■ Challenge | Balancing Awareness and the Risk of Backlash
The aim of this initiative is to raise awareness about bicycle manners among foreigners through social media, and we validated new public relations methods in a multicultural society.
When promoting traffic manners, there were challenges such as:
・Inability to film actual violations like parallel riding or ignoring stop signs.
・Inability to ask specific individuals to play the role of "manners violator."
・Potential for backlash if foreigners are the subject.
・The fact that Japanese people are often more impolite than foreigners.
Especially when disseminating information on social media, even slight differences in expression can lead to significant reactions, requiring careful planning.
■ Solution | Completely AI-Generated Video
Scene showing AI outputting video.
To solve these challenges, Misekata Co., Ltd. adopted an AI-powered video production method.
In this video,
・Scenes of traffic rule violations
・Recreation of dangerous driving
・Character expressions
are all generated by AI.
By not using any real individuals, we achieved the production of awareness content that secures freedom of expression while suppressing the risk of backlash.
■ Approach to Multicultural Coexistence through 8-Language Support
AI outputs video for each scene. AI is also used for translation into each language.
Japanese / English / Chinese / Taiwanese / Vietnamese / Indonesian / Cambodian / Myanmar
Translations and narration are all produced using AI, and provided as audio content optimized for each language.
This has made it possible to convey traffic manners clearly to residents of diverse nationalities.
