Reference for self, when I am at sight shooting my next video. My take outs from this video. Thank you guys 4:50 hold the gimbal horizontally. Smooths out the walking wave effect 3:17 wide sweeping shot 5:00 the pan shot
*Honest moment here:* I started out with a handheld gimbal, the Ronin-S and I had my eureka moment when I purchased a Flycam stabilizer set up. I'd highly recommend buying a Flycam Galaxy Arm and Vest Stabilizer with a Red King stabilizer to use for real estate video walkthroughs. to save your back. Just watching the way he's bending over at 4:29 of this video screams INCOMING BACK PAIN!!!. Even if you're young or have a "strong back", try to avoid subjecting your back to bending over like this. Another benefit of using a Flycam stabilizer arm and vest is that you'll also be able to record longer takes much more comfortable as well. Trust me, I get it, the Zhiyun and Ronin-S are smaller, more compact, but literally, it takes no time to put on the vest, arm, and stabilizer. I also work a hell of a lot faster as well. Another benefit is that I can also film an incredible one take of the entire house (much easier if it's one story). This video is great, not knocking it at all. Just want to share another option can that can save your back and help you work more comfortably. Cheers!
I love this video and I am to five or six views since it was published. I keep coming back to it. I love the idea of a shot list while Becki and Chris show how to actually use a gimball. I have now finally made the plunge purchased the DJI RS3 and will continue to refer to this video as I learn to use it. This video is amazing with so much useful information.
Shot our first real estate shoot right before you guys posted this. And, yeah that fast pan jitter killed us. We were so sick to our stomachs over the footage when we started reviewing the footage. Edited it out anyway, because they needed fast turnaround. Sent it to them, apologized, offered to reshoot at no extra cost. They said they loved it, and that they didn't see what we were talking about. I’m still sick over it, that's why I'm watching this again, but the next one will be better. Thanks for the tips!
This is why I love you guys . You actually talk about stuff us noobs need to hear . There was so much dope AF info in this post !! Thank you both !! It’s appreciated !! Pz
I think if you try Gee-Yun, it would sound most similar to the actual Chinese pronunciation and easiest for English speakers.... Anyways, great tips, I will try apply these when I do my next room renovation report~ thanks, guys!

Probably the most detailed and intuitive 'how to shoot real estate' video I've seen to date! Made me weed out all the other ones I saved in my tutorial playlist because this video was perfect. Thanks so much guys!
Hello Guys, just wanted a huge THANK YOU for making this video, I've just bought Smooth 4 for my iphone, and was eyeing off the Crane for my larger camera, you just convinced me. First time finding your channel and subbed, enjoyed the 'vibe' between you two. Great work, keep it up!
NeverEnding Story is definitely not even in the ballpark as The Princess Bride, but both are great and have their place in pop culture. Great tutorial you two. 🤘
Not sure if anyone else recommended this but if you don’t have a fluid head Tripod you can also attach your gimbal to a normal tripod and use it to get those smooth pans
thanks for clarifying full frame - first question in my mind - great - already have those lenses - guessing does not matter 2.8 as you do not want anything blurred out
i beg you please do a video like this but explaining the settings on the camera as many of us use Sony too and all share the same settings. This video has been really helpful for me , Thanks!
As someone who shoots real estate full time - a gimbal is one hell of a tool (and I've just replaced my Moza Air 2 with the Crane 2S after all the hype!) and I can 100% agree that the ninja walk is essential for any gimbal shot, especially in real estate. Your recommendations of lenses are exactly what I use (2.8f with both). and I always try throw in as much detail shots as I can - I'm always trying to sell what living in the place is like. Put them in the current owners shoes.
I don't know if my camera is good enough for Video. I have a Canon Rebel T7. The video in moderately lit rooms is grainy from 3200 ISO. Getting better at pictures for real estate (still not great) but want to offer video also. SO many different recommendations for gimbals, glide cams, cameras, etc. It's hard to know what to do and it's a lot of money to lay down on something that may not work.
So much valuable information ℹ️ .. yes, i hv also noticed that flashlight mode helos with the bounce.. infact its my favourite mode. And definitely.. editing real estate video request frm u guys.
I don't know how you make gimball shots so smooth ! If I don't have a stabilized sensor, 4k to stabilize in post production, and slowmotion, you can see that I am shaking all the time. Wide angles erase the shaking, but I don't like the proportions / perspectives below 35/50 mm.
Incredible stuff! As someone who pretty much started doing these earlier this year and now pretty much everyday, these tips are spot on. Learned a few too. Thanks guys!
Just found ya! Wonderful grand tips. I’m just in the infancy of starting real estate photography in St. John’s. I enjoyed the tips very helpful. All da best.
What a treat and it's not even Sunday :)! Thanks so much, Becki and Chris for the shot list. That's going to be super handy when I shoot my garden upgrade video. 😁
Literally just bought a Zhiyun gimble for my phone on amazon (today was the first time i've heard about this brand), then i watched a video of yours on the best monitor setup and guess what was the next video on autoplay...HOW TO SHOOT REAL ESTATE VIDEOS WITH THE FKN ZHIYUN CRANE. Now thats some spooky shit :o
Wait a second..... this video was in my recommended and did she just say.... "whattya at by's?" ??? As a born and raised Newfoundlander, I got goosebumps. Great video!
@@BeckiandChris I'm new to the industry, and finding you guys was such a pick-me-up! We have very similar style and taste but I've always been confused on the best way to represent it. Can't wait to binge watch every video you guys have and I hope maybe someday I can meet you both! Goodnight from Corner Brook, NL :)
Great VID Guys! SUBBED! Another Top tip is to do any static (Non walking) gimbal moves with the app / game controller joystick. This will eliminate any shaky Jazz hands and you can set it up in awkward places and still get a smooth move. Don't forget to set the mode to smooth and slow.
Very Very helpful as my architecture office has me doing more and more videos of the finished buildings and struggled to find a video to help figure out what shots are needed. Great video guys. Would love to see videos like this. Thank you.
Soooo happy to see all the videos you are cranking out! Question though, how would you compensate for the light outside. Do you suggest blowing out the light from the windows in order to get better lighting inside?
All I could focus on was how amazingly clean everything looked. No cat hair. What a great life you guys are living 😂 The gimbal looks amazing! The room looks super cozy! Thanks for the tips & the star wipe idea. Definitely doing that from now on 😎
Hahaha thanks so much! I filmed a video yesterday and definitely had to lint roll my hoodie from all the wooly blankets we have around and my shedding blue hair 🤣
Thank you! I use the same gimbal for all of my real estate work. Unfortunately, properties in Japan are reduced to nothing and only shot after the tenant has moved out leaving me with blank walls and empty bland rooms to shoot. Wish I could make videos with nicely done interiors. It would tell such a better story and would be so much more satisfying.
Would you use polarizer filters for real estate shooting? Some lenses like Sigma 14-24mm is so wide that it cannot take a filters in front of the lens and Im thinking if 16-35mm would be better for the use.
You two are awesome 🙏 thank you for all the tips! Coming from just doing realestate drone videography & photography these tips will definitely help me transition into a full service realestate videographer as I invest into more equipment!
I would recommend you avoid the ninja walk if you do not want to induce lower back and knee injuries. By wearing soft shoes with good cushioning and using a heal-toe walk with a straight back and with the gimbal slightly tilted forward you will achieve better results that can be sustained for much longer periods without fatigue.
Great video!! I want to thank you guys for sharing "the real estate moves" (shot list)..lol that gives me a template to start off. I wasnt sure how I was going to make my moves ( I decided to call the shot list "moves" all of a sudden. Feel like we are making a new slow dance..lol) when I do eventually shoot real estate. The tips are very useful and I will definitely watch this over again and practice my new moves!!
You guys are awesome! Thanks for sharing your shot list and all the other great tips along the way!!! Got a RE shoot tonight and definitely going to go through the list! Wooh!
Thanks for this video. I have been doing real estate photography for a while now. Starting next week with one of my first real estate videos. What do you do when shooting in low light conditions? For example a room that has little daylight?
Like the video - thinking about the crane 2 s vs the old ronin S - in the UK the Crane 2s is like £200 more than the Ronin S and I cant seem to justify the price diff.
I’m a realtor and I’d like to get into shooting my own listing videos. Is there a course that you’d recommend? Or should I just watch more UA-cam videos?
Amazing video guys! I've been trying to get into real estate here with no luck so far, but I don't give up! Fortunately I have great tips from you now! Keep well and keep rocking 👊
Great video! I've been doing real estate photography, floorplans and virtual tours for a long time now but looking to offer it all with video too. This was really helpful and the gimbal looks brilliant. Thanks!
Great video guys!! For your room entrance/sweeping shots (4:14) are you locking the gimbal and just rotating yourself, or allowing the gimbal to pan, ooooor, using the joystick to turn the camera as you walk into the room?
Reference for self, when I am at sight shooting my next video. My take outs from this video. Thank you guys
4:50 hold the gimbal horizontally. Smooths out the walking wave effect
3:17 wide sweeping shot
5:00 the pan shot
INCONCEIVABLE!!! EVERYONE loves The Princess Bride!

One of the only channels i actually LOL multiples times per video. Editing is always beyond on point Becki. Killing it!

Yessss amazing! That extra stop of light with the 2.8 is so key when shooting inside!
I like ur vlog style🤘🏻
Watching your videos gets me so inspired and excited for my next shoot! Thank you guys for sharing your expertise!

I was going to sent this video to you lol
Andrei Restrepo too slow :P
So much valuable information ℹ️ .. yes, i hv also noticed that flashlight mode helos with the bounce.. infact its my favourite mode.
And definitely.. editing real estate video request frm u guys.
Your real estate videos by far are the ones I always get SOOOO EXCITED to watch!!! Killer tips "guys"!
Thank you so much!
Your videos are always beautiful and minimal! thanks Great advice btw, saving this video for rewatching!
I don't know how you make gimball shots so smooth !
If I don't have a stabilized sensor, 4k to stabilize in post production, and slowmotion, you can see that I am shaking all the time.
Wide angles erase the shaking, but I don't like the proportions / perspectives below 35/50 mm.
Incredible stuff! As someone who pretty much started doing these earlier this year and now pretty much everyday, these tips are spot on. Learned a few too. Thanks guys!
I think you can apply that shot list theory to most videos!
Just found ya! Wonderful grand tips. I’m just in the infancy of starting real estate photography in St. John’s. I enjoyed the tips very helpful. All da best.
Thank you !! U guys rock! Def turned on Alert for u2. Great down to earth video.
I’m stuck between buying either the crane 2 or the weebill s gimbal for the a7iii with the 16-35 f4. Any advice?
Great video! Love the backdrop. Excited for the new home tour on the blog!
What a treat and it's not even Sunday :)! Thanks so much, Becki and Chris for the shot list. That's going to be super handy when I shoot my garden upgrade video. 😁
Been working on my home studio/office update for some time now, this really helps me know how to shoot it when I'm done. thanks guys :)
What are your camera settings for shooting? FPS, Shutter, F stop.
Thanks for all the great tips on how to take better real estate video with the gimbal.
Nice "AMBIANCE" les amis ! Haha, thanks for that really helpful video !
Keep up the great work 🔥
So much value I watched it twice and took notes.
Thanks for this. Just starting my real estate video career. It’s been a lot of fun so far.
Been remodeling my office and really needed this for an upcoming video plan. You always drop the right videos at the right time!
Y'all are doing so well on the videos.

As a contractor who does all our clients photos and videos this was a great video to watch, thank you!!

Nice presentation. Thanks for sharing valuable knowledge 😊
Super high production month! Love you two!
Very Very helpful as my architecture office has me doing more and more videos of the finished buildings and struggled to find a video to help figure out what shots are needed. Great video guys. Would love to see videos like this. Thank you.
Wicked, glad it’s helpful! That must be awesome to shoot all those finished buildings! Architecture is the best
Great video 👍🏿👍🏿 cant wait to try these with my Crane 3s..!! Does anyone know that song/beat at 7:23
I thank both of you! the video kept me entertained. it is very helpful! I wish you much success.
I needed this video today. You guys and your work/channel inspire me the most!
Thanks for just posting another informative and entertaining video to help other learn 😁
Awesome techniques love the gimbal shots
Soooo happy to see all the videos you are cranking out! Question though, how would you compensate for the light outside. Do you suggest blowing out the light from the windows in order to get better lighting inside?
Thanks! I’ll let my windows blow out if needed unless there is a view that needs to be featured. Shooting log helps!
*compensate dammm auto correct lol!!! Thanks Becki and Chris
Actually such a coincidence, I shot my first real estate video after only shooting photography for real estate gigs!
Alway 11/10 quality tutorials!
Omg no way?! Hope it went amazing!
@@BeckiandChris client liked the video but definitely gonna do some moving in shots with my Ronin M next house!!

Thanks for this video. I have been doing real estate photography for a while now. Starting next week with one of my first real estate videos. What do you do when shooting in low light conditions? For example a room that has little daylight?
Would you advise shooting in a aperture of 1.4 for real estate?
Thank you for your video and did an excellent job explaining . I have been wanting to get into this field.
What frames do you have for your glasses 👓 Becky? I love them!
This gimbal looks like another fantastic tech addition to 2020
It definitely is!
How do you focus? Auto fixed with small aperture? As a bigginer Im struggling with that. Specially when I must use large apertures.
Awesome video as always. But i felt a bit juddering when panning and tte whitebalance was ever so slightly off ( atleast in my stupid phone display ).
Like the video - thinking about the crane 2 s vs the old ronin S - in the UK the Crane 2s is like £200 more than the Ronin S and I cant seem to justify the price diff.

I’m actually filming my first real estate video this weekend so the timing on this video was PERFECT!
Awesome!! Good luck!!
These are amazing tips. I already use a lot of these when i'm filming car dealerships but before/after style shots. Awesome videos once again!
I am wanting to add video to my interiors. I see this video was from a year ago. What gimbal would you recommend for someone starting out?
@@catmaxphoto depends on the camera that you are using and your budget. Heavy cameras require a better gimbal, which in turn cost more money
Great video! I've been doing real estate photography, floorplans and virtual tours for a long time now but looking to offer it all with video too. This was really helpful and the gimbal looks brilliant. Thanks!
Are you shooting specifically at late afternoon to avoid the glaring sun blowing out your exposure?
Great video! Would love a real estate job shadow/bts video at the property! 😎
LOVE YOU GUYS! ALWAYS GREAT VIDS , KEEP IT UP
Great video! Thanks so much for making it!
Great content. Thanks for sharing.
Great video guys!!
For your room entrance/sweeping shots (4:14) are you locking the gimbal and just rotating yourself, or allowing the gimbal to pan, ooooor, using the joystick to turn the camera as you walk into the room?
I am definitely gonna start saving up for a gimbal along with 300 other bits of camera equipment
