CueRio is a local filming fixer support organisation based in Tokyo, Japan.
Our main focus is to provide fixer support for crews from all over the world, but we can all work as a producer, a director and a videographer as well. Our multilingual staff can support your project anywhere in Japan from Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, to even the Hokkaido and the Kyushu area. Our support ranges from Pre Production Support to Recce, Filming, and Post Production support. We also have the remote filming option in which we form a crew with our local partner and film clips for you.
If you are looking for a fixer in Japan, we are the best option for you, so please feel free to contact us!
