Mitsu Hagiwara
Chief Executive Producer
Since 1998
Mitsu officially joined Hideoki Productions in 1998 and in 2005, he was honored to take the reins as CEO and make the thriving production company a second-generation business.

Mitsu’s work ranges from leading complex insight research studies, car shoots to superstar high budget projects, to camping and photographing in nature reserves. Mitsu is a different kind of producer. With his versatility – from sports to carpentry, number crunching to dancing, waffle-making to wilderness survival – he has proven to meet and exceed client expectations!
