Twitter Chat for Real Estate Video #revideo

Written on February 28, 2012 by Rudy, Chief Educator & Storyteller in Real Estate Videos • 3 Comments

With the interest in real estate video, filmmaking and storytelling spiking, we wanted to create a date, time and location where folks can gather to ask questions and share knowledge.

So starting this Wednesday, February 29th, we’ll be on Twitter at 6-7 pm PST/ 9-10 pm EST talking real estate video under the hashtag #revideo. If you want to join the Twitter chat, simply post your tweets using the hashtag “#revideo” and/or view the #revideo chat on Twitter.

Interesting Stat: According to eMarketer, over 50% of the US population is consuming online video.

What will we talk about?

The floor will be open to all things having to do with real estate video including:

Where to start?
Should I do it myself or hire a filmmaker?
Recent Trends
Best practices
Camera equipment
Storyboarding
and much more……

Future dates can have more focus on a specific subject but for the first one, anything goes!

Written on February 24, 2012 by Rudy, Chief Educator & Storyteller in Events • 1 Comment

Hot on the heels of a couple of great real estate events in New York and San Diego, we’re happy to announce that WellcomeMat will be speaking at the next couple of XPLODE real estate conferences.

Join our Co-Founder, Christian Sterner in Austin, Texas and myself, WellcomeMat Chief Educator Rudy Bachraty in Anaheim, California, as we delve into the hottest real estate filmmaking and storytelling trends that we’re seeing first hand.

Additionally, what is becoming a real crowd favorite, our WellcomeMat filmmakers will be filming a mini-documentary of each event and its attendees. These documentary videos truly capture the essence of each event. It’s great for attendees to reflect on their experience as well as future attendees to see what they can expect if they attend next year.

Xplode speakers include:
Amy Smythe Harris, Christian Sterner, Cindy Carnahan, Dan Stewart, Eric Stegemann, Jared James, Jeff Lobb, Jim Marks, John Gormley, Krisstina Wise, Matt Fagioli, Ohan Antebian and Stephen Pacinelli

Big WellcomeMat Video Webinar Today with Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate #bhgre

Written on February 23, 2012 by Rudy, Chief Educator & Storyteller in Events • 0 Comments

We’re pretty excited to be conducting a real estate video webinar with the entire Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate brand today. We’ll dive into what it takes to create a winning video strategy on both the hyperlocal and national level.

Today’s consumer is not just looking for a home, they are searching for a community with a lifestyle that meets their wants and needs. In my opinion, there is no better way to actually show a home buyer, renter or investor “What it’s like to live here” than with quality filmmaking and storytelling.

As a lifestyle real estate brand, BHGRE is well positioned to tell that story.
