CONCEPT

 

Creating the Future with Our Power

The Japanese language is our precious culture.
From classics such as Kabuki and Joruri, to present works such as animation, games, and localization contents, the “Japanese Language” is Japanese culture itself.

Technology continues to evolve, and our language continues to change.
We listen to the voice of this changing world as we deliver our thoughts to the future through the Japanese language.

We aim to connect with the audiences who see and hear the films, so we find it important to utilize our “human” skills when doing our work. While living and coexisting with innovative digital technology, we will continue to make exciting contents with our passion.

PRESIDENT’s MESSAGE

A Stimulating Cutting Edge Audio Production

More than 60 years have passed since the start of television broadcasting and dubbing of foreign content. With so many memories, thanks to you, the 81 Group is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year.

Our group companies place high priorities on the followings,
– dealing with language seriously and creating high-quality works
– developing the next-generation of staff/cast responsible for audio production
– cultivating the cultural theory of sound production and Japanese version production.

As the field of video content expands, the opportunities for voice actors and audio production are expanding beyond Japan to the world. In this changing age, I feel that our mission is to pass on the technologies and cultures we have cultivated so far to the next generation.
We hope that a stimulating voice production industry continuously thrives, that we co-exist with the gems of film production which highlight the age, and to be loved and supported by you forever.
