facility tour

"A 3-hour tour . . ." Take a quick tour of our plush but not overly ostentatious facility.

Aardvark Productions was founded in September, 1994, when owner Eric Filios still had most of his own hair.

A broadcasting veteran since 1974, Eric hasn’t seen it all, but he’s seen most of it. Eric started editing on 3/4” reel to reel video tape, actually physically cutting the tape to make the edit! He perfected a rudimentary replay system for covering high school sports while at the local origination cable station in Wooster, Ohio.

In 1976, he moved to WCTI-TV12 in New Bern, NC, where he edited commercials, and directed the news at 6 and 11pm, among other things.

In 1985 he moved to Charlotte, NC to work at Sunbelt Video, where he directed and edited the award-winning “Inside Winston Cup Racing” for TNN. Later he moved into the job of production manager.

In 1994 he started Aardvark Productions in a 200 sq. ft. office with an ImMix TurboCube non-linear edit system. Eric was an early adopter of the non-linear format, and that continues to this day. Our new High Definition system will follow that path.

1999 marked Aardvark’s

How to get here:

Take I-77 S. to John Belk Freeway (277) exit, #9;

loop around and head east; stay right and get off at the 3rd St. exit; at bottom of ramp, go right on 3rd St. (one way); cross Kings, Charlottetown Ave. (formerly Independence), and Queens Rd./Hawthorne. At the next light, turn left at Presbyterian Hospital onto Caswell. Cross 4th St.,
5th St. and 7th St./Monroe Rd. Caswell turns into Pecan Ave. at that intersection. Go straight
