"Boat Race Kabuki" is a 3DCG video that combines boat racing and Kabuki, and is based on the story of the Kabuki play "Gojo Bridge". By utilizing volumetric video technology, the race and battle scenes between Ushiwakamaru (Kamio Fuju) and Musashibo Benkei (Nakamura Shido) are so powerful that you feel as if they are unfolding right in front of your eyes.
