I was so impressed with a KOMADORI Bros. video clip on NHKs Digital Stadium, I just had to track them down.

At the time, they were International Academy of Media Arts and Sciences. We exchanged emails, drank beers, and shared DV stories. I asked if I could present their work to an international audience on TOKYODV. They were excited about the exposure, and I was honored to show their art.

From NHKs website, when this video debuted – “Ohashi and Okamoto graduated from the International Academy of Media Arts and Sciences…

(In this video) the gym outfit of Mr. Okamoto who desperately tries harder will make you excited. This is an absurd home video of this passionate guy. Sit back and enjoy the show.”

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.

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.

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.

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..
