Pajama Drive - The Legendary Setlist!
Pajama Drive (パジャマドライブ, Pajamadoraibu) is a theater show lineup by JKT48. Typically, it's performed by Trainees (2012 - 2016) up to Class A Academy (2019 - 2021). But in the New Era, the 10th generation took over with a 7-member formation, even though they were already official JKT48 members. However, this lineup had to wrap up after less than a year with the 10th generation. It ended with a final show, known as Senshuraku.
Behind The Graphic
It's undeniable that the songs from the Pajama Drive setlist are absolute bangers, universally enjoyable even for casual listeners. Inspired by love for this setlist,
I thought of giving it a visual refresh.
Surprisingly, despite almost a decade since the first generation's Senshuraku, there hasn't been a physical release of the Pajama Drive setlist album. Similarly, the graphic and visual elements used in the theater have grown somewhat outdated, failing to capture the essence of the "New Era."
So, here's a concept I've come up with to breathe new life into the visuals, aiming to represent both the spirit of the "New Era" and the youthful energy of the 10th generation. This concept also serves as a tribute to the Senshuraku of the 10th generation, which concluded in early February 2024.
What a great drive! thank you JKT48 10th Generation #atTentionFinalTrip
I'm brainstorming a fresh look by shaking up the typical JKT48 graphics, opting for vibrant colors and making member photos stand out.
Instead of the usual cute and friendly vibe, I'm going for a minimalist design. That means sleek, modern typefaces and clean design elements to signify a transition to a more mature image, much like how Senshuraku marks the end of the trainee phase.
Here's a mockup concept for what a physical album release of Pajama Drive could look like
In addition to physical albums and all their accessories, visual arrangements are also needed for implementation in the theater. After all, Pajama Drive originated as a theater setlist.
Here's a glimpse of how the theater will set up for Pajama Drive performances, from the lobby to the visual implementation for the VJ, enhancing the artistic aspect of the idol performance on stage.
