Taisho University, Shimoda City, and Shizuoka Bank Shimoda Branch partnered, and students from the Faculty of Expression at Taisho University produced video works＼(^o^)／
Under the unified theme “Another Town Story,” students freely created digital works using Shimoda’s town heritage as content. During the Izu Shirahama Jinja Shrine grand festival, they conducted four days of fieldwork from October 27 to 30, set in Izu Shirahama.
Five groups produced five works, each with a distinct personality: some leaned toward a documentary style, others opened up cinematic worlds in short form, some drew you into tales of the gods, others featured bright interviews with visitors talking about Izu Shirahama, and one showcased razor-sharp dance that kept your eyes glued—each offered a unique worldview that kept us captivated until the end.
Please be sure to watch all the works (^○^)
