Spooky Graphic to Animate Music Video for Jero, NHK

posted on by Egan Loo
"Hare Butai" by U.S. enka singer Jerome Charles White, Jr. to run next month

The Japanese design firm Spooky Graphic is animating a music video for "Hare Butai" ("Gala"), a song by American enka singer Jerome Charles White, Jr. that will run during NHK's Minna no Uta (Everyone's Songs) music television program from December to January. As a 26-year-old African-American singer with a Japanese maternal grandmother, "JERO" debuted in Japan earlier this year with a top-5 single sung in the style of enka (Japanese folk songs). NHK has been airing Minna no Uta, a rotating lineup of animated music videos that run between its other programs, for 47 years. Similar to DLE (The Frogman Show, Eagle Talon The Movie - The Chancellor Only Lives Twice), Spooky Graphic produces its animation with Flash computer graphics.
