In a bid to promote its work for the upcoming Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL) in Singapore, Japanese construction firm Taisei Corporation has released an animated video.
The video is based on a character named Ayano, a Japanese engineer, who leaves Japan and goes to Singapore to work on the a new MRT (subway) station on the TEL. The two-minute video also shows the lifelikeness of the iconic Marina Bay area.
It is directed by Makoto Shinkai, who rose to fame for his work on ‘Your Name', which was the fifth highest-grossing non-English film worldwide in 2016 and won awards at the 60th BFI London Film Festival.
Previously, an episode of a Japanese anime show called ‘A Place Further Than The Universe’, also featured several tourist attractions and iconic landmarks of Singapore in their lifelikeness.
