Starting Point:

We’ll begin at the new Sakura Stage, uncovering a few lesser-known spots along the way.

Next Stop:

Our journey continues near the Cerulean Tower Hotel, where you’ll learn to create abstract rain-inspired images—even without rain. From there, we’ll explore Shibuya’s back alleys, capturing their character and atmosphere, before heading to the famous Shibuya Crossing. Here, we’ll focus on panning shots of passing people and vehicles.

Final Destination:

We’ll then shift our attention to capturing the bokeh reflections from the glowing taxi signs. The workshop wraps up at Shibuya Stream, where we’ll practice shooting the illuminated steps for a final creative touch.
