What's more, the recently formed Japan Film Commission has announced that it is working hard on a system of national film incentives that will make shooting in Japan even more cost-effective.

There are so many smart ways for smart producers to save money on their Japanese production. Depending on the locale, local film commissions may provide:

• Lists of registered volunteer extras who will work for just a meal
• Reimbursement of local transportation and accommodation expenses for most location scout trips
• Exemption from local shooting permit fees

There are so many ways to save on your Japanese production. TK Creatives can help you do it!
