Shochiku Festival: All-Star Lineup – Studio Express / The Birth of an Actress

松竹まつりスタア総動員 スタジオ超特急 女優誕生(二部作)

Overview

Produced by Shochiku’s all-star cast as a commemorative film to mark the completion of the “Shochiku Kaikan” in Tsukiji, Tokyo, this movie introduces both the Shochiku Ofuna and Kyoto studios. Part One focuses on the studio’s behind-the-scenes staff: set designers, prop masters, and lighting technicians. Part Two presents a digest-style overview of the process surrounding a young woman who auditions for the “New Faces” program, from the auditions to her debut as an actress.
