Propaganda Studio is a full-service photo and video production company operating across Asia, with permanent teams based in Shanghai, Seoul, Tokyo & Singapore and an established network across China, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and Southeast Asia.
We support two types of client — international brands and agencies bringing their own creative team to Asia who need a trusted local production partner on the ground, and clients who need both a photographer or filmmaker and full production support. In both cases we handle every stage of the process, from pre-production planning through to final delivery.
Our bilingual teams — fluent in Mandarin, Korean, Japenese, English and French — bridge the gap between international creative vision and local execution, ensuring every shoot runs smoothly regardless of market.
Services
We manage every aspect of studio and on-location productions across Asia — from casting and technical crew to set design and post-production coordination. Our trusted network of local partners across Shanghai, Seoul, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Taipei and Singapore ensures the creative and technical needs of every project are met to international standards.

Shot over two days in Seoul with a team of 50 people and seven dogs, the campaign was photographed by Daniel Arnold and filmed by director of photography Mike Beech. As the local production agency, Propaganda Studio managed every aspect of the production on the ground — from casting, location scouting and logistics to crew coordination, on-set production management and delivery

Propaganda Studio was commissioned by FedEx to produce their Asia lifestyle advertising campaign, shot across Shanghai, China and Seoul, South Korea — a full multi-market production covering photography, logistics and on-set coordination across two countries simultaneously.
Photographed by Tim Franco and Maxim VDN, the campaign captured authentic lifestyle moments across China and South Korea for FedEx's international marketing. Propaganda Studio handled the complete production on the ground in both markets — from casting, locations and crew coordination in Shanghai to the full production setup in Seoul — delivering a cohesive visual campaign across two distinct markets.
The FedEx Asia campaign has since been featured on FedEx's own global website — a strong endorsement of the quality and brand alignment of the imagery produced.
