We have been requested to share the following opportunity:
“Hi everyone!
I’m Greg Tulchin, a TV director currently working on the NHK program「最深日本研究 〜外国人博士の目〜」 a new documentary series which began broadcasting in November 2024 (https://www.nhk.jp/p/ts/PG7NRXY592/).
This series follows foreign anthropologists based in or out of Japan whose research focuses on a particular aspect of Japanese culture (The two episodes we’ve broadcasted so far were on “babiniku” culture and snack bar culture). These anthropologists must be professors or PHD students at a university in Japan or outside of Japan. Each episode of the series follows one anthropologist’s field work over a shooting period of 4 days (not necessarily consecutive). For anthropologists based outside of Japan, we have the budget to bring you over to Japan for the shooting period. We’re looking for all kinds of subjects, obscure or not, as long as they can tell us something about Japanese society. So if you’d like for more people to know about your research, or know someone you think deserves more attention, it would be great if you could contact me! My email is greg.tulchin’at mark’gmail.com.
Thank you very much.”
