Japan offers an extraordinary range of locations for film, photography, and commercial productions, combining dramatic natural landscapes with rich cultural heritage.
LOCATION SCOUTING
At KOOKIE, we specialize in location scouting in Japan, with focus on the mountain regions of Hakuba, Nagano, and Hokkaido, uncovering alpine peaks, ski resorts, remote wilderness, and traditional villages ideal for outdoor and nature-focused projects.
Our scouting approach balances creative potential with production practicality. Every location is explored first-hand, with careful consideration of access, light, seasonality, and logistics. Whether you need high-altitude alpine terrain, powder runs, serene forests, lakes, or traditional mountain villages and temples, we provide locations that deliver both visual impact and production-ready functionality.
INSIGHT
With hands-on experience across these regions, our team documents all locations in our own archive - photographed and tested on location. From the mountains and forests of Hakuba and Nagano to the remote northern reaches of Hokkaido, Japan offers versatile, cinematic outdoor locations that bring nature-inspired projects to life.
