biography

The first step in Nakano's film career was a position on the executive board of a television station in Osaka . Around 1982 Nakano moved to another department within the television station, where he was allowed to take on the role of director and producer of entertainment programs for the first time.

Shortly afterwards he created his first music videos, but not yet professionally, but more as a hobby. But as early as 1985 he founded the Tyrell Corporation ( タ イ レ ル コ ー ポ レ ー シ ョ ン , Taireru Kōporēshon ), the first production company for music videos in Japan. Even though Nakano gave up playing guitar as a hobby when he was at school, he never lost his enthusiasm for music, as can be seen in his music videos and later in his feature films. As it gained greater recognition in the years that followed , Tyrell Corporation expanded and was renamed Peacedelic Studios in 1992.

In 1996, Nakano met Tomoyasu Hotei , became friends with him and worked with him from then on. The result of this cooperation is Nakano's most famous film Samurai Fiction , in which Hotei played one of the leading roles. In contrast to Nakano's subsequent film productions, the film received mostly laudatory reviews.
