MESSAGE

Delivering your message clearly and warmly.

What I value in video production is not making things look flashy. It's about observing the site, listening to people, and discovering the unique technology, judgment, and work ethic that each company possesses.

The experience accumulated over many years holds value that should be passed on to the next generation. We don't just create videos; we organize a company's experience and transform it into a format that can be utilized both internally and externally.

To convey the message as much as possible through the video itself, without over-relying on captions or explanations. We respect the viewer's time and create works that lead to understanding and action. That is my production philosophy.

When I was involved in TV program production, I met a new employee who said they decided to pursue a career in video after watching my work. That experience made me realize how much videos can influence people's career paths and ways of thinking. Since we are taking up the viewers' valuable time, I approach each work with utmost care. I continue to value that approach in my current work.

CAREER

My Journey with Video

My roots in video production began with an 8mm film I made with friends for our high school cultural festival. The trial-and-error experience from planning to completion became the starting point for studying film in America and pursuing video as a career.

Studying Film

Majored in Film at Southern Illinois University

I majored in film at Southern Illinois University in the United States, where I learned the fundamentals of 16mm film production from the ground up. Beyond creating works, I was exposed to film history, documentaries, and experimental films, building a foundation for thinking about and constructing video.

TV program production

Into the World of News, Information, and Documentaries

After graduation, I worked as a director for over 10 years at a company affiliated with a commercial TV station in Nagoya. Through producing programs in news, information, economics, and documentaries, I honed my skills in organizing facts and conveying them to viewers within limited timeframes.
