The Sylvanian Explorers held a photo shoot at a miniatures studio in Minami-Machida.
In addition to Zaki☆Yuri and Boss, viewers Tebanaka and Nero joined this time. Please watch the video to get a better idea of the atmosphere of the miniature studio.
(00:00) Hello everyone, this is Zaki☆Yuri. Today, I was invited by a viewer to a miniature studio in Minami-Machida. This studio is where you can take pictures of props, dolls, figures, stuffed animals, etc., using many miniature sets like this. There are more than 500 different kinds of props, and you can use all of them as much as you want!
(01:19) The booths look like this, and you can rent up to 4 sets for as little as 2 hours. The one I rented this time was booth E, which can accommodate up to 5 adults. It’s a self-promotion shoot, so you can use your smartphone without any fuss, or you can rent a full-fledged SLR camera.
(01:58) Now, this time we rented these 4 sets with different atmospheres. This is a rococo style room. This is a chic little study. This is a mysterious forest that would be perfect for Sylvanian Families. There are also seasonal backgrounds like this.
(03:34) Please take a look at the photos I took at the studio. I took all of them with my iPhone. By the way, this studio is 1/6 scale, so it is a little bit big for Sylvanian dolls. But you can take a lot of cute pictures if you get creative.
(04:25) Next is a photo from Boss. Photographs really show each person’s individuality, don’t they? You can take pictures that you wouldn’t be able to take at home just by placing furniture and accessories on your favorite miniature set.
(05:30) Next up is Tebanaka. It seems like he took photos for a daily project on Twitter. The project involves having someone visit the room of his alter ego, Vania-chan, one by one every day. It would be fun to take a lot of pictures at the studio and upload one every day to Twitter!
(06:35) Finally, you may recognize this back view. Yes! This is a photo of Nero, who is well known for making very nice dresses, which I love. The photo with many children in voluminous dresses looked like a ball. He also made matching dresses with the boss for today’s event!
(07:48) So, the two hours went by in a flash. By the way, the price was 6500 yen for 2 hours. There are various plans available, so please search for “miniature studio.” Thank you very much for inviting me to this wonderful event. Photography is really great, isn’t it? See you soon!
