Services & pricing
That's the short version. Below is the long one — every service laid out with what's actually in it and what it runs, so you can price a project without a single "let's hop on a call" first.
Rendered in Harbinger, NC
The three big ones
Prices below are our real starting points, not teaser numbers. Most projects mix and match — a couple of hero stills, one room staged, maybe a short film for the socials. Tell us the shape of yours and we'll build the exact package around it.
A single frame that does the heavy lifting — the one you pin to the boardroom wall or slap on the planning submission. We model it, light it for the right time of day, dress the scene, and set the camera where your building looks like itself.
Ninety seconds of your building before there's a building to film. We storyboard the route first so you sign off on where the camera goes, then animate the flythrough with real light, moving foliage and a licensed track. The one clients replay on their phones.
Empty listing to sold-looking in a few days. We drop real furniture, real rugs and real light into a bare interior — no cardboard-cutout couches — so buyers picture themselves in the room instead of squinting at drywall. Great for pre-sales and spec units.
Bolt-ons
Context
$480
Your building dropped into the real site from above — water, roads, neighbours and all. Perfect for masterplans and "where does it sit" questions.
Options
$220
Same camera, different light. Grab a warm dusk cut of a shot you already love — the mood swing does a lot of work in a deck.
Deck
$140
Your renders sized and cropped for slides, plus the layered source file so your designer can push it further later.
Speed
+35%
Deadline breathing down your neck? We'll bump you to the front of the queue when the schedule allows — we'll tell you straight if it doesn't.
How a job runs
CAD, SketchUp, Revit, even napkin sketches. A quick 20-minute call sorts out anything missing — no lengthy brief form.
You get a grey-box preview of every camera. We nail the framing before we spend hours on the pretty pixels.
Materials, lighting, staging, the works. Two revision rounds baked in on packages, so it lands where you want it.
Print-ready stills, a 4K walkthrough, layered sources — sized for the deck and the site hoarding both.
Price your project
Ballpark's fine — how many views, whether you want a film, when it's due. We'll come back within one working day with a real number and a timeline, not a "we'll be in touch." Rather talk? Call (252) 255-5800.
Before you ask
Whatever you've got, honestly. A CAD set, a SketchUp or Revit model, a PDF of plans and elevations — even hand sketches with dimensions will do. The more you send, the faster we start. If something's missing we'll flag it on the 20-minute kickoff call rather than bounce a form back at you.
Stills usually land in 5–8 working days, staging in 3–5, and walkthrough films in about three weeks. You'll see a grey-box preview well before any of that, so nothing's a black box. If your deadline's tight, tell us on the call and we'll say straight up whether the rush lane can make it.
That's what the revision rounds are for — one on a single still, two on the packages and films. Because you approve the camera angles at the grey-box stage, the fixes are almost always small (a warmer light, different furniture, tweak the planting) rather than a start-over. Extra rounds beyond that are billed by the hour and we'll tell you before the clock starts.
Absolutely. We're based on the water in Harbinger, NC, but the whole job runs over email, calls and shared previews — we've never needed to be in the same room as a project. If you happen to be local and want to talk it through at the studio, the coffee's on us.
Yep — the final files are yours to use across pitches, planning submissions, listings, hoardings and socials, no per-use fees. You get the layered source too, not just a flat JPEG, so your designer can keep pushing it later. We just ask to keep a copy for our own portfolio unless the project's under wraps.
