First thought... who is this kid? Secon thought -Who is this talented young woman who knows way more than me and is a natural teacher! GREAT video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you, I appreciate the kind words!

[@vastvisualsbyfarrfilms7227]

That was a great video.. Love that you talk about mistakes.. Most people only want to talk about how good they are.. I learned alot, thanks

[@RiteVisuals]

Glad I could help!

[@mikeski30]

Appreciate the POV! Really shows how you've gotten your technique locked down and nice and efficient.

[@RiteVisuals]

thank you!

[@tusifhussain9429]

It's really nice

[@eddu4361]

Nice and instructive! You never use an x-rite video pasport?

[@RiteVisuals]

Honestly I don't! I find it too much effort to have to do it in each room - in saying that, this video is 2 years old and my style has changed quite dramatically, I now shoot in HLG2 and set my white balance a little bit differently but because I'm using a picture profile it allows me to manipulate the white balance in post so much more!

[@Guillermotortiz]

Wow! I’m so glad I found your channel. You’re doing exactly what I’m training for, I’m going to continue following you. You have a real talent for teaching your craft

j cortes thanks for the kind words! Glad I could help :)

[@jkspinalchoice]

Excellent video! The FPV showing your behind the camera actions help so very much for me to understand how you were getting the shots, and how you needed to move with the gimbal. Great use of speed ramps, and the tips about ISO setting min and max when needing to go to auto really will help me out. And the focus auto than locking in was brilliant. Thank you!! Cheers!!

Fantastic, after 8 years of doing just photography I'm adding video to my bag of tricks this year (once I practice enough to figure out what I'm doing, lol!). Super helpful video!

[@kf5hqedavis242]

Rachel, thank you for sharing. After more than 18 years shooting professionally and taking a 20 yr break, so many things have changed. But I won’t miss filling my film backs. I enjoyed your perspective and a glimpse of the equipment used today. Wish I’d sold the 80k worth of equipment when I switched as it’s not worth much now. Anyway thank you again. Best wishes, Jeff

Hi Rite, What I just watched is 2 years old, are u still in the business? So many good tips, sick how fast u were in settings and so on.

[@thesharpshootersfl]

Good info! Very helpful for new shooters

[@blackbird8837]

and. this. is. how. the. agent. ... speaks. :D great video, though, exactly what I was looking for. One thing I'm playing with for an upcoming real estate job is bringing an additional piece of lighting and a diffuser to illuminate the rooms and some of the applications in close up a bit more. Camera seems to be struggling a bit indoor despite fullframe, probably due to the f4 of the zeiss which is why I'm opting for the tamron 17-28mm 2.8 now (wasn't there when you shot this though).

[@RiteVisuals]

Thanks! I upgraded to the 16-35 GM now, but have also shot a property video with the tamron 17-28 but was really unhappy with it, that 1mm different i found was quite big (surprisingly enough). Bringing a light along is a good idea, it's just something that I can't justify doing - it takes too long to set up, move around the house. I do however offer it as an option to agents and if they wish they can pay more as it's a lot more time consuming.

[@blackbird8837]

@@RiteVisuals I'd do the same thing. If it wouldn't cost 3 times as much :D

[@dansingerphotography3492]

Very helpful thank you for taking the time!

[@SmartHomeLearning]

Hi! As sony doesn’t support 4K 60fps (only 30 FPS), do you shoot in 1080p at 60fps? Is it enough for good quality?

[@RiteVisuals]

Yep 1080p does the trick! If I had the option I would love to have 4k 60fps as everything looks so much crispier, but these videos are so disposable, the property will sell within a few weeks and the video has no purpose anymore. 4K footage also takes longer to edit (unless you have the newest of new macs that can handle it properly) and most agents want 24-36hour turnaround time. I've shot all of my property videos in 1080p and had no complaints about quality! Hope this helps!

[@_gatsby]

EPic! ..I literally subscribed 16 seconds into this video!

[@RiteVisuals]

Appreciate it Jack!

[@kirtg1]

Thanks for the instruction...just looking into this at this timing. A couple of questions if you have a moment. I noticed you don't seem to concerned about the verticals, as in keeping the camera in center of the vertical height of the room. Any reason for this? Second, your vid does not give the viewer a "walk through" sense of the layout of the home, rather more focused on each room look, except for the baby room into the master. Is this an agent choice and your other videos share more of a layout approach? Thanks, Kirt

[@RiteVisuals]

Kirt Germond hello! The camera is generally at hip height as it makes the rooms look grander and nicer, compared to eye heigh which looks awkward. Most times it’s really hard to do a walkthrough from room to room to room because the lighting is so different, one room Is dark and warm the next is bright and cool and so white balance and exposure gets messed up easy. This house has really and lighting. Instances where it is possible to do it, I do it but also the agent preferred me to focus more on the details rather then literally showing walking through corridors etc

[@KOREJK]

[@meone310]

wow rachel, i found your video more informative. sometimes i saw agent is talking behind the scene and he is not actually visible. How do you manage that? do you get him to read script while taking that particular shot or get him to speak all scrips and then add in post production? thanks for this video

[@andrewtran7556]

Appreciate the content, definitely subscribed. Can you describe your transition when the real estate walked from the first room to the next?

[@ozzmanzz]

Some great tips, thanks for sharing.

[@RiteVisuals]

Glad you enjoyed!!

[@nkpenn]

This is really helpful video! Thank you so much for sharing the tips.

[@toddgilligan]

Some pro tips in there! Wouldn’t mind seeing a KZbin story on that wide angel focus setting you were talking about to fix hunting. What focal length are you using most of the time? If I’m being critical, I think the intro is a couple of second to long. But I think the vocals are supreme. When you get to a million subs we should all get a prize for being one of the first 500 subs haha

[@RiteVisuals]

I will definitely touch on that! I'm planning on doing a real estate videography 101 series, is there anything else you'd like me to share?

[@RobinNewbern]

Love your work girl and it is inspiring seeing another chick doing this work. I struggle with finding the right gimbal because I have back issues. I am wondering if this handlebar setup is less stress on your arms and upper body?

[@RiteVisuals]

Robin Newbern hey hey! Yep the dual handle setup works WONDERS for your back pain, highly recommend it!

[@Chris_Originals_Studio]

Hey, you did a good job with the video. I didn't know you could set a max and min for the ISO on cameras. Good to know.

[@ChrisandNancyTravel]

Rachel - thank you for this vid. I missed something about the script. Do you write the script for the agent? or ? again, thank you!

[@andrewkunyev5243]

Hi Rachel. Thank you for the great and very informative video. I am in the process of selecting a wide lens for shooting video. I use Fuji X-T30 camera and my choice is between 9mm F2.8 and 12mm F2.0 primes (13.5mm and 18mm on full frame equivalent). I am leaning towards 12mm because many videographers on internet mention 18mm is most often used. There is also an option of Fuji 10-24mm zoom lens but it is only F4 and as far as I understand a minimum of F2.8 is advisable. May I ask at what focal length do you shoot and which lens would you recommend. Cheers!

[@RiteVisuals]

Hey Andrew, I use the Son 16-35 2.8 G-master lens. for quite some time I used the f4 version of this lens, I like 16mm for real estate. In all honesty it all comes down to how much the lens is going to cost and how much you can afford. When I first started doing real estate I picked up the F4 version because I was doing 1- video per month and then when I got to a point of doing 5+ per month I decided to pick up the f2.8 version because it became a wortwhile investment. It's always handing having 2.8 over f4 especially since a lot of houses can have really dark lighting

[@mahfeww]

What is the dual handle grips you have for your gimbal?? I have the Moza Air 2 and am looking for a dual handle.

[@AerialLensVideo]

Really well done - instructive and helpful -- THANKS! I most appreciate the idea to focus in auto then switch to manual focus. Smart! Two questions, please...What editing software do you use (guessing DaVinci), and have you considered doing a basic "editing video for real estate" intro of some kind? Don't let my "name" fool you -- I am terrified of editing video (have only mastered photo editing). My results thus far are almost always jittery after uploading -- not silky smooth like yours are.

[@RiteVisuals]

Hey! Thanks for all of the kind words, I use premier pro! I was planning on doing a second part being the editing process but this video took so god damn long to put together that I lost interest in doing it, I think I should make one though! It's hard for me to think of exactly what I need to touch on as there are so many aspects to it and some that just come so naturally to me, is there anything in particular you want to know?

[@AerialLensVideo]

@@RiteVisuals That would be great. I'd suggest three general areas - good transitions and clip speed, music and narration (or titles) if used, and best settings for rendering. I know that is a lot, but I am far from mastering those to get an engaging (not boring) result. Thanks again!

hi just wondering what settings you use on the crane as it looks super smooth in that front followcam of the agent

Awesome finished product! I'd never considered using auto ISO but clamping it down to a narrow range. I'm willing to be you can still see it "reacting", but your clever use of a speed ramp right there covered up any exposure inconsistency. Brilliant. Subscribed.

Hello! Yep, I've never shot a real estate video in 4k - purely because my agent wants 1-2 day turn around time and my computer can't handle it that well. I also don't use any picture profiles.

one of the best and direct videos on real state video, LOVED IT!! If I can offer a help, maybe shooting in slog2 or HLG (A7III) will help you a lot with the big light difference between interior and exterior shots and to not blown out the highlights. Other than that, your tips were on point, will definitely be using it on my next shoot

Yep definitely agree with you! I've never been able to nail SLOG2 so I just stay away from it!
