We drew Yui Ogura on the blackboard for real. High quality blackboard art movie is released!

Yui Ogura, a voice actress and artist, has released an art movie of the jacket photo of her new single "White Blooming Flowers" released today, March 14, 2012, which she drew on a blackboard in high quality.

Yui Ogura is a popular voice actress who has appeared in many popular anime such as "Hinaroji: from Luck & Logic" as Karin Kiriya, "Tsuden Children" as Ayaka Uone, and "UQ HOLDER!: Magic Teacher Negima! 2" as Natsu Butin, as well as an artist. 9 October, 2017 On October 9 (Mon.), 2017, she held a live concert "Smiley Cherry" at the National Grand Hall in Pacifico Yokohama, Kanagawa.
⇒She is a popular voice actress who has been active in the music industry for many years. The official report of the live, which will be followed by the 2nd LIVE TOUR, has arrived!

Ogura released her new single "White Blooming Flowers" on March 14, and the art movie of the jacket photo was shown on a blackboard with high quality drawings. The blackboard art was drawn by Rana Suzuki, a student at Musashino Art University.
The video shows the skillful technique of freely expressing the blackboard in a school classroom using chalk, and even the smallest details, such as the texture of Ms. Ogura's skin, are realistically expressed in this magnificent masterpiece.
It took approximately six hours of painstaking work, but the video summarizes the production process in approximately one minute.
In the end roll, you can see Rana Suzuki herself vigorously erasing the work 10 minutes after its completion.

All the songs on the blackboard are based on the theme of "graduation," and the music video also includes a scene in which Ms. Ogura appears in a school classroom wearing a school uniform, under the theme of graduation.

In addition, the DVD included in the limited time-only edition of the 8th Single "Shiroi Saku Hana (White Flower)" includes the music videos of the lead song "Shiroi Saku Hana (White Flower)" and the lyric song "Kakegaerenai Moment" as well as the live videos of "Happy Strawberry" and "Tinkling Smile" from the noon concert of the live "Smiley Cherry" held last year. The package also includes live footage of "Happy Strawberry" and "Tinkling Smile" from the daytime performance of last year's "Smiley Cherry" LIVE. This is the largest package ever released.

A poster handover event will be held in Osaka, Nagoya, and Tokyo to commemorate the release of this album. The deadline for application is March 16 (Fri.), so please check the official website for details on how to apply.
