Aardvark Video & Media Productions

What Aardvark Video & Media Productions does

Aardvark Video & Media Productions is a privately-held, founder-owned full-service video production company headquartered in the Las Vegas, Nevada (Henderson) area, founded locally in 2002 by Richard DePaso following an earlier New York video company he started in 1987. The company operates with a small team (1-10 employees) and offers end-to-end video services covering pre-production planning, on-location and studio shooting, and post-production editing. Its core service portfolio spans convention and trade show videography, corporate/business and social media video production, training and educational content, presentation and panel recording with PowerPoint integration, live video streaming, and 360-degree virtual tours. Technical delivery relies on a professional equipment inventory that includes Telestream Wirecast, NewTek Tricaster, BlackMagic Design capture cards (Duo, Mini Recorder, Mini Monitor, Intensity Pro), BlackMagic Ultrastudio SDI-to-Thunderbolt units, and a Switcher Studio mobile-based low-cost live-streaming setup capable of live-switching up to 12 iOS devices to YouTube, Facebook, Zoom, and Shopify.

Revenue is generated through project-based professional services engagements. The company does not publish pricing tiers; quotes are customized per project based on scope, duration, equipment, and crew requirements, with free consultations as the primary intake mechanism. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct, relying on website CTAs for free quotes, toll-free and local phone numbers, email outreach, and referrals — supplemented by organic content marketing across YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Yelp, and a blog positioning the firm as a Las Vegas video production thought leader. Customer mix spans enterprise (past logos include Microsoft, IBM, Samsung, Mobil Oil, Verizon, Casio, GE, QVC), mid-market (Avaya, Claimocity), SMBs (Las Vegas Window Tinting), startups (Bracelet Buddy, Top Chef contestant), and tourism/government organizations (Las Vegas Territory, Central Garden Show), with primary use-case segments being trade show and convention organizers, corporate/business clients, training and educational institutions, and event planners.

The company is founder-operated with no disclosed external funding, no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no M&A activity. Strategic momentum over 2017-2022 has been driven by deepening the Las Vegas Territory content relationship (2017, 2019, 2020 engagements) and extending the product surface into low-cost mobile live streaming via the Switcher Studio partnership (2022) and Shopify-integrated live commerce. Recognition includes the 2022 Best of Nevada Award from Upcity, and operating geographies remain regionally concentrated in Southern Nevada.

Direct peers

• Wyzowl: Explainer video and animated content agency serving B2B marketers globally. Comparable service scope (product demos, explainers, corporate video) and customer overlap with Aardvark's business and social media video practice.
• Lemonlight: National full-service video production company offering branded content, product explainers, and social media video for enterprises. Highly comparable to Aardvark on service mix and customer type, though operating at a larger, multi-city scale.
• Explainify: Explainer video agency producing animated and live-action product, SaaS, and brand videos. Overlaps with Aardvark's product-demo and training video services for B2B clients.
• Blue Carrot: Video production company producing explainer, corporate, training, and event videos for B2B clients. Comparable service breadth to Aardvark's training, business, and presentation-recording offerings.
• WowMakers: Explainer video and animated content studio serving global B2B brands. Adjacent but comparable competitor in product-demo, explainer, and corporate video categories where Aardvark also competes.
• Casual Films: Global corporate video production agency producing brand, internal communications, and event video for enterprise clients (including Microsoft). Direct competitor for the same enterprise budgets Aardvark serves in the corporate/communications category.

Emerging players

• Switcher Studio: Mobile multi-camera live streaming platform integrated with YouTube, Facebook, Zoom, and Shopify. Both a partner of Aardvark and a competitive substitute, since clients can use Switcher directly without a production crew.

Regional players

• Cool Blue Productions: Las Vegas-based video production company serving local corporate, event, and trade show clients. Most direct geographic competitor to Aardvark in the Southern Nevada market.
