How to Film a Real Estate Videos // Canon EOS R5 C (8k 60fps RAW)

[@trimotionmedia5487]

If you're a real estate photographer, you're most likely not going to be shooting a property at sunrise, daytime, and sunset. But for an amazing home like this and a big budget...GET ERRR DONE! Footage looks awesome!

[@jeremybfilms]

Amen, also a lot of agents don't have the budget (or so they claim) to afford the time to have you come back, so I shoot broad daylight at 1pm usually.

[@johnnyfive-bc]

if you show up 30 minutes before Sunset and stay for 1 hour or 1.5 hours you can basically get everything.

[@trimotionmedia5487]

@@johnnyfive-bc That fully depends on the property and what the clients want. Most of the time, a REP is going to be capturing photography as well. Maybe a 3D tour or floorplan too. And some properties call for (and agents also desire) some blue skies and more sun on certain parts of the house. So I'd also recommend either starting 1.5-2 hours prior to sunset and maybe do a split shoot where you do a 10am shoot, then come back 30 minutes prior to sunset :) Charge accordingly

Wish there was an option to click the like button more than once, simply because of all the technical info in this video. To me personally, this type of video from a real assignment for a paying client, COMBINED with all the camera settings and technical info, is way better than a normal review where just specs and numbers are compared. Because it's when you're out there doing real stuff that you encounter things and situations you cannot prepare for. More stuff like this! 👍

Don’t hesitate, just get the entire course. Absolutely way more worth than what they charge!!

[@RussFedorov]

I got the course about 3 years ago and it's absolutely worth it. I didn't even know there was a market for real estate videos until I took the course and now I do real estate full time. Thank you Parker.

[@UonlineTV]

I absolutely love those shots! As a real estate video creative, one aspect that consistently drives me crazy is perfecting the appearance of the bed sheets, pillows, and other minute details. They tend to make me go a little crazy!

[@ChuckRiseUp]

I was a die hard Sony fan, but recently switch to Canon and bought the R5C. Couldn't be more happier with this hybrid camera! As a photographer AND videographer, I didn't want to bring two cameras when shooting. I love doing both on set and this is the answer in my opinion. And with the new firmware update, it is quite fast now to switch between modes (photo/video). Better AF, new digital teleconversion, better battery life, etc.

[@MrWiseinheart]

Must have sucked to change all your glass as well 😢 spendy.

[@NoJuliet]

I shoot with an R5 C for most of my shoots- hands down one of the best cameras I've ever used. Highly recommended for those of you who want to get a camera you will never need to replace 😏👌🏻

[@medienmanufakturdusseldorf8709]

I am part of the full FTF Course since I started my business and never ever regret it! Those kind of videos give so much value even without the course and I couldnt beliefe that the course itself can add any more value than the free videos have already, but I was wrong - this video coaching and the full FTF course was the best choice I ever made and till today I am more than happy about it, specially because the lifelong membership gives me access to all new contents...and it is soo much and getting still better and better! :) So straight from my heart thank you for your great work and all starting filmmakers, go for it :)

[@Premier-Media-Group]

2 months for a new video? You bet I'm waiting, cuz I'm here for it every time. These videos (and FTF) are legit the best coaching and tips for anyone wanting to improve their work - both professionally or as a serious hobbyist. Also, St George is an amazing place...

[@SoJesusChristMusic]

[@richlonardophotography]

It's good to see these types of RE videos still exist. Simple push-ins that really let you view the property. The new age seems to be really focusing on speed ramps and 1-second glimpses of items that usually aren't included in the property, along with more speed ramps and spins.

[@movieeyeBartoszKlamra]

Thank you for your video. It helped me what to pay attention to when recording rooms. Indeed, it is always good to wait for a good light. A basic principle that the client does not always understand. You're doing a good job and I look forward to more. Greetings from Poland.

[@MartyPaoletta]

Finally a video with someone using an R5C Rig for Real Estate! I have a similar R5C/RS3Pro rig, with an external monitor and external battery. I use a dummy battery so I can hit trigger record button on the RS3 pro. I agree that moving to 8k 60fps will open more options than XFAVC. But @ 8k raw @ 60fps, the R5C will not work with the dummy battery. So the only way to record is to connect directly to the external battery? Then I have to hit the record button directly on the camera, causing a bit of extra camera shake time.

[@MousyMedias]

Same i have the R5 C and RS3 Pro combo, i shoot at 4K for real estate. Shot many hotels, resorts, restaurants etc. You can use Kondor blue dummy battery to C type, where you can buy FXlion nano one and connect to it where raw 8k 60fps will work.

[@SkyPathProductions]

@@MousyMedias May I ask how you get those jobs? Always have trouble getting the clients.

[@MousyMedias]

@@SkyPathProductions I was doing for a hospitality company which was running hotels n resorts in my country and for a marketing agency. Currently im out of projects and got some pending payments. Searching for other works.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Epic video man! As someone that runs a luxury real estate photo/video business in Houston, this was awesome to watch. I've always been super interested in the R5C, I went with the R6 mark ii and use the RS3 Mini with the 15-35. Minimal lighter setup since I do a lot of volume on a weekly basis. Quality difference is insane, and the edit was great! Personally,I would've loved to see detail shots to break up the wide shots. I zoom in to 35mm and use crop mode to replicate a 50mm look to avoid switching lenses. Epic job dude!

Excellent shoot! Now do one with a poorly lit property and a lower agent budget. What are everyone’s thoughts on only using available light vs adding lights?

[@ChrisFilmPresents]

I feel like Parker should review and use Canon R3 given the fact that he’s coming from 1DX Markii user. Possibly he will love more on R3 and R5 C since the battery life is so different.

[@jasonabadie3340]

Do you have a real-estate video where you film a lower income home with close to no lighting. Now THAT'S a challenge.

Parker certianly made shooting real estate videos look easy! But being a real estate videographer myself, you seriously need to have strong biceps, forearm muscles, quads and stamina to film

[@weztastudio6170]

Why iso is 400 if native for raw is 800?

When doing real estate, do you ever use auto modes? Such as auto white balance or AV instead of M? Or do you adjust all settings on a room-by-room basis? Thanks in advance!

Peter and every videographer i see, all their recordings are perfectly centered. What perfection is that. Is only me because when i recrd im always slightly left and then slightly right etc.Never continious as frame.. Is this something to do on record and needs experience or it is a matter of post processing ? Their hands look so perfectly balanced.

[@rehfeldttw]

[@socialclub8007]

Great Video! I love this hands-on practical guide. Seriously a great resource! A few questions as an R5C shooter. I am curious why you chose to go with 8K instead of the 4K XFAVC. I know you mentioned early in the video that the raw video gives you more flexibility for coloring in post and that the 8K provides more space to punch-in, but several online testers (and in my own experience) have shown the image out of the down-sampled 4K produces a better dynamic range. Do you prefer the image quality of the 8K raw light to the 4K? Is it worth the extra hard drive space? Also, why did you opt to shoot at ISO400 vs. the native 800 for the interiors? Do you think shooting at 400 produces better results than 800 with an ND? In theory, won't the image have less dynamic range and more noise at ISO400? Another thing I noticed was the cross-polarization on the exteriors. I saw it because I was looking for it and because I have dealt with this issue when shooting stills on a Liciea Q2 with a polarizer. There was noticeable cross polarization on that 28mm lens, so at 15mm, there will probably be some issues. Do you feel that the benefits of the polarizer outweigh the color shift? I imagine in different lighting conditions, this would be much more noticeable. Are you shooting C-Log 3 Cinema Gamut? Any input luts? Do you use any denoising software in post? Do you sharpen the image at all? And finally, how much would you charge for shooting this house?

[@waterslug4263]

All great questions I wish he would reply

[@danoskalb]

[@hawaiifreespeechnews]

Can't argue with the quality of these real estate videos but the R5 C and other cinema camera in general lack the vibrance that you would get from a normal profile out of the R3 or Sony dslr camera. Is there a way to color grade it to look like that or will it always have this yellow/red/brown cinematic look?

I have a similar set up. R5C with a Ronin gimbal.

Excellent video! But why shoot so wide open potentially causing focus issues? You are wide anyway (so shallow depth doesn’t buy you anything) - why not close down a bit - boost iso slightly (will never see any image degradation) and never risk focus?

[@jessyjames3548]

Which other canon camera would you recommend? This one is way out of my budget. I film real estate with 6D mark ii, but I feel that I need to improve quality a bit.

[@Myketrocity]

What about shooting in 60 fps and exporting and rending in 24/30? Do you deal with choppy footage from that?

[@luisdiazstudio]

Hey I love the color grade you have on your videos! Is it a LUT that I can get or is it created manually? Please let me know…

[@shreddykrueger9171]

Why is your aputure f2.8? Shouldn't you be closed down at f4-9 to make sure everything is in focus?

[@BoneDog1985]

What is the main reasoning behind f2.8? Most videos are shot in f7.1-11 to keep as much in focus as possible. Also, at f2.8 and auto focus the camera might mess about with focus points. Is it to give a slight blurred look to out the windows and the foreground? I personally like photographing and video at f2.8.

[@CastleLanterraPM]

He's shooting wide open to let the most light into the sensor. Houses can be dark, so this helps to keep native ISO and reduce noise.
