Post house

The suites

Port City Films keeps its post suites, its equipment, and its crew in one building at 1470 N. Kerr Avenue in Wilmington, North Carolina. Editorial, color, and finishing all happen on site.

What is a post house?

A post house is a facility that finishes film and video: editorial , color, sound, graphics, and delivery, under one roof with the rooms and the people to do it.

Why one building matters

The suites, the gear, and the people who use them are all in one building. A director can walk into the edit. A colorist can pull the original camera files rather than a transcode someone emailed. An assistant editor can find the shot that got cut on day two because the media never left.
