My girlfriend and I shot this video in Tokyo in November 2005, on the last day of a long vacation in Japan.

We were starving and it was late, and we'd just stepped off the train from Hiroshima. We saw a line of people snaking around the corner from this restaurant and figured it was a quality place. After about 45 minutes outside in the cold, we were finally seated, ordered a couple of rounds and ate some of the best sushi we'd ever had in Japan.

I was looking through the pictures on my camera and said that it'd be fun to put the camera on the conveyor. My girlfriend thought it was a great idea and asked the sushi chef if we could and he got really excited and told everybody to smile and wave, so I set it up there and let it go. The result was fantastic and completely unexpected. Unfortunately the camera's memory stick filled up just before it circled back to us, but we got almost everything.

The style of restaurant is a "kaitenzushi", which literally means revolving sushi, and the name of the place is Maguro-bito, which can be found in the Asakasa neighborhood of Tokyo, just around the corner from the Nakamise shopping arcade, a very popular and busy Japanese bazaar.

Enjoy!
