About us

We are looking for international partners seeking to make great stories in Japan.
TNC is an internationally award-winning “storytelling” company that offers its capabilities to a wide range of corporations and governments. There are only 50 or so production companies in Japan that are recognized by the Film Makers Association, and it is rare to find a company that demonstrates production capabilities outside of the industry.

TNC, together with over 500 business partners, provides corporations and governments with storytelling projects not only for “Cinema” but also for a wide range of genres from commercials, PR and consulting to the educational field. With our compact and elite staff, we have a cost competitiveness that cannot be imitated by the major productions.
