A note on copyright:
The nature of this video meant I had to draw heavily on imagery that does not belong to me. Obviously, most of the Ghibli-related images are copyrighted by Studio Ghibli, although to the best of my knowledge it was also media that had been released for non-commercial public use. (My videos aren't monetized, and I have never profited from them in any way, so I assume this counts as 'non-commercial'). I should mention though, that some of the imagery is also possibly fan art...if this is the case, and I have used your work without permission, let me know and I'll give you a proper shout-out. One such case is the 'Disney-ified' Ghibli theme park plan from the artist TAKUMI(tm). I didn't ask permission to use that, but dude, if you're reading this, thanks and cheers. Your other work on Instagram is extremely cool, and I advise people to check it out. (TAKUMITOXIN).

As for the music used in this video, it's the usual story: some tracks from the YouTube Creators' Media Library, and some original stuff, ie. by Doctor Ebot. (About 50-50 in this one. Ask me for info on a particular track.) The Totoro theme-inspired track was based on a recording I took years ago at an elementary school kids' concert. (Which I remixed a bit. Obviously.)
