An omnidirectional maze of marvels, this motion graphics animation takes inspiration from the neon lights, towering architecture, public transport and tight spaces of Tokyo to create a strange and strikingly immersive experience. The ricocheting ride through the urban environment reimagines the city as a fever dream of fantastically illuminated buildings, tilting streets and trains, and anonymous faces whizzing by just out of grasp.
Tokyo Light Odyssey is an interactive 360° video. As it plays, click and drag your cursor on the video player to explore each scene.
