The film "Late Businessman" drew inspiration from the financial crisis depicted in the movie "The Big Short." In 2005, amidst the prosperity of Wall Street, the project reflected the transition of financial industry professionals from a relaxed state to urgency and pressure due to the financial crisis. The overall filming employed frontal and profile shots to reduce depth perception, increasing direct accessibility to the subjects. This approach aimed to create a strong impression, sacrificing spatial sensation to simplify the portrayal of subjects and focus more intensely on their characteristics.

Furthermore, as it was a film produced in the early 2000s, the project was composed using archive products produced at that time. The vehicle was selected as a classic car from Maserati , and careful consideration was given to selecting shoes that would match the silhouette of the car. After discovering the KUGELBLITZ produced by PUMA in 2004, it was possible to harmoniously combine the silhouettes of the shoes and the vehicle. The colors were unified with shades of indigo to convey a cool image.

Through this project, we aimed to bridge the gap between the past and present, exploring various aspects of societa l change and delving into the complexities faced by modern society. We hope that this project will help in understanding the diverse issues and intricacies confronted by contemporary society as we bring it to a close.
