Yuichi Kodama (児玉裕一, Kodama Yuichi, born August 20, 1975),[1] is a Japanese video director. He has mainly directed music videos and ads. He often produces music videos and ads that are strongly connected or "tied-up" to each other, such as Perfume's "Secret Secret" and Morinaga Milk's "Eskimo Pino", or Amuro Namie's songs and Vidal sassoon's ads.[clarification needed]

Personal life

[edit]

In September 2013, gossip magazine Josei Jishin published an article that linked Kodama romantically with singer Ringo Sheena and stating that Sheena has secretly given birth to his first and Sheena's second child.[3] Sheena addressed these rumours publicly during her Tōtaikai concerts in November 2013, announcing that she gave birth in spring of 2013 to a daughter. As this was close to the release of her single "Irohanihoheto/Kodoku no Akatsuki," she did not feel it was appropriate to link the birth of their daughter with her single promotions, so she decided not to announce it at the time.[4] The footage of her announcement was released on her Tōtaikai DVD in March 2014.
