Kanagawa Prefecture Video

This is an excerpt from a TV show I worked on. We shot it at Vina Walk shopping mall in Ebina, Japan near Tokyo in Kanagawa prefecture. Zick apparently doesn't like hot octopus balls. Who knew?

A Google Earth fly-by tour of the US Army's Sagamihara Dependent Housing Area, located in Sagamihara-shi, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, about 3km from USARJ HQ Camp Zama and 20km southwest of Tokyo. The housing on SHA is for both military families and families of American civilians who work for the Department of Defense. There are both attached and detached houses on SHA, ranging from two to four bedrooms and one to three bathrooms. Enlisted personnel occupy modern quarters that were built from the late 1990s forward. Officers are required to occupy post-occupation dwellings that were constructed between 1951 and 1955. Some of these quarters haven't been renovated since they were constructed. Other structures that have remained intact since the '50s include the base movie theater, snack bar (which originally included the PX in one wing), officer's club (now the community dining hall), beauty shop and specialty stores (formerly PX concessions), the steam plant, and community pool. Incidentally, the accompanying music is Tim Weisberg and David Benoit performing "Kei's Song" (owned by Warner/Chappell Music).
