Overview
Produced for Lanikai Homes Hawaiʻi, this collection of promotional videos highlights completed residential renovations across Oʻahu through cinematic videography and aerial cinematography. Working alongside a professional photographer, I captured both interior and exterior footage while producing short-form promotional edits for the company's website and social media platforms. This project marked my first professional experience creating architectural and real estate media for a commercial client. Beyond documenting completed homes, the project allowed me to apply many of the lighting, composition, and camera movement principles I had developed in Unreal Engine to real-world cinematography.
My Role
Drone Pilot • Videographer • Video Editor • Colorist •Camera Operator
Tools Used
DJI Air 3 • Canon DSLR • Adobe Premiere Pro • Adobe After Effects • Adobe Photoshop • Lightroom

Process / Workflow
Each renovation was filmed alongside a professional photographer, with my primary responsibility focused on capturing cinematic video content for both interior and exterior spaces. Before filming, I worked closely with the client to understand the key design features they wanted to highlight and the intended style for their marketing content. Using a combination of handheld cinematography and aerial drone footage, I emphasized architectural details, lighting, craftsmanship, and spatial flow throughout each property. During post-production, I developed a consistent editing and color grading workflow that allowed multiple projects to be delivered efficiently while maintaining a polished visual style for both social media and web marketing. This experience strengthened my understanding of real-world production workflows and reinforced how many cinematic techniques developed in Unreal Engine—such as composition, camera movement, and lighting—translate directly into live-action filmmaking.
