World-class video storytelling
for unique real estate and hospitality projects, amplified by a global audience of over 100,000 subscribers.
Creative Media That Moves Markets
Creative Power. Global Reach.
Every project is creatively directed by an award-winning team led by Damien Sung, ensuring cinematic quality, narrative clarity, and consistent brand expression across every frame.
Our distribution strategies are shaped by deep platform intelligence built over decades inside the Google and YouTube ecosystems, enabling content to travel further, perform better, and compound value over time.
Built for Buyers. Designed for Results.
Uchi Media operates inside a global property media platform built around real buyer behaviour, not passive traffic. Across uchijapan.com, a 130,000-subscriber newsletter, and owned social channels, we reach an international audience actively researching lifestyle property, relocation, and long-term investment in Japan. Unlike static portals, our audience is continuously engaged through video, editorial, and repeat discovery.
YouTube is our primary growth engine, with over 100,000 subscribers consuming long-form cinematic property content that allows buyers to understand design, location, and lifestyle long before they enquire. Instagram and Facebook reinforce visibility throughout the research journey, keeping projects top-of-mind as intent develops.
We don’t show properties once, we build familiarity over time. Viewers who engage with Uchi content continue to see relevant projects as they move closer to decision, creating smarter exposure, better-informed enquiries, and a more efficient path from interest to action for our partners.
Our Story
Uchi Media grew out of building one of the world’s leading resort real estate platforms, giving us a deep understanding of what drives attention, enquiry, and buyer decision-making at scale.
We create distinctive property films and social content that work across mobile and digital platforms, from individual homes and unique land opportunities to large developments and resorts worldwide.
Rooted in Japanese craft and global creative collaboration, Uchi Media focuses on clarity, authenticity, and strong visual storytelling rather than marketing noise. Every project is designed to travel well across modern channels and deliver lasting commercial value.
We love working with clients who value craft, trust the creative process, and share a clear ambition for how their property, resort, or brand should be experienced. The strongest projects emerge when there is genuine collaboration, where our clients’ vision and our creative approach synchronise, allowing ideas to sharpen, decisions to align, and the final work to elevate the asset with confidence and clarity.

What we’ve been up to while you weren’t looking
From concept to final cut, we handle briefing, planning, shooting, and editing. Capture the essence of your property and share it with the world through our unique and bespoke films.
Working entirely from still photography and externally sourced video, including footage from the local tourism board, Uchi Media developed the creative concept, wrote the script, and built a cinematic narrative without an on-site shoot. Static imagery was animated using AI techniques and layered with landscape footage to communicate scale, opportunity, and context. The project highlights our ability to combine client assets, third-party content, and creative technology into a cohesive, high-impact storytelling asset.
With the hotel still under construction, Uchi Media filmed inside a completed model room and combined this with original scripting, Uchi-shot destination footage, and selective AI enhancement. The team crafted a cohesive visual narrative that communicated material quality, atmosphere, and lifestyle positioning before physical completion. The project demonstrates Uchi Media’s ability to visualise future environments and create compelling marketing assets under real-world development constraints.
With only 20 high-quality still images supplied by the client, Uchi Media created a fully realised film using motion design, AI-driven animation, and curated Uchi stock footage. The team designed pacing, narrative flow, and visual rhythm to bring architecture, light, and spatial experience to life from static assets.
The project demonstrates how limited source material can be transformed into premium marketing content through intelligent creative direction and technical execution.
Working entirely from client-supplied photos and mobile video footage, Uchi Media developed the script, narrative structure, and visual treatment remotely.
Editing, colour grading, curated stock footage, and AI enhancements
were used to elevate production quality and visual consistency
without on-site filming.
The project illustrates how scalable remote production can unlock strong
marketing outcomes even for individual standalone listings.

Ongoing Creative Partnerships
For larger developments and resorts, Uchi Media offers retainer-based partnerships that enable the creation of ongoing content series rather than one-off campaigns.
This allows projects to build sustained visibility, audience loyalty, and long-term brand value through regular storytelling, seasonal content, construction updates, and lifestyle narratives.
Our own “I Love Niseko” YouTube series demonstrates how consistent, high-quality production can compound reach and engagement over time, transforming media into a strategic growth asset rather than a marketing expense.
If a retainer partnership is something you’d like to explore, we’re very open to discussing it. This approach gives clients a steady production flow, faster turnaround, and a deeper brand alignment, typically resulting in more effective long-term outcomes across digital channels.
