The footage to gather
- The room before work
- One installation decision
- The finished space from the same angle
Give each moment a little breathing room. Get close enough to show the detail, and keep the original clips handy.
Plan a short spoken script
Write the viewer’s real question as the opening line.
Pair each spoken point with evidence from an available shot; delete claims the footage cannot support.
Close with one relevant action instead of a list of requests.
Review it for home renovators
State which work is shown and avoid implying that every project has the same cost or timescale.
Ask yourself: Does the script sound natural when read aloud over the clips?
Watch it as if you were seeing it for the first time. If something is unclear, try a different cut or add the missing shot.
