How to edit a video for luxury home walkthrough

Turn exterior, room and architectural-detail clips into a story for real estate videographers. Make the real relationship between spaces understandable from the supplied route and wide views.

Give the video a clear purpose

Make the real relationship between spaces understandable from the supplied route and wide views.

Think about what real estate videographers need the viewer to understand first. Use the opening to establish that idea, then let the next shots add detail.

Build your shot list

  1. The home exterior
  2. The route through connected rooms
  3. A material or architectural detail
  4. A person giving scale to the space
  5. The strongest actual view

Put the moments in order

Open with the home exterior. Connect it to the route through connected rooms and a material or architectural detail, then use a person giving scale to the space to add detail. Finish with the strongest actual view.

Use supplied room labels and verified property details.

Open with the home exterior, follow with the route through connected rooms, a material or architectural detail, a person giving scale to the space, and finish with the strongest actual view. Use supplied room labels and verified property details.

Polish the details

Keep room connections and proportions truthful; do not generate missing rooms or views.
