| Product Code | Lead | Theme | Notable Extra | |--------------|------|-------|----------------| | JUNY-001 | [A] | Debut | Behind scenes | | JUNY-123 | Yuki Chitose | Glamour focus | Multi-angle | | JUNY-135 | [B] | Office scenario | VR compatible |

| Aspect | Description | Technical Notes | |--------|-------------|-----------------| | Art Direction | “Neo‑retro” – pastel neon palettes (soft pink, teal, lavender) with grainy film overlays. | Rendered in Toon Boom Harmony, with layers exported at 4K resolution and then processed through a custom VHS‑emulation pipeline. | | Character Design | Maria’s outfit combines militaristic utility (pockets, straps) with fashionable streetwear; Yuki Chitose appears as an abstract silhouette made of animated waveform ribbons. | Designed by Kaito Mizuno, known for work on Sayonara, Polaroid. | | Music Production | Fusion of city‑pop chord progressions, analog synth pads, live electric bass, and vocal layering (double‑tracked harmonies). | Produced in Ableton Live 11, employing a Roland Juno‑106 for the main pad, and a Korg MS‑20 for the bass synth. | | Sound Design | Ambient field recordings of train stations and rain are interwoven as background texture, creating a “place‑based” atmosphere. | Recorded on a Zoom H6 in Tokyo’s Shinjuku Station, then filtered through a Granular synthesis module for a dreamy effect. | | Editing Rhythm | The edit cuts on every beat‑drop (every 4 bars), aligning visual transitions with the music’s four‑on‑the‑floor pulse. | Utilizes beat‑synchronous markers in Adobe Premiere Pro; final master delivered at 48 kHz / 24‑bit. | Nagai Maria- Yuki Chitose JUNY-123 -Fitch- -cen...
