1. Album Graphic Design - Memorial address (I'm a sucker for gold, and even with the rainbow colored pages it still doesn't seem gaudy at all. VERY well done.)
Album Photography - RAINBOW (I would agree that this has the best graphic design if not for the very poor handling of text against rainbow colors)
2. Single Photography - Free & Easy. Very dynamic shots of ayu and the flag. Good angle, good lighting. (Tadashi Ura's painting effect on the cover almost detracts from the photo's overall mood.) Only complaint? the picture version of the CD wasn't done too well; you can tell ayu's photo was taken separately from the sky.
Single Graphic Design - For My Dear... Nice colors, i like the focus on lavender and silver... well-done logo treatment on the front. The photos were only so-so though
Single Effects & Art - Endless sorrow! Tadashi Ura's wing drawing inside it is just lovely, not to mention the layering of the 3 photos used on the front (ayu, the city, and the wing are all separate elements ^^)
3. PV Art Direction - M. Simply gorgeous. The use of white, gold, and black is just genius.
PV editing - ourselves... often seems like the only PV of ayu's where the cuts really go with the music, plus the cuts add to the overall urgent, crazy & frightening feel of the PV.
