Timewitch Entertainment: A New Era of Collaboration

In an exciting move poised to elevate the branding landscape, Timewitch Inc. has officially launched Timewitch Entertainment, a creative studio aimed at reinventing brand expressions and cultural narratives in collaboration with talented Japanese creators working globally. Led by CEO Takashi Okada and Ken Kinosuke Miura, the studio combines the innovative ideas of Japanese creators with Timewitch’s unique time-difference production system, enabling a fresh approach to various creative fields including music, art, design, and multimedia.

The Vision Behind Timewitch Entertainment

Founded on the principle of creating a world where creativity can flow freely across borders, Timewitch has expanded its Geolocation BPO services (Business Process Outsourcing) to foster collaboration among Japanese professionals abroad. With a community of over 500 expatriate Japanese creatives, Timewitch harnesses a network akin to that of Jewish and Chinese diasporas—aiming to support global expansion efforts and facilitate English-speaking services through its member-only platform, Witcher World.

The inspiration for Timewitch Entertainment stems from observing that many businesses, despite holding profound narratives, often lack the freedom to express these stories creatively on a global scale. Frequent challenges include narrow views confined by domestic customs or a lack of emotional resonance in their messaging. Recognizing the importance of multicultural perspectives, Timewitch firmly believes that Japanese creators who have invaluable international experiences can bridge these gaps. Their unique blend of innovative thinking and intrinsic Japanese qualities positions them as crucial catalysts for expanding a brand's reach.

What Timewitch Entertainment Offers

Timewitch Entertainment aims to provide multiple value points to businesses associated with their branding initiatives:

• - Story Design: By conducting deep research into a company’s philosophy, history, and values, they help recraft these narratives into compelling stories that resonate globally.

• - Global Standards through Multicultural Creators: Utilizing the insights of those with overseas experience enables brands to flourish in international markets.

• - Speedy Production Leveraging Time Differences: With a 24-hour production workflow, Timewitch ensures both rapid turnaround times and high-quality outputs.

• - Meticulous Japanese Communication: The studio emphasizes a communicative approach that values traditional Japanese aesthetics, ensuring services are both thorough and culturally nuanced.

Launch Projects: On Earth and Terminal

The studio’s inaugural projects include the cultural book On Earth and an original music album titled Terminal, both available in limited quantities for 100,000 Yen before tax. On Earth beautifully encapsulates Timewitch’s core values, beliefs, and vision through a fusion of text, photography, and visual art, showcasing the impressive stories of Japanese expatriates making their mark worldwide. Meanwhile, Terminal explores the emotional depth of music to create a powerful impression of the brand’s identity—centered around the theme of “stepping into the world.”

This dual release is designed to reshape the way corporate cultures and narratives are experienced, creating a holistic representation of their essence through various media.

The Creative Team Behind Terminal

Timewitch Entertainment boasts a diverse lineup of Japanese creators who bring global insights and sensibilities to the project. Their extensive experiences in multicultural settings enable them to generate novel ideas and communicate effectively across cultures:

• - Kana Okajima: An essential asset to the team, she has contributed to over 850 tracks for renowned artists and has earned multiple accolades. Her capabilities span various countries, helping connect Japanese art with international audiences.
• - KAY: Known for contributions to popular Japanese acts, he also brings experience from the USA and Korea, enhancing the project’s global appeal.
• - Kaoru Miyazaki: With a deep understanding of UK music culture, he produces captivating melodies that resonate beyond Japanese borders.

Beyond Music and Visuals: Comic Development

An exciting aspect of Timewitch Entertainment’s approach is its incorporation of manga into brand development. The medium’s ability to convey emotions and nuances makes it a compelling tool, as demonstrated in their comic series Sleep Well, which presents the true startup journey of co-founders Takashi Okada and Ken Kinosuke Miura. This series is a snapshot of their entrepreneurial spirit, showcasing the challenges and triumphs faced.

Visionary Statements

Okada and Miura, the dynamic duo behind Timewitch, expressed their enduring belief in the power of creativity to transcend borders. They strive to offer a platform for Japanese creators to shape the future of branding, ultimately fostering a society where creativity abounds.

They commented, “By enabling innovative expressions that draw from diverse perspectives, we can cultivate brands with authentic narratives and impactful futures.” The release of On Earth and Terminal signifies just the beginning of this visionary effort.
