Drone property videos: five shots to include in your brief

A useful drone property video helps viewers understand the building, its surroundings and how the space works. Watch this guide to five shots worth considering for your marketing brief.

What should a drone property video show?

Include the setting, frontage, access, overall layout and distinctive features. Together, these views can help buyers or tenants understand a property more clearly than a sequence of attractive aerial shots alone.

  • Setting: show the property in relation to its surroundings.
  • Frontage: give viewers a clear view of the building.
  • Access: show the approach, entrance and relevant parking.
  • Layout: explain how buildings and outdoor spaces connect.
  • Distinctive features: prioritise details that matter to the intended audience.

What should you include in the booking brief?

Provide the location, intended audience, priority views and where the finished material will appear. Specify whether you need photographs, raw video or an edited film, and whether delivery should be landscape, vertical or both. The pilot will assess which shots are feasible for the location and conditions.
