Hi everyone,
I'm seriously thinking about moving to Japan and would love some advice from people who have gone through something similar or have knowledge about the process.
I work in the audiovisual field, mainly as a cameraman and video editor. I have experience with different types of projects (advertising, music videos, events, social media content, etc.), and I’m curious about how realistic it would be to find work in Japan in this industry.
Some specific questions I have:
How is the audiovisual job market for foreigners?
What level of Japanese is truly necessary to work in the field? (I'm starting to study it, but I'm still at a basic level.)
Are there specific agencies or platforms to find freelance or full-time jobs?
Besides Tokyo, are there other cities with good opportunities in this industry?
What type of visa would be most suitable?
Any advice, experiences, or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much in advance!
