Excellent video Taylor! Thank you 🙏
Love these principles, definitely a great way to think about it rather than a million little nuanced things that can change from listing to listing. Awesome stuff!
Awesome to hear ! Thanks :)
What a killer video! Such a creative approach to real estate videos. Love the simple shots, most of mine are all the same direction too, just nicer and easier to put shots together!
It’s the non creative approach 😆
Thanks! This was a course in itself. Appreciate you.
Wow I really appreciate it!
Awesome video! Using the three act structure is brilliant!
Thanks! Maybe not totally necessary but thought it might help some people think a little different :)
Love this! thank you for doing this. And the music at 6:00 is sweet!!!!!!!
Thanks! Always changing it up 👍👍
Love it definitely deserve the likes and appreciation for this one ❤
Thanks!!
Wow great break down and explanation. I am an agent and there are times I film on my own to highlight a room for my social media this was a great approach I’m gonna use these tips!
So awesome! Go for it 👏👏
You seriously have awesome videos mate and im sure your channel will blow up soon, thanks for sharing
Thanks !!! Glad to connect ✌️
Great Video Taylor!
Thanks Philip!
Thanks!!
Great video! This approach sounds like a great plan
Hope it helps!
Dang it maaaan, spot on. Great how you broke down the acts and how you work through the creative process. It's applicable to shooting period. Thanks for sharing. In camera transitions from Jesse Driftwood that I had sent you a long, long while ago is how I learned some of those things, so this is spot on and I can practice these tips as well.
Thanks! How’s your editing going ??
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo Still got a bit to go, and I kick myself sometimes because I think of different shots in post, but it's a learning process haha. Finished one and will be working on three others sometime later. Gotta do the lawn xD.
Skip to Bonus Stuff on my last one for adorable overload.
Man thank you for this, make life Simple!!
No problem!
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo I got by our photography course, and ran through it, learned a lot. When will the video course be ready?
Great Video - Thank you Man !
Thanks for the comment ! Hope it helps 😄
Make part two or 3 or another video entirely on specifically filming a bedroom please! Thanks! Love your channel!!
Thanks!! What do you want to know about that ?
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo I am just trying to learn everything I can. Obviously you can do shots from behind a counter or walking backwards between the counters or of a sink or stove. But I’m not sure the best camera angles or movements that are best for a bedroom. Sometimes I believe they are so simple, I just go in, pan and leave. Maybe I should include more to make it more interesting but just not sure how. 🤷🏻♀️
@@DecorTours Simple isn’t a bad thing ! If it shows the space it shows the space. Sometimes corner angles , details of bedding, side table vignettes, artwork and stuff like that works well too!
Super helpful to a novice thanks so much.
Good to hear! Thanks for checking out the channel :)
You're the boss, i like that you are humble enough to still answer our comments
That’s what I’m doing this for 👌 Thanks for the support!
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo yes sir, it would be awesome if you start putting your camera settings like on a little corner that way we understand you way of thinking and what you did to tackle that room's exposure! Thanks for the content, never stop!
Basically always 30fps, 1/60 shutter speed, iso 400, and adjust aperture or add variable ND for exposure using the histogram 👌
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo so 30 fps for regular speed and 60 fps for details, gotcha
Yeah! And slowed down in post to 80% for 30fps and 80 or 40% for 60fps footage depending on your creative choice 👌
Another great video. Thanks Taylor. This has really changed my mindset which is exactly what I needed. Cant wait to shoot next video. Are you able to make a video based on camera setting and what to look for while shooting the video? I have a Canon 5DIV. My biggest issue is getting quality footage. Correct exposure, correct white balance, use histogram or not use histogram. That kind of information video would be awesome! Thanks very much. Bryan
Thanks!! Definitely use the Histogram and as flat of a picture profile you can to get the best dynamic range for starters 👍👍👍
Your content is great bro. As a beginner in this space, I can tell already you are gonna be my guy. Thank you for simplicity and education. Your awesome!
@@koachmediagroup awesome!
Great job as usual, thank you. I really enjoy the fact that you keep it relatively simple, interesting and fun to watch. Don’t change!
Do you know how to use Final Cut Pro 10? If so, could you show editing with that instead of Photoshop sometime? Thanks.
Thanks!! Thats the goal 🥳 Thats what I'm using right now for everything! I have a video on the basics you need to know here >>> ua-cam.com/video/h-gP40agPOM/v-deo.html Didn't even know you could edit videos on photoshop! Sounds hard lol
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo Thank you for the link! I don't think you can edit videos on Photoshop, I meant to say Lightroom. Can you edit photos on Final Cut Pro? Thanks for the replies.
@@LeoDodier oh! Nope it’s just for video.
really great vid. hard to find where people show the actual details well/clearly
Thanks!!
Awesome video Taylor!
As far as camera settings ISO, SS, F stop… can you provide some insight as to what you used for these shots?
For sure! My camera's native ISO is 400 so I try to stick to that. But a lot of the time I end up at 800 for interiors. Shutter speed is always 2x the frame rate I'm shooting at so usually I do 30fps and 1/60ss (slowed down to 80% on a 24fps timeline). F Stop.. Usually 2.8-4 for interiors depending on brightness on the wide angle shots and 1.8 for detail shots. But those won't always work depending on how bright the specific room is so to adjust I change the ISO higher for darker rooms or add ND for super bright rooms to make sure the histogram looks good for every shot - typically having an arc in the center or a little bit to the right of the center without too much being overexposed.
Thank you @@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo
Your videos have helped so much. Thx again.
Dude the intro is cool?But when you brought up the 3 act structure.I knew this was gonna be a great video
Haha thanks! Maybe a little bit of a reach but made sense at the time.
Had my first shoot last week and it did not come out well lol (I learned a lot and it was a free vid plus I was working with the crane 3s and that thing is huge.) I wish I would’ve saw this vid before going to go shoot it. Time to go try again.
Best way to learn ! Keep it ip
Hi Taylor, do you recommend a mist filter for real estates shots ? very good tuto, thanks
Not really! They make interior lights look glowy which is cool but probably not what most clients want. Maybe for interior designer shoots or for architecture it’d make more sense
This was such a helpful, well structured breakdown Taylor. Thanks so much for sharing!
I've got my first video shoot today that I'm doing for free and this game plan helps me feel calm about it ✨
Thanks!! So awesome to hear. Hope it goes great :)
Thanks a lot Taylor, I learned a lot from your videos and I'm now very excited to apply your advice on a very imminent project for a client. Cheers 🍻
Thanks for the comment! Let me know how it goes :)
@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo it was much fun, I had the whole premise to myself and I managed to capture every angle I had in my shot list (probably too much footage😅) and even some drone clips for the entrance and the establishing/final shots. Looking forward to editing it 😀 Thanks again 🍻
@ClaudioDesideriFilms that’s the best case scenario!
@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo yes it was, eventually. Before it got completely clear, I had to wait for the cleaners to finish their job but optimised that time by setting the gimbal and tweaking the white balance, according to the room. Also, I had to tide up a few things here and there in the rooms, you know bins out of the way, clearing tables, etc. but it was really nice to have everything freshly and professionally cleaned :)))
Nice!! That's a classic real estate scenario haha keep it up!@@ClaudioDesideriFilms
Another great vid! I’ve been trying to approach shoots with more of a “plan”, your video helps with that. BTW, which model of gimbal are you using? Cheers!
Awesome! Still got the RoninS 👍👍
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo tried and true! 💪🏻
Yep!
AWWWWWW MAN ... I wanted to see your deliverable of this job. Uhkay, uhkay .... I'll wait for it in your next post. Cheers, Chuck (N.E. Florida) : +)
Haha thanks ! ✌️
Thank you, this is such a useful video. Do you mostly shoot in one mode, perhaps follow or lock. I find that's just about all I use on my Weebill S.
Yes! Thanks :) I mostly just use the pan+follow mode with the joystick set to tilt so it’s easy to add in subtle movement. What camera do you shoot with ?
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo Sony A7R111. Don't know of an option to set joystick to tilt on Weebill. Thanks again love your videos. Best.
@@alanabley525 Nice !!! I used to have one and it was great.
Great video. I use a rail 90% of the time, and can be a pain in the ass to work with in spots. What frame rate do you use for this?
So cool! Been wanting to do a slider only video but haven’t had the chance yet. Usually 30fps for wides & 60fps for details
Good advice
Glad it was helpful!
Hey Taylor. Thanks for the tips. I got a question when you are shooting both, video and photos, which one do you start with and why? Thanks
Great question - Depends on lighting ! If it’s mid day it won’t matter much. If it’s evening, might do photos first as priority since the lighting will be better. It can also help to do all the photos & then go through and do video faster since you know the good angles already.
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo Got it! Thanks
I know this is quite an old video but hopefully you see this! How long does it take you to shoot an average 2000sqft home? I'm getting feedback that I'm taking too long and I want to know if I need to be faster or if i need to manage client expectations better. Thanks!
Interesting! Everyone has different expectations so who knows… How long is it taking you??
Typically for video I’d say an hour for standard stuff and maybe 3 including dusk. 5 including lifestyle / acting parts.
Most realtors like to get on with their day and get their clients back in their house so that’s probably all it is. Or they used to work with someone suuuuper fast and not detail oriented.
Learning lots and really liking your work. Thanks.
The link to the Canon 50 detail lens goes to a Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro Lens for Canon.
Would love to know exactly what lens you use for details.
Thanks again.
Ah! Thanks for the heads up, just updated it. This one is the one! So great for portraits and interviews as well - amzn.to/3DUUfKU
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo As we pay an extra 30% in Australia due to our dollar value, this lens is quite expensive. Im looking to use for real estate video. Ive read the USM is noisy and perhaps a problem with interviewing or walk through videos with agent talking? The STM lens is much cheaper and apparently less noisy but a bit slower to focus. Have you got any experience with the STM over the USM or vice versa?
@@tonynicolaci3244 Do you have a Canon Mirrorless ? I would bet the RF 50mm 1.8 is pretty great for this stuff! I have been trying out the RF 16mm 2.8 and the focusing on it is great, so I would imagine the 50 would be pretty similar performance or better since it's 1.8 vs 2.8. You can probably rent one to try it out on Lensrentals.com (link below) to try it out before committing!
The main down sides I've noticed from the 16 is the distortion and compared to my 16-35 2.8 III it has more chromatic abberation. With the 50 I'd imagine distortion isn't really an issue - and my 50 L gets some noticeable aberration anyways so most might notice any difference at f1.8 or f2 for your details >>>

@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo Yes I have the Canon R6. Cheers, thanks for that. Im not sure how rental to delivery to Australia goes, but ill check out the details of that lens.
Great Video!! Thank you for sharing.
Do you shoot all your videos in 4K or does it even matter?
Thanks for the comment! It depends on the client but I’ve never had any issues with 1080p (this video was shot in 1080p)
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo I've always heard that unless you're going blockbuster or the client is throwing the final product up on a huge screen, 1080 works perfectly, especially if you shoot at 4k and down sample to 1080. Would you say that's accurate?
@@thatfishingnoob Probably! Lighting and audio are a lot more important
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo Yeah I believe it. I forgot where I read/watched it but I had such a deeper appreciation for sound design and clean audio now. Stuff can get pretty pricey though!
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo Thank you. Trying to upgrade our video production.
Thanks for this video. So I notice that in the kitchen there is a lot of contrast, which is felt in the video. Wouldn't it have been better to turn on the lights for once?
Yeah ! My camera in this video doesn’t have a ton of dynamic range so that would have helped. I did lights off bc the lights were making the countertop orange so just a creative choice really.
Love that look over @ 5:03 😅
Hahaha yup I am a dork. 🥂
6:36 is this from artlist or am I going to be disappointed this track isn't in my library? Really like funky songs with nice bass lines and this does it for me :)
Everything is from Epidemic Sound! Same
Thanks for this video. I know it’s a year old but quick question, does it make sense, if shooting with a 16-35, if camera allows, switch to APSc at 35mm to get 52.5mm?
No problem! Yup, you can do a TON with one lens. Especially if you have 4k and can crop some too.
Can you send an updated link to your recommendation for the Smartest Compact Gimbal?
Hey! What camera do you have?
I’ve been working on some updated reccomendations here - kit.co/taylorrbrown depending on the size of your camera I’d go with the one on the budget kit (rs3 mini) if it’s smaller and you want to do horizontal and vertical filming often, or the video only kit (rs2 or 3) if it’s a little bit bigger/heavier or you plan to do more complicated moves
Hey Tyler , how do I lock the my Roni gimbal the pan seems to do what it wants ?
Hey! Basically set to pan follow mode and tilt with joystick only and your set. But for more in depth settings check out my gimbal setup video 👍👍👍
Great videos man! I need your help with something. I am new to Real Estate videography and I'd like to know how or what do you do so the window don't look blown out. TÍA!
Hey! Biggest things are: shoot in LOG if you have the option, or HLG or Neutral Picture Profile with contrast turned down if you don’t have LOG. That will get you better dynamic range and smoother highlight roll off. Then use your histogram to make sure bright spots aren’t blown out, or they are at least close enough to look good. Lots of trial and error to get the hang of it though!
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo thanks for the reply! I am using a Canon 90D, I am not sure if this camera has LOG or if it can be added to it. What do you think about shooting a little more underexposed and then bring the highlight up when editing? Is that a good approach or should I just go with proper exposure?
@@juanpablolacayo256 I don't think the 90D it has LOG. So I'd recommend shooting in Neutral Picture Profile with your contrast all the way negative (gives it more of a flat image instead of permanently having contrast baked in) and turn detail + saturation down a little bit so it will look a little smoother. You can add that back in the edit if you want to but its good to have more flexibility when you need it.
For exposure (since you don't have tons of dynamic range) I would just prioritize whatever is the main focus of the shot. Ex: For interiors just worry about the things inside being exposed good instead of worrying about the windows. Might as well get one thing as good as possible instead of both in between. It can also help if you tilt the blinds up a little bit to keep some more texture and the window won't look quite as blown out.
One tip if window views are really important, get your normal shots (exposed for interiors) and then get some extra shots focused on the view only (expose for the view on those shots) so you can still include that in the edit. Those shots come out cool and are effective anyways so it should work fine for now :)
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo Thank you so much! I really appreciate your advice! Thanks for replying back!
Here is what I learned from you on your first comparison between your DJI Ronin S and a cell phone Gimble . This is my iPhone 12 Pro and my OM4
Was there a link?
Thanks Taylor is my first shoot with my OM4. Thanks to your tips and videos I am now hired to shoot ALL the photography and videography of a very busy real estate agent here in Houston. Cheers, Stac.
@@southerncharmphotography4927 So awesome !!
Solid video! safe to say I am doing the right thing
Nice !
Hi Taylor, do you shoot at 60 fps, also what aperture and shutter speed do you typically use for these types of videos? Thanks.
Hey ! It all depends on what I'm wanting to do with the shot (speed) and how much I want to leave in focus to support the purpose of the shot. I always edit on a 23.98fps timeline though. Typically I'll use 24 or 30 fps for wide shots (1/50 or 1/60 shutter speed) and 60fps for details (1/120 shutter speed). Sometimes 60fps for bright rooms or exterior wide shots too, because why not, and it looks best with more light. I cover this more in some of my BTS videos too, but also here is a link to a cheat sheet I put together that might help you out :) - bit.ly/3k6rR09
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo Thank you so much!
Hey Taylor, If you record at 60FPS and you reinterpret the footage to 24FPS it already slowed down... would it be better to just leave it was 60 FPS and slow it down to 40%?
Hey! Great question. Either way will do the same thing,so it’s totally up to you. I do both depending on what I think will be faster for the specific project
24 fps is standard in the cinema world, and can give a more professional feel

I have bought Sony ZV-E10 camera for indoor outdoor Real Estate videography please suggest an ultra wide angle lens also I need a lightweight gimbal what do you do recommend ?
Hey!! Check the links in the video. The second one is what id recommend :) (entry level mirrorless) Let me know how you like it!
@@TaylorBrownPhotoVideo
What is your opinion about Zhiyun Crane M3 with Sony ZV-E10 camera and Samyang 12mm lens for indoor Real Estate videography ?
@@MasoodJamal hey! Honestly I haven’t used the lens or gimbal so I don’t know. If the lens is rectilinear (very low distortion) it’s probably pretty good! Otherwise I’d be careful. Some wide lenses have lots of distortion and will end up making houses look bad. As long as the gimbal weight limit works with your gear most are pretty good though, I just like DJI best from my experience
You make it look easy, but I know it isn’t! 🤙🏼
haha thanks!!
We miss your Great videos Like this bro where are you Now :(
What do you mean?? Im still making & posting vids! lol
I am struggling get the footage Smooth. Any suggestions?
Hey! Totally normal. Try working more on balancing your gimbal , going slower, walking smoother with bent knees. You’ll get it!
Do you video shoot aperture priority mode?
Hey! No, I always do manual everything.
Main reason is just to keep anything from changing during a shot. Could always try it out and see if you like how it works on your camera !
Why are the lights turned off in the kitchen?
The colors looked better that way, the lights were pretty orange
SAYS PART 1, Got links to part 2 etc?
Editing breakdown is in this video. Hope it helps!

Do you shoot all your real estate videos at 60fps?
Mostly just detail shots or if it’s super bright
Why are shooting with the lights off ?
Lights were super orange so it looked a lot better with the white countertops.
What is your website? Nice work
