Abstract
Tourism has the effect of healing the minds of tourists in a different environment. Tourists will also be delighted by
the rare lands and excited by the magnificent architecture and nature. On the other hand, tourism will be a big business
for local people, which can be expected to revitalize the area and increase the number of residents. In recent years,
rural areas have been declining due to the concentration of work in cities and the declining birthrate and aging
population. Along with this, there are many towns and villages that are merged or abandoned. Against this
background, the number of local governments that are trying to regain the vibrancy of the past by focusing on the
tourism industry is increasing year by year. As part of this, we took Takachiho Town as an example to see if we could
contribute to more effective tourism PR by incorporating Information and Communication Technology (ICT) such
as Computer Graphics (CG) into introductory videos such as Promotion Video (PV) and commercials.
