Patrick Frater Asia Bureau ChiefNetflix is launching its first location based entertainment experience in Japan, a pavilion at KidZania in Fukuoka.
It will open to the public on Sunday (July 31, 2022). KidZania is an interactive city that combines inspiration, fun and learning through realistic career experiences.
The Netflix pavilion will allow kids to experience being a stop-motion animator and help characters come to life, by immersing them in the world of the upcoming series “Rilakkuma’s Theme Park Adventure.” Kids aged three to fifteen will be able to work together in teams of six to create an original story, by placing the characters Rilakkuma and Korilakkuma in Nakasugi Land, and producing a short video using the same stop-motion technique seen in the Rilakkuma series.
Their finished video will be shown on a big screen in the theater room. The company explains that stop-motion is a film-making technique where objects are shifted slightly in each individually photographed frame.
