CDS Visuals is a video production company based at 377 Rubin Center Drive in Fort Mill, SC — about twenty minutes south of uptown Charlotte. We produce video for construction and manufacturing companies across the Charlotte metro, covering Fort Mill and Rock Hill in York County, South Carolina and Charlotte and the rest of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Our crews shoot jobsite documentation, brand videos, recruiting video, customer testimonials, product walkarounds, and trade-show coverage — on active sites, in full PPE, without shutting your work down. Every crew member is OSHA 10 certified and our drone pilots are FAA Part 107 licensed. Most projects are delivered in three to five business days, and every clip and photo we shoot goes into a searchable library you own.
Most agencies hand you a final cut and keep the rest. We hand you everything — every video, every photo, every clip, tagged, searchable, and yours to keep. Your team finds the shot they need in 30 seconds, not 30 minutes.
From the first call to content that's working for you, you'll always know exactly what happens next.
Our studio is at 377 Rubin Center Drive, Suite 123, Fort Mill, SC 29708 — in York County, about twenty minutes south of uptown Charlotte. You can reach us at (704) 946-5886 or info@cdsvisuals.com. We do not have a Charlotte street address; Fort Mill is the office, and the Charlotte metro is the neighborhood.
Yes — that is where almost all of our work happens. We shoot on active jobsites, plants, and shop floors across Mecklenburg County, NC and York County, SC, and regularly across the rest of the Carolinas: the Piedmont Triad, Lincolnton, Ridgeway, Raleigh, and Hickory. We also travel nationwide when a client needs us on a site outside the region, and travel is built into our pricing.
Inside the Charlotte metro we can usually be on your site within the same week, and often within a couple of days for something urgent. Because the studio is twenty minutes from the state line, there is no travel day burned getting to a York County or Mecklenburg County job. First cut is typically 3–5 business days after the shoot.
Our crew is OSHA 10 certified and our drone pilots are FAA Part 107 licensed. We bring our own hard hats, vests, glasses, and boots, brief with your superintendent before we roll, and work around your schedule instead of stopping it.
You do. Every final video, every photo, and all the raw assets live in a searchable library that is yours to keep — whether we work together once or for years.
That is the core of what we do and where we are strongest — contractors, manufacturers, and equipment dealers. We have also produced for homebuilders and technology companies in the region. If you are not sure whether you fit, book a call and we will tell you straight.
Yes. We handle corporate video production for Charlotte-area companies — brand films, customer testimonials, recruiting video, and commercial video for the web and social. Our style leans field-shot and real over studio gloss, which is exactly why corporate clients like ZEISS and Truliant hired us. If your company builds, makes, moves, or services real things, we are a strong fit.
Yes — event and trade-show coverage is one of the busiest things we do. For Charlotte-area conferences, corporate events, groundbreakings, and open houses we shoot on site and can turn recap and social cuts around fast, often same-day for events. The same crew covers national shows: clients have flown us to ConExpo and PaveX to run their booth coverage.
Every line below is a place we have actually worked — not a service-area map we drew on a whiteboard.
