Introduction - My name is Tony Saccaro and I'm originally from Long Island New York. I started my Real Estate Investing Career in 2005 when the market was Hot, Hot, Hot and all you needed to make money was place a sign in the front of a house and BAM, your house was sold. Well it's a different world now and the days of cherry picking is over. I will be teaching you how to advertise your home and bring traffic to your Website through Video.
How to drive traffic to your homes through Video
You first want to invest in a video camera and start Video Taping! Flipcam is low in price and a reliable digital video camera's. You can also use any Cell phone that records video. Some Camera's come with a USB port or wire that down loads pictures directly from your camera to your laptop or desktop. Most Cell Phones that are video capable come with the same USB and makes it simple to download. Once you get your equipment you are ready to shoot your footage.
Simply take out your video camera/Cell phone and point to what you want to video. Your house, self or object your trying to capture. If you are video taping outside be sure you are not around a noisy street or people that are talking as this could interfere with your audio. Also be sure you are not facing the sun as this could cause darkness on your object. Walk around the house and capture key points you want your buyer to see. Your best bet is to have someone with you to hold the camera as you or someone you trust narrator the video and show your audience your master piece. You can also hold the camera yourself and narrate as you walk through the home. When inside its very important your camera either has a light attached or you keep the light on in each room you are videoing. Trust me the first video I did came out dark because I did not remember to turn the lights on. Oh that's right it was bright as can be outside but the light was just not bright enough to capture the picture we wanted so we has to do it over again. Don't make that mistake.
Make sure you capture every room including the baths, point to every aspect you'd like your buyer to see. Once you have captured the video you need to down load it and edit it to perfection. You don't want the video to be longer than 4.5 min as you may boor your audience.
Here is a list of some movie making programs you can use to load and edit your video. I personally like Windows Movie Maker (You should already have it if you're using Windows XP or Vista) This is the Easiest program to work with. It has many different kinds of features to enhance your production. And of course its FREE. Using this software you can download audio if you just created your video with pictures, You can use music to coincide with your pictures and use fade in and fade out to make it more enjoyable. Here a a few others you can use: Cyberlink PowerDirector 7 Deluxe, Unlead VideoStudio 11, Sony Vegas Movie Studio, Pinnacle Studio version 12, MAGIX Movie Edit Pro 14, Adobe Premiere elements 7, Sony Vegas Movie Studio, ROXIO Easy Media, Creator 10, AHEAD SOFTWARE Nero 8, & SERIF MoviePlus 5.
