About Us

Engineering high-impact visual assets and results-driven commercial campaigns—proudly anchored in Jacksonville, NC, and deploying elite cinema configurations across Eastern North Carolina.

Built for Outcomes. Engineered for Scale.

Black Gate Productions is an on-site commercial video company in Jacksonville, North Carolina.

We plan the goal first, then we show up and shoot. The video should have a job when it is done: call, book, come in. If we cannot write that in one sentence, we should not start.

Chris Lee runs the work. Producer and creative director. He studied marketing at Post University. That matters because a pretty video with no ask still wastes your week.

We are not a studio you visit. We come to you. When the job is small, the crew stays small.

If you want to see whether we fit, start the short Project Alignment Assessment.
