, they pushed the potential of sports through prototyping, innovation and teamwork.

1949年の創業以来、オニツカタイガーは常に 新しいアイデアを追求し続けてきました。Genten Episode 2: Milestones(軌跡)は当初からプロダクトを創造してきたメンバーへのインタビューと、日本用に発売されたデイテイ-ルにこだわったプロダクトを通して、オニツカタイガーの<プロダクト開発にかける情熱>をクローズアップしました。
また、当時のオニツカタイガーは 試作品、新しいアイデア、チームワークで(トップ選手からのリクエストに応えようと作成し続けたプロダクトを通して)スポーツ競技の可能性に挑戦してきました。

Big thanks to Iwaoka-san and the Onitsuka Tiger team for their constant support through the project. Thanks to AQ for project management Toshiki Senoue for his excellent camerawork and translation, Thien Huynh for doing the voiceover and Lullatone for providing excellent music, as always!
