Cinematic Listing Video vs. Essentials Video

What’s the difference?

Cinematic Listing Video

Our cinematic listing videos are a comprehensive approach to telling the ‘story’ of the home. There is a focus on finding the distinct elements that make the space unique and special….the views, the sounds, the overall essence of the home. They include extensive aerial footage, premium movements and transitions between clips and spaces, and twilight footage if requested. Zoom lenses invite in the views, and find vignettes and details that bring the space to life.

When it comes to the edit, we take more time in the technical story-telling as well. Sound design and effects bring out elements that are felt when you are on site at the home. Hear the sounds of the property in addition to seeing the sights.

Essentials/Basic Video

Provides a straightforward overview of the property, highlighting key areas. It gives buyers a clear sense of the home’s layout without extra production elements. Most shots are wide to assist the viewer in maximizing their view of the space. Drone essentials are an optional add-on and include minimal but impactful aerial coverage, video clips that perfectly complement the ground level footage.

Not included in Essentials videos:

• zoomed in shots of fixtures and other details around the home

• premium transitions between clips

• sound design and sounds effects (birds chirping, leaves in the breeze, waves splashing, fire crackling, etc)

• twilight coverage is not an optional add-on

• day to night transitions
