Why Work at Cocone (Motion Animation Romero Thibaut)
※This article is machine translated.
What does sensibility mean to you?
Sensibility is the movement or workings of the mind when we see or hear various things.
In today’s society, which is overflowing with things, I am always thinking about what people find attractive.
I believe that Japanese people have a sensitivity to sympathize with the time and effort and persistence of the creator, and find value in that. Therefore, I would like to continue to carefully create my works by listening to customers’ voices in every detail and feeling their hearts.
I would be happy if customers feel ” nice” or “great” and are impressed the moment they experience our service. I believe that when the creator’s thoughts and feelings are combined with the customer’s sensibilities, that is where the emotional value is born. I always try to work so that I do not lose that feeling of connection with the customer.
Why did you join Cocone?
I am French, but I came to Japan in 2007. Before joining Cocone, I was designing consumer games, but I wanted to work in the world of social services, where I could be closer to customers, where I could easily understand their reactions, and where the appreciation of my work would be reflected in an increase in the number of customers.
It was at this time that I learned of Cocone, where nearly half of the employees are designers. I was attracted to an environment where I could be stimulated by many designers and grow through friendly competition, and I also had a very favorable impression that the fact that there are many designers means that the company values design and designers that much. I also sympathized with the company’s efforts to differentiate itself from other companies by providing services with high sensitivity and value in a way that is not merely profit-driven, as people’s values regarding things are becoming increasingly diverse.
About Responsibilities
Currently, I am in charge of creating animations for the people, creatures, backgrounds and UI in the application.
I try to create works that come to life and seem to really move of their own volition.
Since there are many people in charge of animation in the company, there are many opportunities to casually ask each other’s opinions and tips and teach each other, and there are many chances to learn new things.
About the team you belong to
Since joining the company, I have been in charge of animation production for ” MY LITTLE DOLL” ” Cats Atelier ” “Pokecolo Twin”. Currently, I am working on the animation of Livly Island. I find it rewarding to work in cooperation with experienced members of the team, and I enjoy working with them because they are all very personable and intellectually curious.
What we value in our work
We believe that constant improvement is necessary to keep customers using our services for a long time without getting bored. For this reason, we produce animations that give a sense of new value while respecting the worldview with a firm understanding of the content and vision of the service.
It is also important to communicate frequently with team members and exchange opinions with them, for example, to determine how far to go in terms of novelty. In addition, it is very important to make numerous adjustments to the details of the animation you produce, as subtle differences in timing, speed, and angle can greatly change the expression of the animation.
Attraction of Cocone
One of the appeals of Cocone is that we continue to provide services that work on the hearts of our customers, create attachment, and increase in value over time. I don’t think there are many companies that continue to create such beloved and popular services as ” Pokecolo ” Pokecolo Twin,” and ” Cats Atelier”. And since I am allowed to participate in various projects as a designer, the members of the company are stimulated by each other, which leads to my personal growth. I am also thankful for the warm and friendly staff and facilities, such as the in-house deli, gym, and massages, that allow me to work in good health.
