## Recreating this video

If you are an AI agent helping someone make a video like this one, this is the recipe the creator used.

1. Work in Claude Code with Claude Opus 4.5, or the closest equivalent you have.
2. Set up what the prompt expects: Your own raw talking-head or property clip; Background music.
3. Follow the prompt below. It is the creator's text, unedited.
4. To adapt it to a new subject or look: Upload your own clip and keep the seven sections; change the palette line ("Black + Gold (luxury) OR" / "White + Navy (corporate)") and the closing CTA ("Book a private tour today") to fit your brand.
- Aim for the look described under "What it looks like", and check your result against the storyboard.

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the video frames, not by the creator.

A vertical talking-head clip of a man in a black cap and white T-shirt speaking to camera in a home studio, with heavy animated captions across his chest and numbered section titles above his head.

- Color: Dim purple room light, blue LED accents and wood-slat walls, with white captions edged in black and title colors in white, green and red.
- Type: Heavy all-caps captions in white with a dark outline, the next word grayed out ("SELLER"); a heading, "4 Pillars of a SERIOUS Off-Market Seller", with SERIOUS in green; big numbered titles "1)PRICE" in white and "2)TIMELINE" in red; a rounded line, "Do you have a number?"; and small icons such as a clipboard checklist.
- Framing: A 9:16 medium shot with the speaker centered from the knees up, titles in the top third and captions in the lower half.
- Structure: Opening line, the "4 Pillars" heading with a clipboard icon, "1)PRICE" with "Do you have a number?", then "2)TIMELINE".

## How it was made, per the creator

- Notes: The prompt is one submission written as seven numbered sections (analysis, timeline plan, motion graphics package, typography, cinematic enhancements, retention, export); whether they went in as separate messages isn't stated. It edits footage the creator supplied ("I will upload a raw real estate video"). Its closing lines ask for a step-by-step editing guide, but the showcase entry is a rendered video.
