Lexus "Next Chapter" from Caleb Slain on Vimeo.

Use headphones!  IG: @calebslain

5 productions. 4 countries. 3 continents. This sonic experience is the reveal film for the first ever Lexus all-electric car. The creative challenge was to express the imperceptible side of nature through sound, exemplifying the erosion between driver and natural world. Logistically, this was my first time directing any part of a shoot remotely (about 75% remote), which at one point involved directing two productions in Japan and Thailand simultaneously. Very fun challenge, made possible by the extraordinary talent who contributed around the globe. 

Friends have asked how much of the footage we filmed ourselves, so I’ll come out and say there are THREE shots in this video we licensed and modified instead of filmed. See if you can guess them!

Tsubasa Yamaguchi's Blue Period Manga Gets Stage Play Adaptation in Spring 2022

    In addition to the ongoing TV anime, a stage play adaption of Tsubasa Yamaguchi's coming-of-age manga Blue Period is set to be performed at The Galaxy Theatre in Tokyo from March 25 to April 3, 2022, under the title Blue Period The Stage. Pre-sales of tickets will be accepted from November 25 to December 6, then general sales will begin on February 12, 2022.

  The manga author has posted her comments on the play's official website: "In the 'raw art' of the stage, which is different from manga, I wondered how the very simple work of drawing pictures, the expression of the characters and the story would be expressed on the large stage. I'm looking forward to seeing what the view from the audience seats will be like."

  Kaori Miura, best known for her writing/directorial works for the Saiyuki stage play series, serves as the director on a script by Masafumi Hata. And 23-year-old Kurumu Okamiya (Tsurumaru Kuninaga in the Touken Ranbu musicals) is cast as the protagonist Yatora Yaguchi, a high school student aiming to attend Tokyo University of the Arts, the most difficult art university in Japan.

  Okamiya says, "When I read the original manga, I was strongly moved by Yatora, who confronts setbacks and big obstacles with his strong conviction. The many words scattered throughout the story also pierced my heart. I'm looking forward to weaving this story with my wonderful co-stars and the staff! I will dye it blue with heat. Please support us!"

The New Beginning USA Night 1 - 1/30/2019; Full Giant Baba Memorial Card Released: Tanahashi/Yoshitatsu v. Miyahara/Sekimoto

The first of the New Beginning USA shows took place last night in LA.  We all know the issues with these cards, and I’ve already bloviated at length about them. They are what they are. 

The New Beginning USA - 1/30/2019, Globe Theater, Los Angeles, CA

Alex Coughlin TLD Clark Connors (10:00)

Jonathan Gresham d. Tyler Bateman (Modified Jackknife, 11:36)

Colt Cabana d. Shane Taylor (Clutch Hold, 10:22)

Lance Archer & Davey Boy Smith Jr. [SZKG] d. Marty Scurll & Brody King [Villain Enterprises] (Archer > King, Killer Bomb, 13:09)

Jeff Cobb [FREE] d. Karl Fredericks (Tour of the Islands, 6:57)

David Finlay Jr. [Lifeblood] d. Chuck Taylor [CHAOS] (Trash Panda, 15:31)

One Night Only Roppongi Vice: Juice Robinson & Tracy Willams [Lifeblood] d. Trent Beretta & Rocky Romero [CHAOS] (Robinson > Romero, Pulp Friction, 32:20)

Y’know, I love me some Roppongi Vice, but I am not sure we needed a 32:20 prelude tag match for Juice Robinson v. Trent Beretta, which will be Friday. Finlay v. Chuckie was No DQ, and pretty surprised Finlay won that, if I’m honest. Doubly surprised Brody King took the fall in that match. Cobb must have squashed Fredericks, good grief... No word yet as to video release of this show.

AJPW released the full card for the Giant Baba Memorial show on 2/19/2019, today being the 20th Anniversary of Baba’s death at age 61 from cancer.

The main event of the show is an absolute stunner: IWGP Heavyweight Champion Hiroshi Tanahashi will be teaming with former partner, and current AJPW freelancer, Yoshitatsu, against AJPW’s Triple Crown champion Kento Miyahara and BJW World Strong (and AJPW World Tag Team, and ZERO-1 AWA World Heavyweight) champion Daisuke Sekimoto. Sadly, I know who’s taking the fall here, but this should be a GREAT match.

Tomoaki Honma, whose career began in BJW before working in AJPW and NJPW, will be in an 8-man match with Young Lion Ren Narita, BJW’s Yuji Okabayashi & AJPW’s Naoya Nomura. The only real change from what we knew before, is Naomichi Marufuji v. Masaaki Mochizuki has become a tag match. 

Abdullah the Butcher’s retirement ceremony will have all sorts of luminaries as part of it, including Keiji Muto, Stan Hansen, and the original Tiger Mask, Satoru Sayama. Should be a real hoot of an event, honestly.

Full card for the event:

Giant Baba Memorial Battle Royale: Mitsuo Momota, Kim Duk, MEN’s Teioh, TARU, Ryuji Hijikata, Yuto Aijima, Joel Deaton, Masao Inoue, Tsuyoshi Kikuchi, Masahito Kakihara, Tamon Honda, Yasu Urano (Referee: Mighty Inoue)

Masanobi Fuchi [AJPW], Yuma Aoyagi [AJPW] & Yoshiaki Fujiwara [FREE] v. Taichi, TAKA Michinoku & Yoshinobu Kanemaru [SZKG]

Eight Man Street Fight Bunkhouse Tornado Tag Team Deathmatch: Atsushi Onita [FREE], Kendo Kashin [FREE], Hideki Suzuki [FREE] & Hideki Hosaka [FREE] v. Shuji Ishikawa [AJPW], Great Kojika [BJW], Mitsuya Nagai [Dradition] & Hikaru Sato [Pancrase MISSION]

Tomoaki Honma [NJPW], Yuji Okabayashi [BJW], Naoya Nomura [AJPW] & Ren Narita [NJPW] v. Kazushi Miyamoto [FREE], Tomohiko Hashimoto [A-TEAM], Daichi Hashimoto [BJW] & Takuya Nomura [BJW]

Abdullah the Butcher Retirement Ceremony: Guests: Keiji Muto, Stan Hansen, Satoru Sayama, Hisashi Shinma

Naomichi Marufuji [NOAH] & Jinsei Shinzaki [Michinoku Pro] v. Masaaki Mochizuki & Shun Skywalker [Dragon Gate]

Jake Lee & Koji Iwamoto [AJPW] v. SANADA & BUSHI [Los Ingobernables] v. Ayato Yoshida [K-DOJO] & Shota Umino [NJPW]

NOSAWA Rongai [Tokyo Gurentai] & Kaz Hayashi [W-1] v. Mil Mascaras & Dos Caras

Jun Akiyama [AJPW], Takao Omori [AJPW] & Taiyo Kea [FREE] v. Satoshi Kojima [NJPW], Yuji Nagata [NJPW] & Osamu Nishimura [FREE]

Kento Miyahara [AJPW] & Daisuke Sekimoto [BJW] v. Hiroshi Tanahashi [NJPW] & Yoshitatsu [FREE]

The next show of the New Beginning USA will be tomorrow, 2/1/2019, although much like last night’s show, I won’t be blogging about it until Saturday, which is also when the first night of The New Beginning in Sapporo takes place. See you then. There will be a title match main event, and Tomoyuki Oka makes his US debut in his Dominator Great O-Kharn gimmick.

- 2/1/2019, Grady Cole Center, Charlotte, NC

Karl Fredericks v. Clark Connors

Colt Cabana & John Skyler v. Lance Archer [SZKG] & Shane Taylor

Dominator Great O-Kharn USA Debut: Tracer X v. Dominator Great O-Kharn

Jeff Cobb [FREE] & Jonathan Gresham v. Marty Scurll & Brody King [Villain Enterprises]

Alex Coughlin v. Davey Boy Smith Jr. [SZKG]

David Finlay Jr. & Tracy Williams [Lifeblood] v. Chuck Taylor & Rocky Romero [CHAOS]

IWGP US Heavyweight Championship: Juice Robinson [Lifeblood] © v. Trent Beretta [CHAOS]
