"Wishing" JPN Cover - Live Action Re:Zero Music Video 【Re:ゼロから始める異世界生活】レム/カバー曲

After many months, the Re:Zero Fan Music Video (Starring Rem) has finally arrived! I've been a huge fan of Re:Zero ever since it started airing, and even though the show has ended (only for now, I hope. Praying for a Season 2!) I wanted to make something to try and capture some of the magic of the Anime in Live Action. This is my first attempt to make a Live-Action Anime music video, but it shares many elements I researched and experimented with in my own Live-Action Anime trailer: Angelic Magica (based on Madoka Magica.) If you'd like to read about what those elements are, and more, then please check out my blog: https://www.kpulgarvidal.com/blog-1 Hope you enjoy! Credits: Created by Rewritten Pictures and Kenneth Pulgar-Vidal Wishing Cover sung by: @rinahoshino Directed by, Shot by, and Edited by: Kenneth Pulgar-Vidal Rem - Rina Hoshino Subaru - Ian Pulgar-Vidal and Kenneth Pulgar-Vidal AD - Carmen Luz Pulgar-Vidal and Francisco Pulgar-Vidal Costume Alteration - Rina Hoshino Hair and Makeup- Liz Scurlock Sound Engineer - Miles Senzaki Wishing Cover recorded at: Grandma's Dojo This video is purely meant for research, as it is among the first of my experiments in bringing Live-Action Anime to film. #rezero #rem #anime
