Introduce yourself outside the front with signage visible. Say your name, location and that you’ll be showing them the amenities of the property.
Show the gym and fitness area, focusing on equipment and workout spaces.
Show the pool. Use a wide angle to capture the best view.
Use a different angle this time. Hold the camera close to the surface of the water for a dramatic shot.
Show the feature. Add more shots if necessary.
Show the spa desk and waiting area.
Slowly scan the spa menu, showing items and prices.

Share your impressions and which amenities you’re most eager to use. Thank the viewer and sign off.
Keep it short...
...then cut it even shorter. Usually under 90 seconds for a serious video; under 30 for a fun one.
Keep it moving
Make sure each shot has a point...and get to it fast! No fluff or filler.
Tell a story
Stories need structure. Make sure you've got a beginning, middle and end.
Know the audience
Family will watch a 2:00 video. Everyone else gets bored after 45 seconds.
Focus on people
Go easy on transitions, filters, etc. The best content is people relating.
Time passages
Use transitions like Dissolve or Dip-to-Black to indicate passage of time
Multiple angles
Using multiple short shots with different angles is better than one longer shot.
Start wide...
...then move closer on subsequent shot for the scene.
