KEITA MACHIDA 15th Anniversary Photobook「sign」

An anniversary photobook commemorating actor KEITA MACHIDA's 15th anniversary in the industry has been announced！
This is my first photobook in approximately 6 years.

3 photographers, each active in 3 different regions, primarily Tokyo, Seoul, and Taipei, took the photographs. Furthermore, the inclusion of his first-ever original essays creates a book that offers a multifaceted portrayal of KEITA MACHIDA's「present」.
This is a truly special edition photobook, a 3-volume set totaling 240 pages, perfectly suited for an anniversary celebration, and housed in a custom case for permanent preservation.

【KEITA MACHIDA's comment】
To mark 15 years since I started performing on stage as an actor, I'm releasing an anniversary photobook‼
This is my first photobook in about 6 years.
I had thought I wouldn't release any more photo books, but when I received so many requests, and saw how many people were cherishing their previous ones like old photo albums… my heart ached, and I decided I would do my best to release one in some form.
I'm glad we were able to make it happen.

Since I had the opportunity, I selfishly asked if I could have the photos taken in places that are meaningful to me or that I like, and surprisingly, I was able to have my photos taken in three different regions, mainly Tokyo, Seoul, and Taipei, by 3 photographers who have connections to each of those places！
I wondered if I deserved such a reward, and I was deeply moved by the enthusiasm of the staff who lent their support with sparkling eyes, determined to「create something absolutely amazing！」I am filled with a sense of immense happiness.

The fact that everyone has completely different perspectives, sensibilities, and connections is what makes this project so enjoyable！
I'm realizing how vast, enjoyable, and beautiful the world is.

Although it's still a relatively short period of time, I've continued acting for 15 years without stopping, and I've put into writing, albeit a little embarrassingly, some of the things I've felt and my honest feelings, so I've packed a lot of who I am right now into this book.
This book might be a bit lengthy in many ways. lol

We put our hearts and souls into making these, so please look forward to them.

From KEITA MACHIDA.
