More Credits

I am posting an in depth credits on this blog because the video does not include all the awesome people who were kind enough to participate.

Fabricated Characters

Suzukikitsune(Kitsune.Suzuki), Shinobu, Remi & The Author
These characters are all acted by me (Remi February).

Just to clear things up if anyone is confused, Shinobu is a Kitsune spirit who utilized Remi's body to make her videos.
More clarification would come later in the book that's being written.

Sakura
Acted by Mion Rhodes.

Sakura is Kitsune’s friend who lives in Japan. I tried to create a video where it’s believable that she may live in Japan. So she talks about places in Japan such as well-known stores or cities. She also has a crush on Kitsune’s host brother Timothy where she pays Kitsune money to send her his pictures.
I believe her character helped Kitsune to become more believable to being someone from Japan.
I chose her name to be Sakura because in Japanese sakuras are assistants of magicians who act to be an audience tricking other viewers around them.

Josh

Josh was a collaborative character created by Graham Meyers and myself. We took turns on making the character more believable.

Josh is Kitsune’s enemy at school. He started to have hatred towards her because he thought she was avoiding him. So he steals her images off her myspace to create a mild internet war. He creates "hate art" and posts it on his blog. Kitsune finds out about these and decides to do a revenge where she toilet papers his house and car. Unfortunately, the revenge didn’t succeed for Kitsune because he now thinks that she has a crush on him.
Josh also means, “Joke” in English, which went well with my project.

Graham Meyers is also a skilled photographer!


Fabricated/Real Friends

Roy

Acted by Roy Pulido.

In my opinion, this actor/musician helped me a great deal. He acted as himself, the only thing fabricated about him was that he claimed to be Kitsune’s virtual friend and invited her to go see existing shows in which he was performing in.

Fabricated friends who do not have an online account

Timothy
Acted by Jon Bricke.

A character that appears in Kitsune’s Disneyland video. He is Kitsune’s host brother.

Mariella
Acted by Andie Torres and partially Mion Rhodes.

A character that appears in Kitsune’s Revenge video. She wears a "Victoria Secret" bag over her head because she is shy and she is also a character that went to Disneyland with Kitsune and Timothy, which she did the camera work.
In reality, the girl who helped shoot the Disneyland footage was Mion Rhodes.

Musicians & Bands

Musicians and bands kindly provided me and gave me permission to use their music in my videos.
Here I will explain the music utilized in each video.


Video:“Miss You”
Kitsune sends a video letter to her long distance boyfriend, Kenji.
Music: East of the Salton
Fabricated musician: Chiqui
Real musician: Jorges
Jorges told me he wanted to be credited as Chiqui in Kitsune’s fabricated reality.
The reason why there's so much black at the end is because Kitsune expresses her feelings about being just a memory and being forgotten by Kenji. (The black at the end represents her existence).

Video: “Earobi”
Kitsune gains weight by consuming American food so she decides to do some aerobics.
Music:Aishitemasu
Fabricated musician: Blue Dead Whale
Real musician: Pink Dead Whale
I changed their band name to Blue Dead Whale for my project, which they approved.

Video: “Soy Cookie”
Kitsune makes Soy cookies for her diet. Translations for the videos are a little off because she's "Japanese."
Music: Cooking!

This music was made just for this video.
Zee Starseeker is a character and musician who is Kitsune's friend from school. He's an exchange student, but comes from a different planet.

I decided not to fabricate this musician's name because I wanted to incorporate a musician where people can actually find, which helped me blend the line between fiction and non-fiction.
