Video Production Information
Hideaki Tsutsumi
Tsutsumi here again.
This video consists of hydrogen atoms and blue tones.
The video is a lot more rough than the CG that I usually edit.
Incidentally, there are some parts in the movie that may induce head shaking, especially the "hydro" parts.
Hopefully, I'll see some of you soon.
