They are in Japan much longer then for only the opening. They are in Japan for quite some time. Pretty much half of the video? After the momement speeds up they travell through Tokyo some. Harajuku is very easy to spot for an example. I think it's not befor somewhere 3 minutes they actually arrive in L.A.
Anywho, I don't think this PV was cheap to make, neither expensive. Somewhere in between. While it's still simple to walk around in the desert taking photos all day they had to match up that walk within a day (weather looking sunny and bright in all photos expect the last ones). I think they had to divide it into several of days. It's transport in Japan and Tokyo, transport to the US and back, special effects for the plane in the air, subway and such.
