Cinematic Walkthrough Videos VS. Social Media Reels
Each format supports a different marketing goal.
A walkthrough video is ideal when you need a shareable link for MLS, listing websites or YouTube.
Walkthrough videos :
Filmed horizontally
Longer and more detailed
Designed to cover nearly every area of the property
Delivered with a shareable link
A social media reel is a better choice for building your audience, gaining followers and strengthening your online portfolio.
Reels :
Filmed vertically for mobile viewing
Usually kept under 90 seconds
Focused on the property’s strongest features
Delivered as a downloadable social media file
Agent introductions and drone footage can be added to either format.
A professional social media reel should be filmed vertically from the beginning. Cropping horizontal walkthrough footage into a vertical frame can reduce quality and cut important parts out of the scene.
If a reel is requested after the photographer has already left the property, we may create an alternative using the horizontal walkthrough footage. The video will be rotated for sideways mobile viewing, but it will not provide the same experience as a dedicated vertical reel.
Videography FAQs
-
Only one person may remain at the property during the appointment. However, for the best results, we highly recommend that the property be completely vacant.
The photographer moves continuously throughout the home. People inside the property may result in missed rooms or angles, unwanted reflections, shadows or unusable footage. Wide & Bright is not responsible for these issues when the property is not vacant.
-
Unfortunately, no.
The photographer moves continuously throughout the property, especially when recording walkthrough videos, making it difficult to avoid items being moved between rooms.Appointments are also scheduled according to the property size and services booked. Time spent moving belongings reduces the time available for photography and video, so the property must be fully prepared before the photographer arrives.
-
Cleaning, staging, moving furniture or hiding belongings is not the photographer’s responsibility.
The photographer may adjust minor items when it is necessary and safe to do so, but this is not guaranteed.
-
We photograph properties in most weather conditions. However, even though all drone flights are operated by a licensed drone pilot, flying in rain, snow or strong winds may be unsafe or impossible.
We recommend reviewing the weather forecast before booking, especially when selecting a package that includes drone photography or video.
-
The property gallery and website link normally remain active for approximately 18 months.
-
Condominium amenity photography is available as an add-on and must be requested in advance.
A permit or approval may also be required from the building management, as some condominiums do not allow photography in common areas or amenities.
-
Mechanical and furnace rooms, unfinished basements, standard closets and unfinished garages are not normally photographed unless requested in advance.
Large walk-in closets and upgraded garages may be photographed when appropriate.
-
Depending on our schedule and workload, you may receive your photos the same day.
If not, your complete media package—including photos, video, drone, Matterport, floor plans and any other selected services—will be delivered within 24 hours of the appointment.
-
Our walkthrough videos are professionally edited with licensed music suitable for platforms such as YouTube and Instagram.
