I just learned that Studio Ghibli made the animation for a music video in 1995 "On Your Mark"






This isn't the music video, it's a description/review of it... so you understand a little of what the video is about

   
According to the book "Studio Ghibli, the Complete Works" the storyline for the video is that in the future, people have been forced underground by radioactive contamination and disease. Armed police officers storm a skyscraper with a flashing neon sign that which reads "Saint Nova's Church". When the pink aircraft the police use crashed through the building, notice the religious fanatics are armed with rifles, as if anticipating a battle. Two of the officers rescue a winged girl from deep within the building, but the authorities take custody of her as an experimental subject. Unable to put her out of their minds the two officers put together a plan to rescue the winged girl and return her to the sky. In the film, Miyazaki repeats key scenes but leads each one to different endings, adroitly expressing the many possibilities the future holds
