Welcome to Tokyo Media Watch. TMW is a site where people who are interested in the Japanese entertainment industry can read up on industry articles, personal stories, behind-the-scenes happenings, and also exchange information. We cover areas from music, film, television, photography, design, books, magazines, to art and beyond.
More and more foreigners are coming to Japan who are interested in becoming something other than just an English teacher. They have seen the diverse, high-quality media that is coming out of Japan and have decided they want to be part of the action. As you know, foreigners have always been limited in what they can do in Japan, due to stereotypes and the attitudes of people here. However, those attitudes are changing. Foreigners are likely to start taking bigger roles in the arts and entertainment industry in Japan in the future, and TMW is here to support them.
Let us know if you want to contribute articles, insights, or just stories about your experiences in Japan. Also, visit our forum to discuss topics with other artists. Yoroshiku!
