POV Video Production for Sports & Entertainment

POV Video for
Sport & Entertainment

We turn match day, from the gate to the seats and pitchside, plus the hours outside the game, into first-person (POV) vertical short video seen exactly as someone there sees it, and use it to drive attendance and ticket sales. As the first SNS marketing company in Japan to be an official Insta360 partner, we bring high-quality creative to everything end to end, from deciding what to show to filming, editing, posting on Instagram and TikTok and turning the videos that land into ads, shaped to your business.

Why POV

4 benefits of POV video for sport and entertainment

  • Illustration of a stand with obvious empty seats and only a scattering of spectators

    Merit 01

    Longer viewing

    Show the view from the seat before they come

    People who have never come know nothing of the matchday atmosphere or the view from the seats. POV that follows a fan's view from the gate to the seat lets them watch as if they were there.

  • Illustration of older members holding membership cards, with a small group of younger people standing apart

    Merit 02

    A way in

    A way in for people new to the sport

    Your fans see your content, but there is no footage that lets newcomers in. POV that shows training, travel and backstage from a player's eye level is enjoyable even without knowing the rules.

  • Illustration of a lone member of staff carrying chairs and equipment behind the scenes at a stadium, with an empty rack of staff bibs on the wall

    Merit 03

    No performers

    Show behind-the-scenes work without showing faces

    Most of the job is sponsor relations and venue operations, and days off fall when everyone else works. Job ads don't show that, but POV with no faces on camera can show it through the eyes of the staff behind the scenes.

  • Illustration of a ticket booth, with young people looking at their phones some distance away

    Merit 04

    Plenty of videos

    Enough videos to reach young fans every week

    Information sitting on official channels doesn't reach the screens young people actually watch. POV just adds a camera to everyday activity, so it yields plenty of videos for weekly posting.

Numbers

    Reason 01

    Japan's first

    A professional POV team

    A chest-mounted camera follows the way from the gate to the seat, sharing the view from the stands without showing fans' faces. We are Japan's first social media marketing company officially recognized by Insta360.

  • Illustration of play, heart and save icons rising from a row of vertical phones, with a growth curve behind and a sprout at their feet

    Reason 02

    10M+views/month

    An organic track record that speaks for itself

    What makes videos grow is something we have proven running accounts without ad spend. Videos are delivered cleared for reuse, so they work in paid ads, on ticketing pages and in sponsor proposals.

  • Illustration of cards showing the scenes to feature, connected by arrows to a vertical video frame

    Reason 03

    Sharp angles

    Hands-on insight across industries

    The route from the gate to the seat, training, travel, backstage. We pick out scenes that give newcomers a way in, and turn them into a shooting route and number of videos.

  • Illustration of icons for strategy, planning, filming, posting and analysis on a single loop around a vertical phone

    Reason 04

    Fully handled

    From filming to reuse, all in one place

    8 to 10 videos from a six-hour day. Without cutting into training time, we build up enough to post on TikTok and Instagram every week. A video covering setup to teardown goes to your job ads.

FAQ

Questions we are often asked in sport and entertainment

Does it work as video without any footage of play?

It works without match footage. Honestly, what reaches people who don't know the sport is the time away from the game. The matchday experience from the gate to the seat, plus training, travel and community events seen through the athlete's eyes, carry it.

Can you make it without our players or performers appearing on camera?

Yes, without faces. POV puts the operator's field of view on screen, so nobody has to be the subject. If you want to mix in ideas that do show faces, we propose those as a separate format alongside.

How many videos come out of one shoot? We can't interrupt training.

Eight to ten videos in a six-hour day, and up to twelve videos' worth in a two-hour slot. Training never stops for filming; it's a camera added to what you already do. We agree what can be filmed together at the first meeting.

Can we borrow the equipment and film ourselves?

Filming it yourselves is an option. We lend the Insta360 equipment and show you on site where to mount it and how long a cut should be, then your press officer or the players film. Editing and delivery stay with us.

How long does delivery take, and can we use the video elsewhere?

As little as seven working days from concept. Secondary use is included, so it works in paid social, on ticketing pages, in sponsor pitch decks and on venue screens. Swap the translation and it works overseas too.

Have you produced POV video in sport and entertainment?

We have. We filmed home games and open training for Reilac Shiga FC in POV, and over the engagement attendance rose by 1,500 and social followers by 5,000. We have also produced first-person vlogs for talent. Work across other industries is collected on the POV Studio service page.

Case studies with sports and entertainment are shown in the results section on this page and in Works.

What does it cost, and what is the going rate?

Social media management and POV video production come as a single plan, from JPY 300,000 a month. Pricing moves with the number of videos and the ideas behind them, so we quote individually once we know how often you want to film and what the concepts are. Secondary use is allowed, and recommendations for linking with ads are included. There is no charge for filming equipment (as an official Insta360 partner, we lend it). If ads are run, media spend is charged separately at cost.

Which company runs this service?

TripClear Inc., based in Shinsen-cho, Shibuya, Tokyo. Our core is social media management and vertical short-form video production, and we support sport and entertainment. For the company profile, see Company.

Can you work with sports clubs, fitness clubs and gyms too?

We work with club teams, sports clubs, fitness clubs and gyms alike, because the daily life of training and the facility becomes the material.

In the sports industry, we run social media for a club team.
