Yikes totally missed the last few comments! Sorry guys …
@Brian – thank you! My videos are mostly instructional – I use a program called Camtasia (and the web cam on my laptop when I need to be on camera) to record, edit and produce my videos. I’ve also recorded with my flip cam and my regular camera on a tripod, you just have to be really good about managing your sound. If you have a decent computer and a flip cam (or similar) the software will typically come with the camera and you can edit and produce with the built-in software. I’ve also used Windows Movie Maker on occasion … good luck to you!
@Brett – I loved it! Great job and good start 🙂 Keep up the good work.
@Jim – thank you. I am rarely on camera though – mostly instructional videos!
Real Estate Videos when marketed correctly can give you a big jump in leads coming into your website. A video can start to appear on search engines within a day or even just an hours away. A very important tip if you decide to create your own video, make it more attractive and convincing.
