What grading entails
Mixed lighting is the enemy of listing video — tungsten halls, daylight windows, LED kitchens in one pan. I balance every shot on scopes, match cameras, then apply a restrained filmic look that flatters without lying about the home.
- White-balance and exposure matching across all cameras
- Filmic signature look with honest skin tones
- Separate trims for MLS, YouTube, and vertical social
- Grading included with films; standalone for your footage
The grade pipeline
01
Balance
Every clip corrected to neutral on scopes — no more orange hallways or blue bathrooms.
02
Match
Gimbal, drone, and detail cameras brought to one baseline so cuts feel invisible.
03
Look
The signature finish: gentle contrast, clean whites, and warmth that reads as welcome.
Common questions
Can you grade footage I shot myself?
Yes — send camera originals (log or standard) and I'll return graded masters plus social trims. Well-exposed footage grades best; ask before sending phone clips.
Will my home's colors stay accurate?
That's the priority. The look adds depth and warmth but wall colors, wood tones, and finishes stay true — verified against the stills.
How long does grading take?
Included with listing films (3-day film turnaround). Standalone grades return in 48 hours with one revision round.
