Shooting a property home tour video using a smartphone can be a great way to showcase a property for sale or rent. Here are some tips to help you shoot a high-quality property home tour video using a smartphone:

 

  • Plan your shots: Before you start shooting, take a walkthrough of the property and plan which areas you want to showcase in your video. Make sure you have a clear idea of the shots you want to take and the order in which you want to take them.
  • Use a stabilizer: Using a stabilizer, such as a tripod or gimbal, can help keep your shots steady and prevent shaky footage. This is especially important when you’re walking through the property.
  • Use natural lighting: Natural lighting can make your shots look more appealing and showcase the property in the best possible light. Try to shoot during the day and use windows and doors to let in as much natural light as possible.
  • Shoot in landscape mode: Shooting in landscape mode (sideways) will give you a wider field of view and allow you to capture more of the property in each shot. This is especially important when shooting larger spaces like living rooms and bedrooms.
  • Use a microphone: Using an external microphone can help improve the audio quality of your video and make it easier for viewers to hear your commentary. You can find affordable clip-on or wireless microphones that plug into your smartphone’s headphone jack or connect via Bluetooth.
  • Add titles and captions: Adding titles and captions to your video can help guide viewers through the property and highlight important features. You can use a simple video editing app to add these elements after you’ve finished shooting.
  • Edit your video: Once you’ve finished shooting, take some time to edit your video and make any necessary adjustments. You can use a simple video editing app to trim your footage, add music, and make other changes to improve the overall quality of your video.

By following these tips, you can create a professional-looking property home tour video using just your smartphone. Do you know that the entire process of planning to filming to post production a single video can take as long as 20 man hours?
