From First Contact to Final Delivery: Eiwa Media's Seamless International Production Process

"Will the process be smooth from overseas?" "Will there be a language barrier?" "How will we manage the time difference?" When commissioning a video project in Japan from overseas, these additional questions are being added to the usual video production worries. With years of experience managing international projects, we understand these concerns completely. That is why our production process is built on two core principles: smoothing process and frictionless communication. This page outlines our step-by-step workflow, showing you exactly how we collaborate with our clients across borders to create exceptional videos.

1. Step 1: Free Consultation & Proposal

   Every project begins with a deep understanding of your goals. Our bilingual producer will meet with you (virtually, of course) to conduct a detailed discovery session: What do you want to achieve? Who is your audience? What is your budget and timeline? Based on this, we deliver a comprehensive creative proposal draft and a transparent, itemized quote that addresses your business needs, not just your video needs.

   
   

2. Step 2: Pre-Production

   Once the concept is approved, we move into the planning. Here, we create the project's blueprint, including storyboards and scripts, to ensure we are perfectly aligned on the vision. We also handle location scouting, casting (if needed), and scheduling. Meticulous planning at this stage is the key to a successful shoot. We use cloud-based tools to share progress and assets, so you are always up to date.

   
   

3. Step 3: Production & Post-Production

   Our experienced, bilingual crew, executes the plan with precision and artistry. After the shoot, we move into editing, color grading, sound design, and graphics. We share a first cut for your review and incorporate your feedback to polish the video to perfection.

   
   

4. Step 4: Delivery & Beyond

   Upon your final approval, we deliver the finished video in all the formats you need—for your website, social media, events, and more. But our partnership doesn't have to end there. We are available to advise on distribution strategy or create shorter cuts from the existing footage for your social media channels.

"Working with a global leader like Expedia Group, we were tasked with producing content on a tight schedule while coordinating with multiple stakeholders across the Asia-Pacific region. We established a highly transparent workflow with clear milestones and regular online meetings that respected different time zones and were able to deliver in time.

Our process is designed to make you feel like we're in the office next door, no matter where you are in the world.
