Hello Friends!

From Ryan:

I currently feel highly inspired to create music that fits a specific time of day; the time of twilight to the time of night. I was reading the manga Noragami and came across this interaction between Yato and Yukine:

Yato: “Wow. Talk about Red. You like Sunsets Yukine?” Yukine says: “…I hate them.” Yato then says: “Good Answer. Twilight is the dividing line between day and night. It’s when beings of this world go inside to hide from the darkness and beings of other world come out to play, blending in with the darkness. Men of the past called it Ōmagatoki…”

I love this idea of our physical realm coming into contact with the Yōkai, Ayakashi and other spirits and demons. I will continue to explore more of these feelings as our second collaboration project continues.

私は現在、特定の時間帯に合う音楽を作成することに非常に刺激を受けています。 夕暮れから夜の時間。 ノラガミという漫画を読んでいて、矢藤と雪音のやりとりに出くわしました。

矢藤「うわー。レッドの話ね。夕焼けの雪音が好きなの?」 雪音「…大嫌い」 ヤトは、「良い答えです。トワイライトは昼と夜の境界線です。それは、この世界の存在が暗闇から身を隠すために中に入り、他の世界の存在が遊びに出てきて、闇に溶け込むときです. 昔はオマガトキと呼ばれていた…」

私たちの物理的な領域が妖怪、あやかし、その他の精霊や悪魔と接触するというこのアイデアが大好きです。 私たちの2番目のコラボレーションプロジェクトが続くにつれて、私はこれらの感情をさらに探求し続けます.

From Ryo:

私とRyanのコラボレーションプロジェクト「逢魔時」の3作目を撮影しました!
Ryanは日本の「ノラガミ」という漫画を読み、これにインスパイアされてこの曲を作成しました。「黄昏時の夕方から夜にかけて妖怪や魔物が出てくるような状態をイメージしてこの曲を作った」とのことで、これを日本語で「逢魔時」と言うそうです。今回もこのイメージに合う場所と時間帯を選び今回の撮影を行いました。
この場所は日本の静岡県藤枝市にある小さな町です。動画の中に出てくる中学校は全校生徒わずか40人ほどしかいないとても小さな学校です。
個人的に小さい時によく来てた場所なので、撮影しながら懐かしさも感じられました。
彼の素晴らしい曲に合わせてどうやって映像を表現するか?と考えるのがとても楽しかったです。いつもありがとう!

Ryan and I shot the third piece for our collaborative project “Ōmagatoki” Ryan was inspired to create this song by reading the Japanese manga “Noragami”. He says, “I wrote this song based on the image of a state in which monsters and demons appear during the twilight hours of evening and night.” We chose a place and time that fit this image for this shoot.

This location is a small town in Fujieda, Shizuoka, Japan. The junior high school in the video is a very small school with only about 40 students in total.

I personally used to visit this place when I was little, so I felt a sense of nostalgia while filming.

I had a lot of fun thinking, “How can I express the images to his wonderful music?” Thank you so much for everything!

  1. Once again, a great video was completed! I feel that when I shoot a video after listening to your music, the scenery I usually see changes into something special. I can receive such special power from your songs! I look forward to seeing your next one.
    Thank you so much my dear friend 😊🤝✨

  2. 静岡県藤枝市の片田舎の夕暮れ時、とマッチした音楽を楽しませて頂きました(^^♪

  3. It's a beautiful place. I could feel the photographer's desire to convey something.

    I felt that the matching of the song and the time zone was perfect:D

  4. It is both strange and fresh that you take pictures of Japanese landscapes. After all, the camera work seems to be you. This is a great video of Fujisawa, Japan. I was impressed. Also the BGM is great. Thanks for making it public.

  5. 藤枝市瀬戸谷をシネマティックに撮影に撮影され、更にBGMが日本的旋律の要素も入っています。

  14. Very beautiful cinematic footage my friend and the scenery was amazing!
    藤枝市瀬戸谷を題材にして、良きヒントになりました。真似します(^^)

  15. This is exactly how I pictured Japan in my head! I wanted to go to a place like this on this trip, but I'm sorry I only captured the city! 😁😁

  16. The scenery of the town is totally familiar to me in Japan, yet the clever cutting and music made it look so cinematic and wonderful!
    Great editing! 🤩👍✨🎵

  17. What a nice collaboration! Love the music, as always, and love the footage from @Goodbyes are emotion ! Many nice shots and ambiences, that go so perfectly with the music by you, Ryan. Well done. Don’t know why, but loved the plants at 2:14 ! Looking forward to more like this 🙂 warm greetings from Lisbon

  18. Cinematic shooting is fun! I also like this method of photography. I have tried several times, but it still takes time. It was filmed in Shizuoka. Do you live there? There are so many good things that make for a good movie!
