CHOOSE THE RIGHT FORMAT

A film, a photo tour
or an interactive model?

Start with what your viewer needs to understand and the material you have. These formats need different source files, checks and production work.

A project film

Use a guided sequence to introduce the work, explain a process or follow progress on site. Supplied footage, approved captions and a clear story form the brief.

The Boat House film is footage supplied by Hayward Smart Architects, presented in this portfolio. It is not a filming commission by Crafters.

See our marketing role for the practice

A photographic room tour

Let viewers choose a room or detail at their own pace. This needs an approved image collection, a clear room sequence or plan, and image credits.

The Old Till House concept connects finished photography to the plan. Its photographs are not a 360° survey.

Explore the photographic views

An interpretive model

Help someone understand how spaces connect. Agree the drawings, level of detail, viewpoints and what must be checked before production.

The Old Till House model is an interpretation for presentation. It is not a measured survey, architect-approved construction model or technical design service.

IS THIS RIGHT FOR YOU?

Animation & video

For a complex service or project story that benefits from a sequence, demonstration or guided explanation.

Discuss animation & video

From storyboard to screen.

Choose the deliverables that support your website and marketing.

01

Story & storyboard

Agree the message, audience, running time and sequence before production.

02

Motion production

Edit supplied footage and combine it with text and graphics for your website or social channels.

03

Delivery formats

Agree website and social formats, captions, stills, licensing and revision allowances.

WHAT WE NEED TO START

Your project brief.

The intended use, reference material, approved messages and any existing footage or drawings. New filming and verified 3D modelling need their own scope.

SCOPE, TIMING & COST

We agree the deliverables, timetable and fee before starting. Advertising spend and any additional production or licensing are identified separately where relevant.

Discuss the scope and budget

BEFORE WE START

Animation & video: useful answers.

Can existing footage become a website or social video?

Yes, where its quality, format and usage permissions suit the brief. A storyboard establishes the message and sequence, then the scope sets out graphics, editing, captions and the versions needed for each channel.

Is an architectural walkthrough the same as a project film?

No. A film is a fixed sequence; a walkthrough lets the visitor explore. Photography, drawings, 3D models and budget determine the appropriate approach. The Old Till House experience demonstrates an interactive concept, rather than a measured architectural model.
