    These little theatres and story cards should be used in teaching around the world. What a great but simple invention.

    I think kamishabai is not only good for children.
    It is a good way too to stimulate our elders imagination reminding tales and stories.

    This is so cool to me because it’s like a more interactive storybook. I’d love to make one of these.
    But like in a modern sense? Aka a storybook told in this way but not so much a folktale just a story I think that would be super cool!
    I even think it would be cool if the stage was decorated to enhance the story like a frame. Idk. Something that just came into my head when I found out about this art form.

      I have another video on kamishibai in the classroom which talks about ways to incorporate it in teaching. With more and more youth addicted to rapid fire media consumption, I think art forms like kamishibai are needed to try and slow things down for their over stimulated brains.

    Hi, Dym Sensei! I will be using this video in my Japanese class tomorrow. Thanks! I have never thought that you will be mentioned in my class 25 tears ago. Hope you are all well!

    So in other words, Kamishibai is more comparable to a projection slideshow than a picture book. I can dig that.

      Not sure where to buy in Europe. But Kamishibai for Kids will probably ship you some. They have a good collection of Kamishibai in Japanese and English.

      Their word for them is just their version of hanzi, and that is what the word itself means (Chinese characters).

    usually how many paper to make kamishibai except for cover or title ?
    if i make only 6 it is ok ?

      Hi, I'm Japanese. I'm answering your question since the video owner doesn't seem to be going to do.
      It really depends on the age of kids you're going to read to.
      For older children, it can be longer than 6 scenes as their concentration is better.
      Having said that, Kamishiba has typically from 8 to 12 papers (scenes), some stories has even longer than that. 16 pages for example.
      You can get Kamishibai starter kit from Amazon Japan, which has 7 papers with the thick paper frame.

      Well, thank you for recognizing this , I really appreciate it, but I already make it using drawing book, though I get rank 3 in my college for this

    • @Dymsensei
      @Dymsensei  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There are no hard and fast rules to the number of cards. It is up to the maker. Most commercial kamishibai are 8-20, though some are as many as 24. The old time street ones were usually 8-10, in part because they were cranked out every day and making 8-10 painting in one day was a huge job for the artist.

    This feels like a needlessly over-complicated version of reading a picture book to kids.

    • @Dymsensei
      @Dymsensei  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Actually, it is just the opposite. It is a much more effective way to convey a story to children.

      @@Nscorpion5248 i mean anime and a lot of manga actually have there roots in kamishibai is, to the point when tv came over to Japan in 1953 many called it "electronic kamishibai", in fact one of tezuka's first works is about a character that started in kamishibai.

      It is no different from children's theater. Or even a skilled storyteller. People (kids and adults) appreciate and remember stories better if they got some visual anchor to help them get along with the plot...
