TOKYODV Video Log

On my way to another shoot in Yoyogi Park, I stumbled upon the Digiko Girls ‘performing’ outside Hachiko exit in Shibuya.

The sun glistened off their shiny black boots as they squeeked out their latest tune..

No one seemed to mind they couldn’t sing since they provided colorful energy on an otherwise monotonous day.

Cherry blossom season in Japan means one thing; penis worship time!!

Released in 2001, Rob Pongi introduces us to the sights and sounds of Japan’s Shinto Fertility Festival (Kanamara Matsuri), in Kawasaki.. Rob reminds us of the often forgotten 11th Commandment – Thou Shalt Worship Penis.

Silly little commercial for the KOMADORI Bros. t-shirt..

Woman looks seductively into camera, wanting, needing something. Woman gets startled, grabs to protect her most cherished possession(s); the t-shirt.

Unfortunately, I only have one medium t-shirt left in stock. The quality is great and design original. If interested, order here.

The Digiko Dunlop Girls perform, what I believe to be a popular Puffy song at the time; Cant remember the title.

There were many girls performing at the Tokyo Motor Show that day, but I was most impressed with this group. They captured the pure, innocent silliness often associated with radial tires. :D.

Related – WATCH the most recent Digiko Girls performance here..

Two Japanese girls play frisbee on a lazy afternoon.. then, from a bionic stroke of luck, they end up fighting, wrestling, and shooting each other with squirt guns.. This is Japan. ;)

We had a lot of fun shooting this clip. Rented a Cube, bought a six-pack, and played around with ideas..

The physical size of the video is really small; unfortunately, my external drive crashed before exporting back to tape, so I lost everything. All I had left is what you see; a lo-fi export for web encoding… I’ve moved on..

Buy the newly designed, original, organic clothing here.

Here we have the Toyo Tire Girls snarling for the camera. For some reason, they reminded me of rattle snakes about to strike. From the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show..

Gundam is influential in a lot of KOMADORI work; Ohashi-san is a huge Gundam fan. In this video, the Brothers climb into big, Gundam versions of themselves and battle it out with purple light-sabers and finger-ray guns..
