Behind the scenes with Visvim’s Hiroki Nakamura: A Type 7 Film
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 дек 2021
- Take a rare glimpse into the life and work of Hiroki Nakamura, founder and creative director of Visvim, the visionary Japanese clothing brand. Over the last twenty years Hiroki has built a lifestyle that is indistinguishable from his work. Join us as we explore a day-in-the-life view as Hiroki works on his newest collection, repairs and drives his 356 Pre-A and 1940 Knucklehead, and spends time with his wife and longtime collaborator, Kelsi. The famously reclusive designer has never before allowed cameras to capture this world, but director Ben Bertucci was given access to bring us this rare and behind-the-scenes view.
For Hiroki, the cars and bikes are part of the overall creative process, finding inspiration from these totally original and hand-built machines. Keeping them as true to the original as possible, while driving them daily, is key. Feeling desensitized by the modern world, Hiroki surrounds himself with objects from the past that he must constantly maintain and meticulously restore. The process of tinkering with the engines-replacing filters and hoses, or adjusting the carburetors-is a practice that keeps him in tune with the machine. In many ways, it is his life and inspiration.

This man is living
Want to get a beer and this masterpiece to last for about an hour
Some people are just born cool.....beautiful film....people, car, bike......scenery.
Watched it twice....it has also saved me money too.....I think my classic just needs to stay as is to hold on to the essence of 1968......... this film has inspired me to make my own.....but with an English rural ambience......Gloucestershire or Bedfordshire......visual therapy, thanks.
I could have watched an hour's worth of this.
I was thinking the same thing. I don’t think he always get’s the credit he deserves. Someone should make a full documentary about him just like people did for Issey Miyake, Helmut Lang, Rick Owens etc.
Yeah me too
Watch it by all means, use it as inspiration to find your own identity, do it, live it for yourself, make it happen.
Man those short films are precious
Ben Bertucci, I'm just blown away by this film. I wouldn't have added or subtracted a single second of the film. Beautifully shot, poignantly told, a real work of art . . . just like those bikes and cars, and Nakamura-san himself. Bravo!
3:40 was not long enough for this beautiful film. I could watch an hour of this
Love watching these videos, very relaxing and they make you think about your own life and stuff you own....
I loved this video. Big fan of Visvim and Hiroki’s lifestyle is truly inspirational 💯
Love how tranquil the film is
This was so well shot
Watched it twice because it was that good 👍🏾! Such a beautiful car 🚙!
Such a passion. this is what life is all about, not dreaming ,but make you dream come true . Thanks for posting ,
Ted and Hiroki are living legends, my idols.
Just wish you guys would go more in-depth with them
Another amazing video, only wish it was longer. Keep up the amazing work, you truly are appreciated 🙏🏽🇬🇧👍🏽
Basically a Petrolicious video like the good old days...and that's just good!
Such a beautiful short film in every way! Love your work ❤
Beautiful film. What a cool guy. Love it.
A true philosopher and a gentleman
Beautifully filmed. 👍🏻🏴❤️
God what a beautiful car.
Why haven't you told more of hiroki's story? He is the founder of a great well thought out fashion brand from where you could have build easily a bridge to classic cars and motorcycles! A little more content would be nice for such a beautiful and visually awesome film ;)
dude, it is a behind the scene....
@@macadam678 Also for a bts video I could just repeat my words! Don't get me wrong! No hate at all! Just an opinion.
Hey I know that name from somewhere….
@@johnmayer752 Hey John, thanks for the constructive feedback. We agree, Hiroki could dictate a full length feature documentary about his life and work. We would love to produce it as well... From this project I can tell you that he has a truly less is more approach to his messaging. The length and depth of our interview was dictated by a dialogue with him and his partner. If we ever get the chance to work with him again we will do our best to go deeper!
@@macadam678 dude u talking to the real john mayer!!
beautifully shot
Beautiful
this is so inspiring
Nicely done, a beautiful and well crafted short film.
Cette chaine est une pépite!tout y est beau,tout y est élégant,tout y est esthète ….bravo c est un plaisir 🤙🏾
GORGEOUS imagery
So GOOD! Nature! 🏯🗾
Great man. I like the modest Japanese attitude. Enjoy your life. Nakamura San.
that house! but modest was not the word that came to mind :)
so well shot
Such a beautiful film 👌🏿
Cool guy !
I like your style in the videos👏
Beautiful film
I have been to Japan twice. Last was in 2020. I saw very few foreign cars. The exceptions were Mercedes and Porsche.
nice vidéo , thanks
Super cool.
Very nice. 👍
Proper cool dude !!!
Awesome
These are the perfect length for me.
2:54 this scene feels surreal watching that old porsche put put along
Beautiful video !! The new king of cool! Where was that video filmed? Especially when he rides the knuckle with no helmet on?
Mint 👍
Please wear a helmet Hiroki. You need to protect that beautiful head.
FEAR BASED PERCEPTION
Lovely video. He is definitely a cool cat. Is this the new Petrolocious?
That was Deep...✨🧘🏾♂️👁️📿🕉️
Man. I live in Los Angeles but I’ll love to have that view
You are one cool dude👍👊🏼 I need more friends like you😉
Whow!
Incredible, please let me know where this was filmed.
i'd have seen that stunning 356 with some gold LM BBS rims how it looks like...
This is a fantastic film with great cars and an interesting dude, although I have to say I might have preferred him in Yojimbo.
The way of life.
❤️
A -1....On Point. Its in his blood...That's all I can say..
What a beautiful film. Especially living by the Big Sur That’s a dream location for me.
I thought that was Big Sur or Northern Cal. At first I thought he was in Japan.
@@edwardduarte7393 yeah at first I thought was Japan then I saw the bixby bridge and the home on the coast. I would like to own a home in that area someday. The place is just beautiful and the roads are great for driving.
Im a coast local..Ive mixed feelings regards to the trampling by tourist in the area shown..Our community is graciously patient yet the destructive nature of tourism has been terribly destructive to the areas natural vibe. An example is the use of the coastal home scene..with the artist & chic leaving car to walk the path..if that was by owners permission then Im ok..yet if they trespassed to drone that shot..Im pissed
@@canyonhaverfield2201 it’s a nicely done film. I m pretty sure it’s the characters in the films home and property. Or must have had permission from actual owners.
It’s very understandable about tourism. If I own a nice property like this I wouldn’t want tourism to ruin it as well. Not all are bad but usually the bad ones ruins it for everyone.
I wanted more
.....and I believe the same for Ben
That was cinematic as fuck.
Curious to know is the young lad at 1:05 Hiroki’s son? He looks just like him
It's a great interview. Can I use part of the clip for my video? I'll make sure to indicate the source. We are a Korean channel that introduces good brands.
what bike is that?
Thank you for creating Bitcoin Hiroki
This should have been longer than 3min and 41 seconds!
ASMR
Does he have IG?
Perfectly worn in 356.
What is it about 356 Porsches that makes people obsess over them? Probably that they have a soul!
Visvim's clothes are cool, but dam crazy expensive, $400. USD for a T-shirt? a bit much
감싱은 좋은데 너무 비싸
I feel I’m cut from the same cloth but definitely not as well expressed. Should have started out with a little more insight
My name is Sitoshi Nakamoto
i dont have bad skin, i got some... patina...
Really cool guy but come on man don’t hold a kickstarter on a bike down like that
Film, FILM in under 5 minutes. Nice.
A philosophy not his whole story.
What is this? A fricken ad?
What a waste of time.
