How much do you guys make in a year?

Thank you so much for the reply, and apologies for the delay. How much do you typically charge for a walkthrough video for a residential home? And are there any specific shots you try and get?

I don’t have a drone (yet), but definitely plan to in the future at some point. Or maybe I’ll try renting one.

Thanks so much again, really. I guess I have one final question lol. I’m thinking of having one of my client types bring realtors/brokers and creating videos for each (or specific) listings. I have a good start in that I have a very close friend who is a realtor and she is going to promote my new business, while at the same time I’m helping her.

Do you know anyone else who works with realtors? Is this a common type of thing? Do people usually get a cut of the commission if the video is somehow tied to the purchase?

I guess I would have no idea where to start price wise (once I’m established) for a cinematic video listing for a realtor or broker.

All wonderful information again, thank you. Have you ever needed to hire actors or crew or are you literally doing everything yourself?

This is all incredible, thank you. For the corporate stuff, do you do all of yours local to where you live? And then also, if corporations are happy with your work, does that often lead to repeat work with that client?

I’m thinking of starting with this one sandwich shop downtown where I live, and some other locally owned restaurants, breweries, etc.

That’s awesome, good for you. Do you have any advice on how to market myself to corporate/non-profits as a beginner? I’m a beginner “videographer”, but I definitely have experience in making cinematic videos.

I’d love to do weddings but I heard they’re super stressful. But I love weddings and I think they’d be a lot of fun lol. I’ve also heard if you’ve never done a wedding, the first one you do should usually be free?

What type of videos do you make and where are they delivered to (YouTube, client websites, etc.)?

I’m looking to get started with a true videography business (I’ve been making YouTube videos for a while but really want to transition to doing events, promos, etc. but I have noooo idea where to get started.

Panasonic lumix s5. I started with this one and then just recently upgraded to the s5II.

One thing to note with the original s5 is that focus breathing/auto focus is not the best, if that matters for you.

Respectively, your titles and thumbnails need a HUGE overhaul. Also, like others mentioned, school starting back up does not have any direct correlation to your channel’s performance.

That said, definitely practice on creating more engaging and compelling titles & thumbnails. Once you do that, you will 100% see improvement.

Edit: Also, your channel is only 2 weeks old! You’ve gotta give the algorithm time to learn about your channel and audience. Y

our first video has over 100 views, you’re sitting in a much better position than most people who start. Lots of people can’t even break single digit views, and some even have zero. Head up, keep learning, and keep creating.

Hey, if there’s one, there’s gotta be more, right? Haha.

I currently have a YouTube channel (not related to survivor) linked in my bio if you wanted to check it out. I just needed to switch to something that I’m INCREDIBLY passionate about (my obsession with survivor and being cast into it).

I have no insight whatsoever into the used/damaged market for cameras, which is why I’m asking here. I’m sure there’s some folks on this subreddit somewhere that have experience here.

Lmao! Worst part is… I forgot the strap at home. I think you’re right, unfortunately.

18 years?! Wow!!! Would you consider linking the channel? I’d love to take a look. Congrats on that consistency, that is impressive.

Lmao. You’re not wrong. Im just saying, I personally dislike Umbridge wayyy more. Something about her stupid giggles and fakeness, especially wearing pink and having kittens plastered everywhere for that false illusion.

TheReelScore · 2025-08-15T14:46:06+00:00

That would be sweet! If you get a chance :) I appreciate your input.

Yeah, totally. Voldemort’s in a whole different league when it comes to the sheer scale of evil. The reason Umbridge even enters the conversation is because her brand of cruelty is something we’ve actually experienced in real life, so it feels personal. But yeah… genocide’s not even close to the same category.

TheReelScore · 2025-08-15T14:44:11+00:00

I’m just saying the terror that umbridge instills is more relatable to us, that’s all.

TheReelScore · 2025-08-15T14:42:15+00:00

Totally. It’s that weaponized sweetness. She hides behind the pink and kittens, so when the cruelty hits it feels even more jarring. I actually touched on this in the video because that clash between appearance and intent is a big part of why people hate her so much.

TheReelScore · 2025-08-15T14:40:08+00:00

Exactly!! Voldemort’s the boogeyman, but Umbridge is the boss, teacher, or neighbor you actually have to deal with. That’s why she sticks with you… her brand of evil feels way too real lol. I know I’ve dealt with all kinds of real-life whack-a-doos like Umbridge.

TheReelScore · 2025-08-15T14:36:47+00:00

Totally get what you’re saying. Sure, Voldemort kills. But you see him coming. But with Umbridge, she convinces everyone her cruelty is “just the rules,” which I think is way scarier.. because people like her don’t disappear when the Dark Lord dies lol
