The Naked Director - Show me your Bodies

The Naked Director is a series based on the novel “Zenra Kantoku Muranishi Toru Den (全裸 監督 村 西 と お る 伝” which tells the story of Toru Muranishi who goes from being a simple seller of English-Japanese dictionaries, to becoming the successful adult film director.

In the second season of the series, chapter 5 called “the bursting of the bubble” tries to raise funds to cover the expenses he needs to sustain his company, hence he decides to make a show with the actresses of his films, taking them where a expert dancer who will teach them the art of seducing through dance, and it is at the time of rehearsals that the soundtrack begins with a rock-style riff in the key of Dm, to which is then added a bass firmly marking the pulse:

| Dm | % | % | % | x2

The scene shows us how hard rehearsals are and the effort the actresses must leave during rehearsals to achieve a successful show and it is at that moment of intensity that they give us a guitar solo that merges with all the energy of the moment.

| Bb5 | A5 | Bb5 | A5 | Bb5 | A5 |

Then the music lowers the intensity so that the images make us see the fruit of hard work, and how the group captures the essence of that particular dance:

| D5 | % | % | % |

Finally, they show us Muranishi and his group trying to promote the show with the flyer and the shout to the public, the soundtrack takes up the initial riff but more loaded with rhythm and closes the scene prior to the presentation with a lot of epicity. Great series!

Successes
