Backlight -replica-Vaundy

Backlight – replica –

This commercial powerfully showcases the unique, shadow-enhancing finish of KATE’s LIGHTS ON SHADOW by layering animation over live action.

The transition from black-and-white animation to color, followed by live-action bursting onto the screen, conveys a clear sense of beauty and growing confidence.

Further accentuating the dynamism and strength depicted in the visuals is Vaundy’s track “Backlight -replica-.” The tense, powerful band sound is striking, and combined with his bold, expansive vocals, it evokes an unstoppable forward-driving energy.
