Yakult

Yakult Lady

This film is a short film for the web by Yakult Europe, which has its headquarters in the Netherlands. Based on the history of the birth of Yakult, a health drink that originated in Japan, its unique sales channel method, and the success of Yakult Lady, the production company MikeTeeVee Production Company in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, developed the story and planned to shoot in Japan.

Our company is in charge of producing the Japan side of this work. Since it is an overseas advertising video work, we have contributed to the high level of quality of this work that can be used internationally by making full use of our multinational staff, such as location coordination, casting, shooting schedules, and full bilingual crew staffing on the Japan side, while all advertising video works require a high level of skill in all areas. In preparation and filming, there is a lot of communication between the client and the Dutch director that transcends countries. Japan's video industry has become Galapagos in a sense, and in many cases, smooth communication and coordination between the production team on the Japan side and the foreign crew are difficult, but many of our staff are native English speakers. By being able to communicate with each other, the Dutch crew, who came to Japan for the first time to shoot, was able to concentrate on filming with peace of mind. The staff on the set are a multinational group from more than 4 countries, and of course the official language of the company is English, and they always work to international standards. In this project, our international sense was fully utilized.
