Hey Andrei. Just want you to know, I've been a TH-cam creator for a long time and recently decided to take videography seriously and start a business outside of YT, part of that is getting started in real estate, and your videos have been an absolute LIFESAVER in teaching me everything I need to know. I recently put out some cold calls, got my first big listing shoot a few days ago, edited the photos and video and my client absolutely LOVED my work, and I attribute a lot of that to the hours upon hours I spent learning from your videos. So THANK YOU so much for all the valuable content you continue to put out, I'm learning and growing my business fast with all your help! I do a lot of video work in the outdoors with tourism organizations and stuff, but man, real estate is a whole new learning process! Anyways, thanks a BUNCH!
My pleasure! Your way of teaching is so down to earth which makes it so easy to learn. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge from years of experience!@@AndreiRestrepo
Are you capturing all the wide shots, then switching lenses (re-balancing the gimbal) and then going back for details? Then arranging the wide and tight clips to make sense in post?
Pretty much. Now using the 15-35 2.8 RF, I can just zoom in to 35mm! If I really need my 50mm 1.4, I will rebalance and shoot the details. And correct for the editing workflow. Thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo Thanks for the reply:) I have a Nikon 14-30 f4. It's not an internal zoom though. Hopefully, it doesn't throw the balance off enough to have to rebalance.
All of those are great, funny enough haven't used any of them! I use an Air2s and before that an Air2 and they are great. For me, I like my drone to be small enough to fit in my bag, but still produce a great image, so that's why I use the air series.
@@AndreiRestrepo I would just be making the video for youtube, not charging anyone anything or offering a service to anyone. Would I still need a license for that?
Sure thing! I get all of my music and sound effects from Epidemic Sound! They have a good variety and constantly updating it and love that they have SFX too. Here's a link to that! bit.ly/3ES7e2N I don't have a course on editing, but I do have a community that you can join to learn more about editing and I have some exclusive videos on there regarding editing too! It's $5/month to join, here's that link too! andreirestrepo.com
Great video as always! I find it challenging when the client asks me to take a video and photos within 2-3h of time, especially when there's some stuff in the living room they don't want me to include, so I have to move them to the bedroom and bring them back in. Getting my zv-e1 for a video has helped me a lot but I'm still overwhelmed every shoot. Any tips to improve my workflow?
Thanks so much! Yup, I hate when they do that. But if that’s the case, they move whatever they need to while I shoot. But I typically knock out photos first, and then run through an do video after. Thanks for watching!
Best way is using composition, creatively! Like using different focal lengths from wide to tight that may or may not show them, hiding them behind trees, shooting away from them, things like that are what I typically do. Thanks for watching!
Hi Andrei, I'm writing to you and following you from Italy. I'm a drone pilot and I'm also approaching the real estate market in my area. Here, there are few real estate agents who correctly use videos to promote properties so the competition is not much but unfortunately I have to fight against the skepticism of real estate agents. I'm trying to make my way and thank you very much for your great videos... See you soon Lorenzo
No, up until this point in my career I've always had the lights on for photo/video. Just recently started experimenting with it for certain types of homes and if it just looks better while on shoot with lights on or off. Plus, now having a camera that handles low light and better color flexibility in editing helps a lot too. How about you? Thanks for watching !
@@AndreiRestrepo typically on, but may experiment with no lights...the homes I shoot typically have the super warm lightbulbs. White balance is such a pain lol

Good video, thank you. Thanks for the honest walk-through and talk-through, much appreciated.
Thanks so much! I have a lot more up to date content on the channel on RE photo & video. Thanks for watching!
Awesome video Andrei. I like these videos of you critiquing your past work as it also helps us as the viewers learn something new.
Thanks so much! Me too, I always love looking back to see what I would do differently now. Thanks for watching!
Do you recommend the DJI Mini 4 pro, Air 3, or Mavic 3 pro for real estate videography/city shots.
All of those are great, funny enough haven't used any of them! I use an Air2s and before that an Air2 and they are great. For me, I like my drone to be small enough to fit in my bag, but still produce a great image, so that's why I use the air series.
@@AndreiRestrepo awesome I am considering getting the DJI air 3. Do you know if I need a license or need to do anything because of the weight?
Yeah, you need a license regardless of the weight to do commercial drone work! Your FAA Part 107 certificate.
@@AndreiRestrepo I would just be making the video for youtube, not charging anyone anything or offering a service to anyone. Would I still need a license for that?
I have questions!!!
1. Where do you get your music assets? I hate the “corporate” style music. I need new stuff!!
2. Do you have a course on editing??
Sure thing! I get all of my music and sound effects from Epidemic Sound! They have a good variety and constantly updating it and love that they have SFX too. Here's a link to that! bit.ly/3ES7e2N

awesome recap man!
Appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Thanks for all of this. Super helpful and great insight🙇
Appreciate it greatly! Thanks for watching!
How do you hide the power lines?

Thanks for sharing, and greetings from TX! Hopefully you make your way in, thanks for watching!
It's been cool to see your work improve so much over the years! Keep it up dude
Thanks, you too! Appreciate it
Are you always a lights off shooter?
No, up until this point in my career I've always had the lights on for photo/video. Just recently started experimenting with it for certain types of homes and if it just looks better while on shoot with lights on or off. Plus, now having a camera that handles low light and better color flexibility in editing helps a lot too. How about you? Thanks for watching !
@@AndreiRestrepo typically on, but may experiment with no lights...the homes I shoot typically have the super warm lightbulbs. White balance is such a pain lol
Haha yup, that's why I started trying it out too! Works best with the newer modern homes that have a lot of natural light
