Spirited Away Introduction by Jon Turner (2016)

Описание: I had been back and forth upon uploading this for quite a while now, but this was something that I did back in the summer of 2016. See the Highland Park Outdoor Movie Theater was showing Hayao Miyazaki's now classic SPIRITED AWAY for the end of their movie season. I volunteered to record an introduction for the movie prior to the film's showing. And they showed this introduction before the film started. I'm very proud of the end result (and yes, in case you're wondering, I had to literally redub ALL my lines in post-production!). We shot most of this footage at the Cook Gardens at Rutgers' Community College, but some of the footage shown in this video are from other sources, some of which were downloaded from YouTube itself. Here's the following credits:

Now some of you might be prepared to jump on me and say that SPIRITED AWAY is no longer the top-grossing movie of Japan. I know that. I'm aware of YOUR NAME supplanting it, and so I know this video might seem dated. But back when I did this intro SPIRITED AWAY was still #1 in Japan (as mentioned, this was done in the summer of 2016), hence the disclaimer at the beginning.

I hope you enjoy this intro as much as I did making it. More importantly, I wanted to do an intro which actually talks about the movie instead of just needlessly gushing over it. I mean no disrespect to John Lasseter. If his style of introducing the movie was by fawning over it, that's his style. I wanted to offer something more educational and informative to people who might not know Miyazaki or Studio Ghibli. I hope I succeeded.
