Kou Yoshinari

is a Japanese animator affiliated with Studio Silver. He is the older brother of director, storyboard artist and animator Yō Yoshinari.
He is known for having reached great expertise in many techniques from realistic animation to digital compositing. This gives him the ability to have full control over his works, often being responsible for the key frames, in-betweens, finishing, photography and backgrounds of the scenes he is in charge of.
His skilled use of coloring and compositing, together with the realistic depiction of movement make his works to be often mistaken for computer generated animation.
