A Build Homes × Motion Dept. partnership concept

David, this is how we do it for every project.

One selected home each week. Photoreal marketing stills first, then a 60-second cinematic architectural film — built as a consistent visual system for Build Homes.

01 / The pilot

You’ve already seen the idea in motion.

The Few Bridge film is the proof of concept. Your question was simple: “How can we do this for every project we create?” The proposal below turns that into a repeatable weekly system.

02 / What you receive

One design becomes a complete marketing package.

Build Homes already creates the architecture, blueprints, renderings and 3D presentation material. Motion Dept. adds the photoreal and cinematic marketing layer.

01
Send the source project.Existing renders, model views, plans and material references — whatever is available.
02
We create the photoreal still set.Selected views are refined into marketing images while the architecture remains the source of truth.
03
The approved visual world becomes the film.We direct varied camera movement, pacing and sound into one 60-second architectural film.

Built around the way Build Homes already works.

The stills and film can move straight into plan pages, Instagram, advertising, presentations and client-facing marketing. The goal is to make the catalogue feel more tangible without asking Build Homes to change its design workflow.

03 / Fidelity

From source render to photographic treatment.

Motion Dept. is not there to redesign the architecture. The source design stays in control; the treatment focuses on light, material depth, landscape, atmosphere and photographic balance.

04 / The stills

The images have value before the film even starts.

Use them on product pages, social posts, presentations, brochures, ads and campaign creative — independently of the film.

05 / Partnership

Start with a three-month catalogue pilot.

Rather than asking Build Homes to commit to the entire catalogue upfront, we start with a defined three-month rollout: one selected catalogue home each week, four per month.

After the pilot If the workflow is working for both sides, we agree the next catalogue phase before month four. If not, the pilot simply concludes — there is no 10-month lock-in upfront.

07 / Why Motion Dept.
AI is part of the pipeline. Architectural experience is what directs it.

Motion Dept. is led by an architectural draughtsman with about ten years of hands-on residential design experience. That background is why rooflines, openings, materials, proportion and architectural fidelity are treated as non-negotiable.

08 / FAQ

Questions about the partnership.

The practical details that matter before we begin.

Is this just AI-generated content?

No. AI is part of the production pipeline, but the work is architecturally directed. Build Homes’ source design remains the reference while Motion Dept. supervises the realism, continuity and final film language.

What does Build Homes need to send for each project?

The best available source package: existing renders or screenshots, useful plans, model views where available, material references and any details that must not change.

What does each catalogue project include?

A curated photoreal still set, one approximately 60-second cinematic architectural film delivered in 16:9 Full HD, one 15-second 9:16 social teaser and one consolidated creative revision round.

How does the three-month pilot work?

Four catalogue projects are reserved each month for three months. The monthly $6,000 invoice is paid in advance so the weekly production capacity is protected. Before month four, we review the workflow and decide together whether to continue into the next catalogue phase.

How are revisions and architectural corrections handled?

One consolidated creative revision round is included. If Motion Dept. has accidentally changed an architectural detail from the supplied source, correcting that fidelity issue does not consume the creative revision round. New client-driven design changes or a new creative direction may be quoted separately.

Can Build Homes use the finished content commercially?

Yes. Final paid deliverables are intended for Build Homes’ normal marketing use across the website, social media, advertising, email, presentations, brochures and other client-facing sales material.

Can active custom-client projects be included too?

Yes. While the catalogue partnership is active, eligible bespoke client projects can be commissioned at the $2,750 partner rate. Those projects are additional to the four monthly catalogue slots.

What if we need 4K or a full vertical version?

The standard package already includes a 16:9 Full HD film plus a short 9:16 teaser. A 4K delivery master is +$250, a dedicated full 60-second 9:16 edition is +$400, or both optional upgrades are +$550 on the same project.
