Frequently Asked Questions
Can you handle everything from concept to final delivery?
Yes. We offer complete production — concept development, scripting, casting, storyboarding, shooting, editing, and final delivery. We can equally work from your own brief or creative direction if you already have it in place. Either way, we manage the entire process and communicate throughout in both English and Japanese, keeping everything clear and aligned at every stage.
Does your team speak English?
Yes. Alphabet Productions was founded by international filmmakers from Australia and the UK, and English is our primary working language. Our producers, directors, and all key crew communicate in English — and our fully bilingual team manages all Japanese communication simultaneously. Whether you're an international agency or a Japanese company seeking international production expertise, we work fluently in both languages.
Can you produce outside of Tokyo?
Yes. We produce across all of Japan — from Hokkaido to Okinawa — including productions in Kyoto, Osaka, Nagano, and rural and regional locations across the country. We have established crew networks and local contacts nationwide, and our bilingual producers manage all regional logistics, permits, and location access fluently in both English and Japanese, wherever the production takes us.
How does pricing work? Can you give us a rate card?
We're happy to share indicative costs — usually through an example estimate based on your project type. We produce everything from small documentary crews to large-scale TV commercials, so there's a wide range. Every production has many line items, and a simple rate card rarely reflects reality. Tell us what you have in mind and we'll give you a clear, honest picture.
What makes Alphabet Productions different from other production companies in Tokyo?
Alphabet is led by filmmakers who have built careers across the UK, United States, and Australia before coming to Japan — and that experience shapes how we work. We approach production in Japan with a can-do mindset, finding solutions where other Productions find obstacles and pushing through to deliver for our clients. We understand Japanese culture, protocol, and nuance deeply but we always try to find a way to make things happen.
What types of film and video projects do you produce?
TV commercials, brand films, documentaries, corporate video, social media content, and web films — for advertising agencies, global brands, streaming platforms, and direct clients. Our work includes productions for Manchester City FC, BVLGARI, the UFC, BMW Japan, New Balance, and Asana, among others. We produce at the level of serious international production, in both English and Japanese, across Japan and Asia.
We're an overseas production company bringing our own director. Can you be our local partner in Japan?
Yes, and it's a core part of what we do. We regularly serve as local line producers for international companies bringing their own director or DOP. We handle crew, equipment, locations, permits, transport, accommodation, visas, and all Japanese-language logistics, communicated to you entirely in English. You retain full creative control; we run everything on the ground.
Can we direct remotely if we can't travel to Japan?
Yes. We regularly run productions for international clients who can't travel to Japan. We provide live video feeds of the shoot via Zoom, Google Meet, or Teams, with real-time English translation during Japanese-language interviews and on-set direction. You can give notes, adjust the creative, and follow every moment of the production from anywhere in the world.
Do you handle post-production in both English and Japanese?
Yes. The language-specific elements — interview editing, subtitling, on-screen graphics, titles, and final versioning — we handle in both English and Japanese. We produce and deliver bilingual versions of any project, formatted for broadcast, digital, and social platforms, for both international and Japanese domestic audiences. All review, approvals, and communication throughout post-production can take place in English or Japanese.
Do you produce content for Japanese domestic clients as well as international ones?
Yes. While many of our clients are international brands and agencies producing content in Japan, we also work regularly with Japanese companies seeking international production standards and English-language content capability. We're equally comfortable in both directions, and communicate fluently in English and Japanese throughout every stage of production — from initial brief through to final delivery.
