Takemoto's work is based on the concept of contributing to the diversity of the world by bringing pre-modern and non-Western aesthetic values into the Western world. Traditionally, Edward Steiken's fashion photography has been used as a link to contemporary art, but with the addition of the chiaroscuro from Citizen Kane, the film declares itself as a successor to the visual adventures of Orson Welles and Greg Toland.
