Had a look at the video. Good job, they must be very happy with that. As for criticism, you've already mentioned being a bit on the bright side with no ND, so I won't talk about exposure other than to say you could have used a faster shutter since you weren't moving fast enough for jello to be an issue.
As for the filming, you got some nice angles and moves. You probably could have moved a bit faster to add a little energy.
I think your biggest improvements would come in the edit. In my opinion what you did in just under 6 minutes could have been much better done in about 90 seconds. Knowing when enough is enough for each shot is important and if the viewer gets bored, they'll blame the house as being boring.
The key is ALMOST satisfy their curiosity but cut it tight. Never completley satistify them or they will get bored. In other words, always leave them wanting more.
Also, cut around all the little movements and adjustments in the Inspire. If it's going up smoothly for 6 seconds then has a small bump before finishing at 12 seconds, just use the first 6 and get out. Show some variety, you can always use the last 6 seconds somewhere else.
Also, if possible, tell a little story through the images. Fly up the path and through the front door, then cut to the rise outside before a nice dip in the pool.
Doesn't need to be a forensic demonstration of the house in architectural order, sell it on the most exciting aspects.
Maybe also add text supers around making points. DUCTED AIR CON, HEATED POOL and so on.
By the end the viewer won't have any choice to buy the house, even if they don't want one. If your video does that then you've succeeded! |
