Motionographer® Beat of a Romance / Cha Cha Cha

NORA (accompanied by the Japanese kana for her name ノラ) is the first Italian V-Idol, a virtual idol with a real voice and an authentic soul. Her entire visual universe comes from two years of CG work and animation, curated by Maga Animation Studio.

The project embodies the positivity, style and carefree lightness that mark the ’80s and ’90s. Her music video is conceived as a narrative work where NORA, an Italo-French character, singer and dancer with a passion for j-pop music, encounters alternative versions of herself in a dreamlike, post-digital dimension. The vaporwave aesthetic that envelopes her, moves on beat with her song and voice, a new true spirit not bound to the human world.

The virtual pop star had her debut on the 12th of September with her first music single Beat of a Romance/Cha Cha Cha, now streaming everywhere around the world on all major platforms.
