A drone show, planned, produced, and operated by students from the Keiji Takeda Lab, was scheduled to be held during the 36th Tanabata Festival at Keio University Shonan Fujisawa Campus (SFC) on July 5–6, 2025, but was canceled due to rain.

While it is unfortunate that this project, which a team composed entirely of students had been preparing for about a year, could not be presented, we are pleased to share a digest video of footage shot during the rehearsal.

In keeping with this year's Tanabata Festival theme, "Shiori" (bookmark), the drone show was named "Sky Bookmark."

Enjoy this fantastical show painted in the night sky by 300 drones.
