Shotaro Kaneda’s figure was big as a foot. For shooting stop motion, it’s easier to handle when the figure is bigger. However, the motorcycle was heavy, so I had a hard time making a wheelie. The headlight is powered by battery, and lights up. What made it complicated was that it automatically turned off in five minutes. I used not only the table, but also the floor to complete this shoot. I was crouching most of the time, so it was tiring than the other shoots I’ve taken. I used a supporter for my knees to protect it from getting wounded.
