In June 2015 Panasonic launched the "NEYMAR JR. CRAZY SKILLS" project with the intention of using Panasonic technology to support children the world over who "want to be as good at football as Neymar Jr." Featured in the project were the "crazy skills" of Neymar Jr., who has highly creative moves. Digital archives of Neymar Jr.'s crazy skills from actual matches were replicated in full-CG with the use of the latest technology known as WebGL, and released on the project website (https://crazyskills.panasonic.com) as "ARCHIVES OF MOTION DATA." The website also features a "360° OBSERVATION CAM" that enables enjoyment of 360° views of real-action footage in slow-motion and ground-level zoom on a smartphone or PC.
Individuals the world over tried their hand at emulating these "crazy skills" and Neymar Jr. viewed the video clips as the official judge in order to bestow the "NEYMAR JR.'s CRAZY SKILLS AWARD." The website "NEYMAR JR. CRAZY SKILLS" has thus far been viewed by football fans in 213 countries. As of the end of December 2016, this "NEYMAR JR. CRAZY SKILLS" project will finally be concluded. In the special movie that highlights the finest moments of the project, Neymar Jr. and "NEYMAR JR.'s CRAZY SKILLS AWARD" entrants from around the world are featured in footage of those "crazy skills."

to see so many people on so many different continents learning from my
dribbling moves and skills. It makes me happy to know that this has
