Turn the job photos into a short video

Your before and after photos already tell the story. CrewBuddy puts them in order with short captions and your name at the end, as a video you can post.

What you send: Before and after photos added on your private page, the job in a sentence, the town, and anything you want said, like the materials used.
What you send
What you get: A short captioned MP4 that moves from before to after, with your business name and phone on a closing card, saved in your files.

Fictional example.

You: Added 6 photos to the Garcia bath folder. Before-and-after video for my Google profile: full gut, walk-in shower, Marlow tile.
CrewBuddy: Video ready: 7 cards, 28 seconds, short enough for a Google Business Profile video. Before, demo, waterproofing, tile, the finished shower, and your name and number at the end. It’s in the Garcia bath folder.

How it is made

Add the photos on your private page, in the folder for the job, then text a line about the work. CrewBuddy writes a caption for each photo and a closing card with your business name, phone and service area, then renders an MP4 at 1280 by 720, about four seconds a card with soft fades. Photos need to be JPEG or PNG under 8 MB, and a video can have up to 30 cards.

Google’s Business Profile help says videos there can be up to 30 seconds and should be 720p or higher, so a seven-card cut fits. Photos sent in a text are fine for CrewBuddy to look at, but they need to be in your files to go into a video.

Posting it honestly

Use real photos from the job, in the order they happened. You post the video yourself on Google, Facebook, Instagram or Nextdoor; with Website on, CrewBuddy can add it to your site after you approve the new version. Ask the homeowner first, and keep house numbers, cars with plates, family photos and people out of the frame.

The video has captions and no voice, which works for people scrolling with the sound off.

Take the before photos from the same spot you will take the after. Matching angles make the change obvious.

What to keep in mind

We turn Media on with you. Videos have captions and no voice. Ask the homeowner before posting, and leave out house numbers and faces.
