The footage to gather
- The room entrance
- The room in daylight
- The actual breakfast or shared space
Give each moment a little breathing room. Get close enough to show the detail, and keep the original clips handy.
Plan a visual reel
Opening
Open with the most legible action rather than a long title card.
Middle
Frame the important detail for a vertical screen and keep text away from interface overlays.
Ending
Leave the result on screen long enough to understand.
Review it for hotels
Identify the room category and do not imply optional extras are included.
Ask yourself: Does the visual story remain clear with the sound off?
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.
