★Photoshoot★
The members had changed into formal jacket style costumes when they came into the house set in a studio in Tokyo.
For the jumbo uchiwa shots, Tegoshi worked proactively, asking “Maybe this level of smiling?” as he carefully changed his expressions and atmosphere for each shot.
After Tegoshi’s turn, it was Koyama who came into the set next. Before the test shots, he suggested a pose, “Maybe it’s better if I put my thumb on my waist?” After actually getting some shots taken, he looked into the monitor to see what it turned out like. He goes over all the details in order to get the best results with the best quality.
Next was Masuda, he came into the studio shouting “I’m looking forward to this!” energetically as he got in front of the camera.
He tries tilting his head for his full body shot, tries touching his hand to a shoulder, doing different things for each shot.
After Kato’s test shots, he stretched his face muscles showing his teeth so that he’d be warmed up. He quickly adjust his face again and put on a cool expression for the photoshoot. Koyama and Masuda were watching the monitor and for some reason they started to passionately yell encouragement, “Fooooo!!” (lol)
When the cameraman-san looked into the monitor showing Kato and said “This one’s cool and good!” Masuda jokingly (!?) rejects the option cutely, “We can’t use this one then (lol).” Kato couldn’t help but laugh at Masuda’s tsundere response.
Meanwhile, Tegoshi had settled into a break; he grabbed Kato’s guitar that was there and says “Kato-kuuuun! Can I use your guitarrrr! Suuuure!” as if he were Kato (lol), and starts strumming and singing NEWS’ songs!
After passionately singing WORLD QUEST, Sakura Girl, and other songs, he started on Pokoponpekorya, and when he started on the chorus, Masuda, who had been in the make up room, walked in, beautifully singing along the harmony line.
Next were the shots for the pamphlet. The shots were in pairs, and Masuda and Koyama were the ones to start this off.
The two started off with awesome cool poses, but when they got requested “Let’s try out some hyper shots too!” they start giving lots of ideas for their shots, “Can I maybe lean against the wall?” (Koyama), “What about if we look relaxed?” (Masuda).
Next was Tegoshi and Kato's shots.
Kato positioned himself back to back with Tegoshi, and then requested to Koyama, who was nearby, "Koyama~! Come make me laugh~! Come over here (lol)."
Koyama said "Why would I~ (lol)!" but came over anyway, making Tegoshi and Kato, and even Masuda crack up; this was a moment where the camera caught NEWS showing very natural smiles.
NEWS finished with their formal shots in a fun atmosphere.
They next changed into casual costumes in natural colors, and they moved to a different studio in the same building.
The wallpaper was different and the furniture and props were antique, it was almost like an European apartment.
After taking their solo shots with the window in the back, the four sat at a table together and had their group shots taken. They were asked to just chat and show their normal atmosphere together; Tegoshi took a hold of the antique globe and cutely said "Where's Japan~?"
Everyone then started spinning the globe, actually looking for Japan... The group shots ended up being full of shots with a fun feel.
In between shots, we saw Koyama and Masuda charge up on their energy, eating snacks.
"This is really good!" says Masuda with a Massu smile, recommending the coconut flavored donuts to the members; Koyama had just gotten back from abroad and popped some rice balls as well as Masuda's recommended donuts in his mouth, saying "Everything in Japan is so good~."
After finishing the inside shots with good time, for their last shots they all went outside on the rooftop.
In the distance was Tokyo Sky Tree, nearby was a canal with boats specifically prepared for small parties, and below them was an amazing night view of central Tokyo; while the equipment was being adjusted, we saw the members taking pictures of the scenery and of themselves with their own cameras (lol).
In the group shot on the roof, NEWS squished together, their order was Koyama, Tegoshi, Kato, and then Masuda.To adjust their positions Koyama and Tegoshi were requested to switch positions, but Koyama and Kato&Masuda squished up against Tegoshi on purpose so that he couldn't move (!?).
Tegoshi made a "waaah!" face and cracked up cutely too (lol). They then quickly adjusted their positions and expressions, preparing fully for the final shots. NEWS gave their all for the photoshoot, at the same time enjoying it.
In addition to this photoshoot they had in a house set, NEWS also went to a riverside with grass. There're lots of pictures with various expression from cool to cute smiles!
About NEWS, about the album, about the live shows... don't miss this pamphlet where the members talked a ton!
★Goods introduction★
Here we introduce you to the goods to be sold a the venues, starting from the planning meetings the members attended!
First the jumbo uchiwas and clearfiles.
The jumbo uchiwas and clear files are filled with sharp looking expressions and smiles.
This time, the backsides appear to have the patters on the back of the NEWS album’s jacket; a purple square (Koyama), a green circle (Kato), a yellow triangle (Masuda), and a pink heart (Tegoshi).
Because the motifs are printed on it, they’re sure to be noticeable even from a distance!
When they were discussing the goods in their meeting, for some reason Tegoshi started a unique call out saying “Triangle Masuda! Square’s Koyama! Green peas Kato!:”
When you think of live shows, it’s going to be this one! And so the T-shirts a fresh looking white.
The colorful motifs & the tour title in silver on the chest accentuate the simple and cute design. The motif has studs that go with the colors too!
The members discussed thoroughly about where to put the logo and it’s size.
In the meeting, they lined up numerous ideas on the table and chose which was the best.
Looking at the first choice, Masuda suggests “What about making the logo one size bigger?” and Tegoshi responds, “Bigger, so like this?” picking up a different version logo and placing it on a blank T-shirt.
“If you think about it actually gets worn, maybe a little higher?” says Koyama, as they carefully adjust the logo position.
Kato also suggests “We should check out what it looks like from a distance too,” and so they taped the logos to the blank t-shirts and looked at them from various angles before picking one!
“I want the tag to be at the bottom~!” says Masuda, and this idea was incorporated into this item the members were rather particular about too.
One of the things that give live shows color are the original penlights.
The penlight has a white handle and is a clear cube, in which the square & heart and the triangle & circle motifs light up in two rows.
It’s very pop and it the motifs look like floating candy!
And then items that you can’t not have for summer live shows, sports towels and the NEWS tumbler!
The tumbler will help you keep hydrated, it’s base color is white. The lid has a handle, “It’s easy to hold and is quite nice!” praises Koyama about how well it fits into your hand!
The sports towel feature the live logo right in the center, nice and big.
It’s a useful size; you can put in on your shoulders or on your head to block the sun.
“This is the right size if you want to put it on your pillow too!” says Masuda; please do use it in various ways after the shows too!
Always with them even after the shows! Also in the line up, NEWS case, original mobile stickers, and NEWS hair clips. Items made from the members’ wish, “So that we can always be together, something you can use in everyday life.”
The NEWS case is a small white container. A cute design; the motif’s popped out of the lid. It’s small enough to fit in our palm, and seems like the perfect size to carry around small things in!
The original mobile stockers are a set of large, medium, and small soft stickers. Please have fun using them with your handheld mobile devices!
The NEWS hair clips are a set of four, member-colored, and have a soothing cooling look. “You can use these when you’re washing your face” (Tegoshi), “Might be good when you do your make up too?” (Kato); just as they say, we recommend using it in your everyday life.
Also a tote bag that’ll fit all the goods!
The linen’s a worn white and it has a thick rope type handle; it looks very summer-ish.
It’s a grown up and cute design; the live logo’s simply printed in monotone colors. In contrast though, the inside has a fun atmosphere with the colorful motif printed all over.
It’s big enough to be good for a 2-3 day trip, so it’ll definitely come to use in a lot of situations!
There’s also the pamphlet poster, and original photoset on top of this!
The NEWS LIVE TOUR 2013 goods are filled with the members’ thoughts.
