A perfect balance of the three.
You even designed an imaginary blueprint for the project.
Cormorant:That, you know, NIKE and other services that allow you to design your own (NIKE BY YOU (formerly NIKE iD). (NIKE BY YOU (formerly NIKE iD), which allows you to customize existing models on your computer. Taking a cue from that, Kamiyama's spray is used as a component, and anyone can use it to customize Keen's sandals. Among them, he jokes, "I chose this one this time.
Ishikawa:Sometimes design is the coolest when it comes to blueprints. It's the most exciting and the coolest. I love it. That was the service of Mr. Ukai.
Cormorant:Also, there are some image searches that have a watermark on the photo that doesn't disappear unless you buy it. That's why the words "ULTRA HEAVY ORDINARY STYLE" are intentionally included. In other words, someone has copied and pasted the text into an illegal format without paying for it.
Ishikawa:I see! That's how it is.
Cormorant:For both Keane and Journal Standard, we are able to do this because we have a long relationship with them. Without a relationship of trust, we would never be able to create pop-ups like this.
Ishikawa:I'm getting mad at the storefront, aren't I?
Cormorant:Or the other side is angry.
Ishikawa:Please don't do it again!" I say. But, you know, he tells everyone, "Blame it on me. Because you said so, it can't be helped. Well, it's all overstepping my authority. But honestly, it's easier if they use me as an excuse.
Cormorant:Usually, when we collaborate with a brand on a product, we make several proposals, and they ask us, "Could you do it a little better here? But if you do that, the work becomes more and more diluted. But if you do that, the work becomes more and more diluted. But with "Ultra Heavy," I was able to avoid such a situation. Or rather, I think Ken has a very good way of taking care of his work.
Ishikawa:It's not like we're at a meeting and we're saying, "How's it going?" That's not what I mean.
Will the collaboration between "Keen" and "Ultra Heavy" continue next season?
Ishikawa:I have already submitted the design. I want to do this one, even though it's a lot of work. Led Zeppelin for a while, all four of us were very busy. The song "Black Dog" was recorded in a different place for each of us, and Jimmy Page just edited it in the studio. It's kind of like that.
Cormorant:So is YMO, since the three of us are recording separately.
Ishikawa:Ultra heavy" has always been like that.
You have been teleworking for a long time.
Ishikawa:Yes, I know. But I'm not teleworking. I'm an analog person. I'm the one who doesn't do it. I'm like, "Why don't you just tell me in person? I'm not going to tell them directly. I don't have Illustrator software. It's a pass-through. But I think the secret of our success is that it works. If we were a little more careful, we would definitely fall out with each other (laughs).
Cormorant:All three of us are pretty easy-going. I mean, not to the outside world, but within the three of us, it's like, "I forgive them already.
Ishikawa:To be honest, it's surprisingly tough for me when there are three of us in other jobs. Ultra-heavy" is like a club activity. The hardest work is done by Ukai and Eto. They are the ones who make the final shots. All I have to do is kick the goal. I kick the first goal and say, "Take care of the rest" (laughs). Kamiyama goes to kick the ball, and Ukai goes to make the final shot. Kamiyama goes to kick the first goal, and Ukai goes to score the last goal.
But I have never ordered Eto-kun, Ukai-kun, or Kamiyama to do anything. That's something I've never done in my life. I just said, "If you have time, please do it. That's not my policy, it's just a habit.
INFORMATION
This is a new business model of "Journal Standard" that re-proposes the work, military, and sports filters that have been cultivated over the years.
