What to film on a space job (painting shot list)
What should a painting crew actually film on a job?
Before/After Carousel
Why it works: Highest trust-per-effort; doubles as PRESENCE landing-page and GBP proof-of-work.
- BEFORE_LOCK - Photo the before from 2-3 fixed angles. Note each spot.
- AFTER_REVEAL - Re-shoot the identical angles after.
The Customer Sees It For The First Time
Why it works: Authentic emotion + social proof; wire to PRESENCE GBP review request (Gap 10).
- PERSONALITY_BEAT - Capture the homeowner's genuine first reaction to the finished work (with consent).
The 'What Did It Look Like Before' Testimonial
Why it works: Highest-trust post format; simultaneously triggers the GBP review request (Gap 10).
- TESTIMONIAL - Crew lead asks 3 SPECIFIC questions (never 'say something nice'): 'What did it look like before?', 'What made you finally call someone?', 'Who would you tell about us?'
Full Job Timelapse
Why it works: Compressed effort = maximum perceived value per second.
- BEFORE_LOCK - Set the phone on a tripod/ledge at a fixed wide angle. Start a timelapse before work begins.
- AFTER_REVEAL - Stop the timelapse only when fully done and cleaned up.
