We handle all types of material
Corporate and product videos
Motion pictures have the power to communicate your business or product in a multitude of ways.
Staff training
Training videos are a great tool for HR training programs. Visuals can add a level of detail and immediacy that makes content easier to absorb.
Events and trade shows
Videos can add life to events, helping to create a sense of unity among the participants. At trade shows, a video presentation can provide enhanced impact and get your aims and ideas across more effectively.
Recruitment
Corporate videos that make your company shine to potential recruits.
We use a range of techniques to produce corporate videos that will appeal to their target audience, particularly a younger demographic.
TV production
We have a strong track record of producing a variety of TV programs for both Japanese and overseas broadcast markets.
Commercial production
Whether for TV or the Web, we produce commercials for Japanese and overseas markets. We offer various production options, including live action, animation, and CG.
We’re not a translation company,
but we make videos in 30 different languages.
We create multilingual content to get your message across in Japan and around the globe.
This is what The Magnolia Company does best.
We have specialized skills in video production and video translation to create content for distribution both domestically and overseas.
Video translation is more than just changing the language, requiring specialized skills and knowledge, but that’s not all.
Based on our experience and achievements, Magnolia Company has recognized that creating content for overseas markets requires more than just changing the language.
Japanese “common sense” is sometimes no good overseas.
In video production we make a conscious effort to try to avoid things that people overseas may not like or understand.
Here are some examples:
Japanese food is popular overseas, but in Western Europe it is not customary to hold a dish in your hands while you eat.
It may be seen as rude or vulgar.
Blood type is a favorite discussion topic among Japanese women.
But asking someone from overseas what their blood type is will leave them nonplussed.
Casual behavior can also cause more serious misunderstandings.
Try waving your outstretched hand at a server to get his or her attention in a restaurant.
If you’re in Germany or the surrounding countries, you may get some frosty looks.
You have unwittingly made a Nazi salute.
To the contrary, we also use images of uniquely Japanese things that, while completely ordinary here, are surprisingly popular with overseas audiences.
In this way, we have devised a non-verbal means of expression for video content.
