The Real Estate Video Workflow: Start-to-Finish Field Guide
My complete start-to-finish workflow for shooting professional real estate listing videos efficiently and consistently.
After years of shooting hundreds of properties and building a real estate media business, I’ve developed a repeatable system for approaching listing videos! From preparing before the shoot to capturing the property, working efficiently on-site, and making sure I leave with everything needed for the final edit.
Inside the 20-page field guide, I break down the actual workflow I use, including:
• Pre-shoot planning and property research
• My shooting order from drone → wides → details
• Exterior and interior camera movements
• How I approach horizontal + vertical deliverables
• Lifestyle and agent coverage
• Camera settings and exposure decisions
• Lenses, gimbal, filters, drone and gear
• Final coverage checks and backup workflow
• Business and efficiency tips learned from hundreds of shoots
Also included: a condensed 2-page On-Site Quick Reference Guide you can keep on your phone and reference while shooting.
This isn't meant to be a rigid shot list. It's the system I use as a foundation so I can spend less time wondering what to shoot next and more time thinking creatively about the property.
