Did you move, or did they?
That one question tells you which of these you want. It is the only technical thing on this page, and you already know the answer for your own clip.
A place, in 3D
You walked or flew around something that stayed still — a street, a shopfront, a building, a room, a stretch of park.
You get a scene people can move through and look at from any angle, as though they were stood there.
£500 + VAT
Start this →A moment, in 4D
You stayed more or less still and something happened in front of you — people, a performance, an opening day, a market at its busiest.
You get the movement replayed as light through the scene. Viewers can shift their angle around it, and it looks its best near the spot you filmed from.
£500 + VAT
Start this →We come and film it
Within 20 miles of Wakefield.
We come to you, film the place or the moment properly ourselves, and build the same thing from it. Paid on the day, once the filming is done.

A thing to look at, or a thing that sells something.
If you make things
- A place you shot that deserves better than a flat video
- A moment worth keeping, with the people in it
- A vertical fly-through of your own scene, for posting
If you run a business
- Your shopfront and the street it sits on
- A venue, a garden centre or grounds people book sight-unseen
- A showroom, so people can walk it before they visit
- A holiday let, its garden and the view
- Before and after a refit, as two scenes side by side
- An embed for your own site, and a QR code for the window
It does not have to be a drone.
Most of what we post is drone footage, so people assume that is the only thing that works. It is not. What matters is how it was filmed, not what it was filmed on.
Drone
The most common one, and what most of our reels are.
Phone
A recent phone is genuinely good enough. Most of what people send is this.
360 camera
Send the raw file rather than a stitched export and we work from that.
Action camera
Fine, as long as it is not on a fast-moving mount.
Something you already shot
Footage from an old job or an old post is fair game, so long as you still have the original file and the right to use it.
Not confident filming it yourself? If you are within 20 miles of Wakefield we will come and film it for you, and build the same thing from it. That is £650 + VAT all in — see below.
£650 + VAT, within 20 miles of Wakefield.
Most footage that fails does so for one of a handful of reasons, and all of them are avoidable if whoever is holding the camera knows them. If you would rather not learn them, we will come to you and film it properly ourselves. This one is paid on the day, once the filming is done — so it works differently from sending us a clip, and the card on the right says exactly how.
What it covers
Us coming to you, filming the place or the moment to the rules on this page, and building the finished scene from it. One place or one room, the same as the £500 product.
What we bring
A phone and a 360 camera. Not a drone — we do not fly one, and we would rather say so than imply otherwise. For most shops, venues and interiors a 360 walk is the better tool anyway.
How far
20 miles of Wakefield, which covers Leeds, Bradford, Huddersfield, Dewsbury, Castleford, Pontefract and Barnsley. Further out, ask us and we will quote the travel honestly.
If it will not work
We will tell you on the day, before filming, if the space cannot be reconstructed — a wall of mirrors or an all-glass frontage, say. You pay nothing in that case and we will not film it.
When you pay
On the day, once the filming is done. Contactless on the spot, or a payment link to your phone. You are paying for the visit and the capture; the finished scene follows within a few days.
Add-ons are the same £150 each. If you want several rooms, each one is its own scene and we will quote for the set before we come out.
Bigger ones we have built.
These are the full-size versions, built for business. They all open in a browser, and they started the same way yours would — with one clip.
Every building measured
A housing society rebuilt from 16 seconds of drone footage, with every building measured from the 3D and a register of who has each floor.
Open it ↗
A site before anyone digs
Bare land rebuilt from one 43-second drone orbit, with the plan, the streets and the services drawn onto the real ground.
Open it ↗
A whole sector, mapped
The same approach across a full sector: plots, phases and what is built against what is still empty.
Open it ↗Four steps, and you only pay at the end.
1. Send us the clip
Free, and no commitment. We look at it properly and tell you honestly whether it will work. If it will not, we say why and what to film instead, and that costs you nothing either.
2. We build it
The reconstruction runs, then a person cleans it up: stray artefacts removed, cropped, oriented, a sensible opening view, colour balanced. Usually a few days.
3. You see it before you pay
We send you a preview you can actually move around in. If you are not happy with it, you do not pay. We do not invoice anything until you have approved it.
4. You get the link and the files
A page you can share immediately, plus the scene file and a viewer you can host yourself if you would rather own it outright.
That is the route if you send us a clip. If we come and film it instead, step one is the visit and you pay on the day once the filming is done — everything after that is the same.
£500 for the scene, £650 if we film it, £150 for anything extra.
One clip, one scene, a page you can share and the files to keep. That is the whole base product, either kind, and the price does not move around.
Colour grade
A proper pass on the look, so it matches the rest of your work.
Extra clean-up
A second pass on stray artefacts, edges and the bits at the margins.
Info pins
Labelled hotspots people can tap for a name, a price or a link.
A guided tour
A camera path through the scene. It can only go where your footage went.
A vertical video
A fly-through of your own scene, cut for posting.
Embed and QR
A snippet for your own site, and a QR code for the counter or the window.
Your branding
Your colours and logo on the page instead of ours.
Other formats
SPZ, or a version sized for a particular viewer. The compressed scene, the raw reconstruction and a viewer page are already included as standard.
Each of those is £150 + VAT. Some things people ask for are bigger than they sound, and a few are not possible at all: a surveyed floor plan, joining several clips into one walk-through, taking the customers out of a busy shop, or filling in a side you did not film. We will say so rather than pretend it is a bolt-on.
Will my footage work?
Worth two minutes. Between a third and a half of the clips people send without reading this need reshooting, and it is almost always one of the same few things. None of it is obvious until somebody tells you.
Outside, or a thing
- Go around it, slowly. A circle or an arc. Anything you do not film will not exist in the result, including the back of things.
- One take, 20 to 60 seconds. No cuts, no zooming, no hyperlapse, no fast turns.
- Daylight, ideally overcast. Flat light reconstructs best. Avoid night, and avoid the brightness changing during the clip.
- Drone: circle at one height. Camera tilted about 30 to 45 degrees down, subject in the middle. A low straight flight past something is the most common way to get a broken result.
- Send the original file. 4K if you have it, 1080p at the least. Not a copy saved back off Instagram.
Inside a room
- Never stand still and turn on the spot. This is the big one, and it is the most common way an interior fails. Turning without moving gives the software nothing to measure depth from.
- Walk the edge of the room. Face across it to the opposite side and step sideways, as if you were walking along the wall.
- Then go round again, higher. Second lap with the phone held up and tilted slightly down.
- Empty it first. No staff, no customers. Lights on, screens off, blinds how you want them.
- Chest height, landscape, wide lens. Use the 0.5× lens if your phone has one, and never zoom. Lock the exposure if you can.
- One room per video, 60 to 120 seconds. Several rooms means several clips, each delivered as its own scene. We will not join them — clips that get stitched together often come out wrong.
What will not reconstruct
- Mirrors. A mirror wall builds a fake room behind the glass. Salons, bars and gyms are the usual casualties.
- Glass cabinets. Jewellers and phone shops are genuinely hard for the same reason.
- Glossy cars. A shiny car breaks the tracking. We have had this fail on our own.
- Small white rooms. Blank walls give nothing to match between frames. Clinics, offices, bathrooms.
- Dim or evening interiors. Noise and motion blur. Daylight or lights fully on.
- Water, and mostly sky. Both come out as noise, and sky gives nothing to measure against.
- AI-generated video. The one we tested never reconstructed. There is no consistent geometry in it to find.
- Moving crowds, for a 3D place. A few people passing is fine and we remove them. A crowd smears. If the crowd is the point, that is the 4D product instead.
Interiors are harder than outdoor scenes, and we would rather say so up front. Tight rooms, mirrors, glass and low light make them fail more often. If you are thinking about your shop, your venue or your let, film one room and send us that before you do the rest. It costs nothing and it saves you an afternoon.
The things people ask us.
What exactly do I get?
A web page with your scene in it, working on a phone and a laptop with nothing to install, and a link you can send to anyone. Plus the files: the compressed scene, the raw reconstruction and a viewer page, so you can host it yourself or take it into other software.
Which of the two do I need?
Ask what was moving. If you moved the camera around something that stayed put, that is the 3D place. If you held still while something happened in front of you, that is the 4D moment. Not sure? Send the clip — that is what the free check is for.
Can you just come and film it?
Yes, if you are within 20 miles of Wakefield — £650 + VAT, which covers the visit, the filming and the finished scene. We bring a phone and a 360 camera rather than a drone. It is the right option for most shops and interiors, because filming to the rules is the single thing that decides whether an interior works, and we would rather do that part ourselves than have you learn it. Outside that radius, ask and we will quote the travel honestly. You pay on the day, once the filming is done, and nothing at all if we get there and tell you the space will not reconstruct.
I want my shop or venue done. Where do I start?
Film one room, or just the front, and send us that before you do the rest. Interiors are harder than outdoor scenes and we would rather show you what comes back from one room than have you spend an afternoon filming the whole place the wrong way. That first check is free, as all of them are. Or skip that entirely and have us come and film it.
What if my footage does not work?
You pay nothing. Roughly a third to a half of footage sent in by people who have not done this before needs reshooting, and for interiors filmed on a phone it is higher still. That is no criticism of anyone — the rules are not obvious until someone tells you. We will tell you, and you can film it again and come back.
Can you measure it, or produce a floor plan?
Not properly, and we would rather say so. If you film something of a known size, such as a standard door, we can give an approximate floor area — a rough figure, not a measurement. Anything you would rely on contractually needs a survey, not a video.
Do I own it?
Yes. Your footage is yours and so is what we make from it. We will ask you to confirm you have the right to the clip, including permission from anyone recognisable in it and any drone permissions where you filmed. We will not publish anything you do not have the rights to.
How long does it take?
Days rather than weeks for a straightforward one. The reconstruction itself is often under an hour of machine time; the rest is a person making it look right. We give you a date when we check your footage, not before.
How do I pay?
Two answers, depending on which route you take. If you send us a clip, we invoice after you have approved the preview and there is nothing to pay before that. If we come and film it, you pay on the day once the filming is done — contactless on the spot or a payment link to your phone. Prices are in pounds and exclude VAT.
Send us a clip and we will tell you honestly.
No payment, no account, no call to book. Send the file and we will come back to you on whether it will work, which of the two it suits, and what it costs.
This page is the small version.
If you need a site, a development or a venue captured properly — us coming out to film it, multiple areas, your branding, points of interest, operational data on top — that is a different job with a different page.
