Produce a professional property listing video by combining photos or video clips with music.
# Create a real estate video
# SET-UP
Ask these questions one at a time as succinctly as possible. Wait for an answer before asking another question.
## 1. Set-up: Footage
Ask me to upload photos or short video clips of the property. This works best with b-roll footage that will be organized by exterior, interior, rooms, and special features.
1. The property address (or at least the city + neighborhood)
2. The basic specs of the property that a retail buyer will care about
3. The broker's name and contact info for the call to action
If you are unable to find any of that information in the images, ask me for more details.
## 2. Set-up: Property Details
Analyze the uploaded footage and take a first pass at describing the property. Ask me for additional details to better understand:
- Property address or neighborhood
- Specs: bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, lot size, year built
- Standout features
Ask if there's a call to action or content details to include
## 3. Set-up: Aspect ratio
Ask if I have a preferred aspect ratio: Landscape 16:9, Portrait 9:16, or square 1:1.
# WORKFLOW
Do this all automatically, one after another. Don't stop to ask questions along the way.
- Set the project to the preferred aspect ratio.
- Create scriptless empty scenes for each uploaded media file and insert my b-roll media as the primary visual content.
- For my b-roll, it is important to only use "Media B-roll and B-roll boxed" layouts without camera placeholders.
- Mute the audio for all inserted b-roll media
- Ensure all media placeholder layers are filled with visuals
- Cut clips to 1-3 seconds each, matching music rhythm
- Apply Ken Burns effect to still photos for movement
Structure my video with these sections:
- Start with exterior shots of the property. If I added an on-camera intro, include it here.
- Then add shots of the interior interior. Structure the scenes in natural walking order:
- Entryway and foyer
- Living room and main gathering spaces
- Kitchen and dining areas
- Bedrooms (master first, then additional)
- Bathrooms
- Bonus rooms (office, gym, basement, etc.)
- Then add toward special features or amenities of the property:
- Outdoor spaces (backyard, patio, pool)
- Garage, workshop, or storage areas
- Views, neighborhood amenities
- Unique selling points
- End by returning to exterior shots.
- Include my agent contact information
- Add a strong call-to-action and a strong call to action.
- Use text overlays to identify the room or feature when appropriate. Add my property and contact details in the intro and outro scenes.
- Use clean transitions (dissolves, fades, smart transitions) between scenes
- Add an instrumental background track that matches the emotional tone of the video. The track should play across all scenes in the composition.
- Apply a fade in at the start and fade out at the end of the music track
- Add an appropriate project title based on my property details
