I don't know what I was thinking, but I just decided its BPM first.
The maximum value I can currently assign in my sequencing software is BPM400.
Can I make a song with this? It became a battle with myself from there.
After struggling with the sequencing software, it turned out like this.
It's fast. It's distorted. And also explosive. It was from various things.
By the way, Hiroyuki named the song title.

When I listened to this song, I thought about someone working very hard against a deadline, so I gave it the title "DUE TOMORROW".
Video Production Information

Anyways, this song has a huge impact, and I think the key point is to follow its wave, so my first impression was to prepare several patterns of short loop videos.
Initially, I was thinking about using live-action footage of construction sites or four panel loops of city footage, but as I repeatedly listened to this song, I thought "this should be simpler", so I thought it might be good for it to appear like clean and rough GIF animations. After I decided on that, I repeatedly thought about two panel animations with several variations, and arranged them with repeated adjustments.
I thought of many ideas at TOKYO SYOKUDO while saying "this and that is good", but each idea didn't have a particular meaning. It's just from momentum! That's right.
There's quite a lot of ideas that were too good to throw away.
The TOKYO SYOKUDO team decisively agreed that "that" punchline was somehow "the only one" without any context.
