Video Production Information

VJ GYO

Using a picture of a hitch hiker girl, I aimed for a positive and driving image, with colorful tones and rhythmic compositions.
As for the heroine, I drew her with a nostalgic anime taste, and I was really at ease drawing her in this sort of cheerful, lively image, but since I tried to have her match the image of the song, maybe it was too much...
However, if you take the video as a whole, it's a lot more specific to the song than a lot of IIDX videos up until now have been, and is very bright and refreshing with a lighthearted groove, so I gave it just the right amount of skillful overdrive, and I think you'll have comfortable speed while playing it.
Rather than a long trip with no money for food and travel expenses, it feels like going to the venue of an outdoor event (exciting & cheerful & thrilling).
