Rental Listing — Apartment
A deliberately un-cinematic letting card for a flat going on the market — a fact sheet with a photograph attached, built so a lettings agency can render one video per available unit straight from a property-management feed (Reapit, Alto, Arthur, Goodlord) and repost the set as rents move and dates roll forward. 26 seconds, 1080x1920 (9:16), five hard-cut scenes that alternate graphite and cool white so every cut is also a value flip: the hero photo with the rent inside the first five seconds, a no-photograph numbers frame (beds, baths, floor area, furnishing, neighbourhood) built to be screenshotted, two labelled interiors, an honest money-and-dates frame (deposit, minimum term, council tax and EPC in plain words), and a closing spec ledger over a cyan "Book a viewing" band. Twenty dynamic fields swap per render: address_line, area_line, reference_code, listing_photo_1/2/3, photo_2_label, photo_3_label, rent_amount, rent_period, deposit_line, term_line, bills_line, beds_value, baths_value, size_value, furnishing_value, available_date, agency_name and contact_line — every one of them a column in a property feed, with rent passed preformatted (the template never formats a number) and the three term lines left as free text so a non-UK agency can put anything in them.

Frequently asked questions
How do I customize the Rental Listing — Apartment template?
Open the template in the Renderly editor and replace its 20 customizable fields (such as Listing Photo 1) with your own text, images, or video. Every change previews instantly before you render.
How much does it cost to render this template?
Rendering is credit-based - 1 credit equals 1 minute of 1080p video, billed by the second. You only pay when you export, and credits never expire on the pay-as-you-go plan.
Can I generate this video at scale via the API?
Yes. POST this template's ID and a replacements object to /api/v1/renders - one call per row of data, 20 fields swappable per video. Send the same body to /api/v1/previews first to check it for free. No-code integrations like Zapier work the same way.

Real Estate Listing - Golden Hour 9:16
A 24-second vertical luxury listing film (1080x1920, 30fps) for Instagram Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts, cut to a 110 BPM cinematic house track with five quiet sound effects. It is built on a blue-hour navy ground with cream type, a coral to amber sunset gradient and a teal accent, set in Outfit. Five scenes: a full-bleed hero pulls back on the beat under a tilted JUST LISTED tape, the property name and location; three rooms arrive one per bar as tilted photo cards over coral, amber and teal colour floods; the bedrooms, baths and living area land as three stat cards on a sunset iris; a night view carries the tagline and an amber price band where the price rises out of the band; the end card pairs the agent, the brokerage, a call to action button and the contact line on a cream bottom sheet. Every text holds still once it lands, and every scene wipes in over the last, so no frame is ever empty. 20 fields swap per render: property_name (up to 14 characters, 2 lines), location_label (up to 38), room_1_label, room_2_label and room_3_label (up to 17), bedrooms_value, baths_value and size_value (up to 6, for example 12,500), size_unit (up to 11), tagline (up to about 100 characters), price (up to 12, for example $128,500,000), agent_name (up to 20), brokerage_name (up to 43), cta_label (up to 36), agent_contact (up to 33), and five photos (photo_hero, photo_room_1, photo_room_2, photo_room_3, photo_view). Every photo is a cover crop, so listing photos of any size fit. Fill every text field: an empty value renders placeholder text. The same 20 names are used by the 16:9 version.
Real Estate Listing - Golden Hour 16:9
A 24-second landscape luxury listing film (1920x1080, 30fps) for YouTube, listing portals and websites, cut to a 110 BPM cinematic house track with five quiet sound effects. It is built on a blue-hour navy ground with cream type, a coral to amber sunset gradient and a teal accent, set in Outfit. Five scenes: a full-bleed hero pulls back on the beat under a tilted JUST LISTED tape, the property name and location; three rooms arrive one per bar as tilted photo cards over coral, amber and teal colour floods; the bedrooms, baths and living area land as three stat cards on a sunset iris; a night view carries the tagline and an amber price band where the price rises out of the band; the end card pairs the agent, the brokerage, a call to action button and the contact line on a cream side panel. Every text holds still once it lands, and every scene wipes in over the last, so no frame is ever empty. 20 fields swap per render: property_name (up to 16 characters, 2 lines), location_label (up to 44), room_1_label, room_2_label and room_3_label (up to 14), bedrooms_value and baths_value (up to 8), size_value (up to 9), size_unit (up to 11), tagline (up to about 110 characters), price (up to 19), agent_name (up to 16), brokerage_name (up to 30), cta_label (up to 26), agent_contact (up to 29), and five photos (photo_hero, photo_room_1, photo_room_2, photo_room_3, photo_view). Every photo is a cover crop, so listing photos of any size fit. Fill every text field: an empty value renders placeholder text. The same 20 names are used by the 9:16 version.
Price Just Dropped
The price-cut alert card a listing agent posts the hour a property is repriced — the third card in the "just-sold-status-card" status set, built on the same red rubber-stamp, ink-and-white alternating system. Four scenes in 17s at 1080x1920 (9:16, 30fps): a slammed PRICE DROP stamp over the listing photo, a was/now price pair where the old figure is struck through in red and the new one runs at 196px, three stats framing the reduction as the buyer's arithmetic, and an agent card closing on a phone number that holds still for the final second. Twenty dynamic fields drive it off one CRM row — status_label, status_value, status_value_label, price_was, price_was_label, stat_1/2/3_value, stat_1/2/3_label, property_photo, property_address, property_locality, property_specs, agent_name, agent_title, agent_photo, agent_contact and closing_line — eighteen text swaps plus the property and headshot images. Every field except the two new price_was fields carries the exact name and meaning it has in the founder card, so a brokerage can drive all three cards from the same spreadsheet row.
