Sunao Katabuchi
Born in 1960, and an alumnus of Nihon University's Faculty of Arts Department, Katabuchi's collaborations with renowned director Hayao Miyazaki began during Katabuchi's studies in animation and Miyazaki was a guest lecturer. The collaborations began while Katabuchi, still a student, worked on Miyazaki's film's screenplays, such as “Kiki's Delivery Service” (1989). Katabuchi made his directorial debut in the Lassie TV Series (1996), then went on to direct Studio 4℃'s Princess Arete (2001), and direct/screen write TV series “BLACK LAGOON” (2006). Recent projects include “Mai Mai Miracle” (2009), a drama film/animation following the adventures of Shinko, a young girl living in Hofu, Yamaguchi Prefecture in the 1950's-1960's, whose popularity spread through word of mouth, and resulted in a long-running theatrical release across Japan.
