It started with a simple problem—
Japan makes incredible things, but the world rarely meets the makers.

It all began in a small studio nestled in the heart of New York

Japan’s Prime Productions is the storytelling arm of JapansPrime. We film the small businesses, craftspeople, and local places that make Japan special—then we help those stories travel beyond Japan’s borders.


Our style is minimal, cinematic, and human. No loud gimmicks. No fake “influencer energy.” Just clean visuals, strong structure, and respect for the people we film.


Creativity isn’t “ideas.” It’s execution—clean, honest, and impossible to ignore.
