Creating Property Videos
• About home, not you
• Music, not you speaking
• Move camera slowly, no fast pans
• Pan from one corner of room to other
• Back to window for lighting purposes
• Don't try to
do in one take. Can edit different scenes together
• Start fro
m outside home, showing exterior
• Then show entering home
• Then show walking through front foyer into home. Keep camera as
steady as possible
• Then show rooms, using the corner to corner pan technique
• Show views, yard, club houses etc.
• Have a separate video of neighborhood overview
