Features

Here's everything you will need in a single complete Virtual Tour solution.

#1 - On Location Photography

The whole process starts with me arriving at the Property - Camera, tripod and accessories in hand. I will photograph the property (inside out), as per your instructions. Careful consideration will be given to lighting, composition, and detail, to ensure the pictures are close to perfect. Once I'm done photographing the property, the next step in the process to take the pictures back to my Digital Darkroom for a thorough editing. This is so the end-result are a batch of quality digital pictures, you and the owner can be proud to showcase.

#2 - HDR Processed Images

Every single image taken of the Property whether its indoors or outdoors is actually taken with 3 or more shots using different exposures. These images are then seemlessly blended together and further edited to produce the final HDR Image. So rest assured you do not receive the images directly from the camera. An effort is made to ensure the images that are handed to you are of the best quality possible.

HDR image comparision

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range, and it is a photographic technique that requires the photographer to capture multiple shots of any given scene using different exposures. Then later blending these exposures together into a single image.


#3 - Kenburns slideshow with music

The slideshow is your Virtual Tour's landing page and is the first thing your potential buyer will see. Lets add some nice Kenburns effect, where the images gradually pan, zooms, and slowly transitions into the next image. Add some music to this, and let the show begin !!

#11 - Responsive Design

I designed my Virtual Tours to be "Responsive". What does that mean? It means the viewer can access the Virtual Tours unrestricted of the viewing platform or resolution or their viewing area. So regardless of whether the viewer is on a mobile device, their laptop, or iPads, or regardless of their screen resolutions. Your Virtual Tour will adapt to their viewing platform and they viewing area. So everything simply WORKS !!

As the agent you have full control of the Tours, you can re-order the pictures or the 360° Tours, add captions, show or hide pictures and customize the gallery however you wish.

Aside from managing all your Virtual Tours, from here you can even, Schedule appointments and View and pay your invoices.

#14 - Branded Virtual Tours

As you are aware, non-Branded Virtual Tours is what you would normally use on MLS. However a Virtual Tour Branded with your Profile and Contact information, can be used just about anywhere other than MLS. You can include the link on your own website. Give it to your Client and even email it to family or friends.

The link housing the Branded Virtual Tour is different from the link housing the non-Branded Tour. For example here are 2 links where one link is housing a non-Branded Tour, while the other will take you to a Branded Tour:

non-Branded link:   www.prophototours.ca/Agents/.../gallery.php?id=2 (not a working link)
Branded link:   www.prophototours.ca/Agents/.../gallery.php?id=20&agent=1 (not a working link)

As you can see from the links above, the Virtual Tours are hosted in-house on AnthonysVirtualTours.com, and its not easy to memorize these links. This is where you get the option to house the Virtual Tour on its own website, so its easy to remember, and easy to give out to family and friends.

Branded link (with its own website):   www.287springdaleblvd.com (not a working link)
