Crossing Cultures

We understand Japanese audiences, trends and culture. We have a diverse international team lead by Mat Sliwinski. Our team has a wealth of experience in building video content, working in a cross-cultural context, and bridging the gap between cultures.

Sakura Digital is the intersection between our 2 passions: Japan & Marketing.

Why Video?

Video content was 82% of all internet traffic in 2023. In 2024, this number only continues to rise. This is definitely a staggering statistic and it's a clear indication that video marketing is the way to go in promoting your brand. Not only this, but Japan also has the 3rd largest internet population in the world. This means that there is ample opportunity online that your brand cannot afford to ignore.

We facilitate the distribution channels of your videos, as we understand the language, the platforms and content that is used in connecting with your customers. This enables you to focus on other areas of your business, while we take care of all the heavy lifting.

Working With Us

See tangible results.

As a small but tight knit team, we believe personal is better. We also know that videos deliver results. This is why we combine our filmmaking know-how and expertise to create for you content that is engaging, compelling and cause people to take action.

Distribution focused.

If a video does not cause the audience to take action, then it is ineffective. This is why we create a targeted strategy that will ensure that the video speaks to the right audience, and through the right channel. It’s about where and how it’s seen, not just what is seen.

Collaborative partnership.

Because of our size, we have the ability to get personal with our clients. We don't just offer a service, we offer a journey and a relationship. This better allows us to help you stay ahead of the competition, and create top notch video strategies that spur the interest in your audience.
