established. Dam Eight) (Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Masayuki Ozaki) has started business. The word “Creadom” in the company name is a coined word that is a combination of the root words “create” and “creative” and the suffix “-dom” (similar examples: fandom, freedom, kingdom). The number “8” has the meaning of auspicious expansion and the desire for connections that lead to “∞” (infinity). We will focus on short-length animation such as short dramas, music videos, and corporate commercials as the core of our business, and will also focus on strengthening business with clients not only in Japan but also overseas.

In the future, by utilizing new funding schemes such as content funds, we will connect investors and creators around the world, provide appropriate returns to production sites, and contribute to building a sustainable production ecosystem. I would like to continue doing so. Furthermore, as part of our public relations activities, we operate a YouTube channel, “Masayuki Ozaki’s Anime Channel,” where we disseminate information about the anime business and invite a variety of guests, mainly executives and creators in the entertainment industry, to hold valuable talks.
