Kazuo Oga Paints a Landscape



Here is a terrific Youtube video showing Studio Ghibli background artist extrordinaire Kazuo Oga demonstrate his skills. The song is really terrific (I wonder who it is?), courtesy of the person who, ahem, "assembled" this video.

As soon as I can afford it, I'm definitely buying the Kazuo Oga Blu-Ray. His Ghibli backgrounds will look spectacular in 1080p, and heaven only knows how long we'll wait for the films to appear on BD.

The song is "Signs of love" by Moby.

Sounds like Moby.

Hmm...Moby....Florian....Dude, Kraftwerk!

Heh heh heh, yeah that would be so cool, Florian from Kraftwerk hanging out at the Ghibli Blog, heh heh.

Thanks for naming the song, I really enjoyed that one.

You might wish to head over here:

and grab either this or the lower-res versions, mentioned in the related torrents in description.

Though, buying this BluRay is a definitive must - no transcode can measure up to watching the original 40GB of BluRay footage, not to mention having the magnificent DVD/BluRay box set on your shelf!

Thanks a lot, Neo. IF you check the "Download These Fansubs" section, you'll see it's already included. And I second your endorsement on buying the DVD. Kazuo Oga's paintings would look magnificent on a big-screen tv.
