Korean video artist Kojer inserts Studio Ghibli characters into real-world footage
South Korean videomaker Kojer created a video that seamlessly blends beloved Studio Ghibli characters into live-action real-world settings. The project pays homage to over thirty years of the studio's work, which was founded in 1985 by Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata. The video features characters from films including "Spirited Away," "Howl's Moving Castle," "Princess Mononoke," and "My Neighbor Totoro." Kojer's compositing makes the animated figures appear convincingly integrated into actual filmed environments.
