Team up with an Award-Winning Video Production Company in Tokyo

If your organization is interested in filming a corporate video in Japan, it’s impossible to ignore the lure of Tokyo. The capital city’s immense size, constant bustle of activity and impressive level of infrastructure mean that any type of video shoot you can imagine can be accomplished there.

Tokyo covers an area of 1,400 square miles and the prefecture is home to a total of nearly 14 million people, over one-tenth of the total population of Japan. The city’s architecture is an eclectic mix of ancient sights such as the Imperial Palace and constantly refreshed modern streetscapes, lined with cutting-edge electronic ads. If you look up, you’ll see the Tokyo Tower and Tokyo Skytree looming above the skyline, making them perfect features for B-roll footage.

Every area has a unique identity, and therefore has its own role to play in your video production. In Shinjuku, you’ll encounter crowds of businesspeople and students during the day, and then witness nightlife take hold as the sun goes down. Shibuya and Harajuku are internationally known fashion and arts epicenters.

Akihabara is a colorful place for shopping and encounters with anime, manga and gaming culture. Roppongi promises museums, galleries and thriving nightclubs, while Ryogoku is the home of sumo wrestling. Any and all of these areas are best explored with an expert camera crew on your side.

Why team with a video production company in Tokyo?

It’s easy to be overwhelmed on a first, second or even third visit to Tokyo. With a metropolitan area so huge and varied, how can your company stay on track to complete your video production? This is where Crews Control experts have a role to play, using their local knowledge and expertise to guide you to the perfect locations for all your needs.

When dealing with Japanese authorities and companies such as gear rental agencies, familiarity counts. In some cases, securing a permit and acquiring gear for your shoot are difficult unless you’re working with producers and companies with established links in the city and the country as a whole. Crews Control will pair your company with experts who know their area, meaning they’ll be able to open doors, make introductions, interpret and otherwise keep the shoot on schedule.

The other reason to team up with Crews Control experts is to access their technical knowledge. Today’s video audiences have high expectations, and it can be challenging to live up to their demands with your internal personnel. Crews Control gives you access to professional agency filmmaking capabilities, without adding full-time salaries or purchasing gear.
