Short videos for general contractors, no filming

One true, general thing your customers ask about, one line each. Each is built in 3D, with a narrator.

1. 1

   How a house is framed

   It shows the order of a build from the footing to the sheathing, which helps a client follow a schedule and see why one stage waits on another.

2. 2

   Why a footing goes below the frost line

   Frost heave is invisible until a crack shows up. Letting the ground freeze under a shallow footing, then showing the deeper one, explains a cost a client might question.

3. 3

   How a header carries the load over a window

   Clients who want a bigger opening ask whether a wall can take it. The short shows where the weight goes, so the conversation starts from the same picture.

4. 4

   How an addition ties into an existing house

   An addition is a big decision. Showing how the new foundation and framing meet the old house answers the first worry: whether the two will move apart.

5. 5

   Why a slab needs control joints

   Owners see the cut lines in a new slab and ask whether they are cracks. A short shows how the joints decide where the concrete cracks instead.

6. 6

   What a sill plate does

   It is the board where the house meets the foundation, and few owners know it is there. Building that joint explains a line on every framing bid.

At today's quote a 45-second 3D Build short costs 450 to 550 credits to make, export included, so the Pro plan covers at least 17 a month. The offer is someone making the videos for you; here you make them from a line.

Each links the body that sets it. Read your short against them before you post.

• Some states require a contractor's license number in all advertising, and California's board counts any electronic transmission as advertising, so add yours to the caption where your state asks. (Contractors State License Board (California))
• Paid or gifted posts about your business must say so under the FTC's Endorsement Guides. (Federal Trade Commission)

• It can't use your own photos or footage yet; every short is built in 3D from your line.
• It doesn't post for you: you export an MP4 with post copy for each app.
• It shows a typical job, never your own work.
• It can't show a client's own plans, lot or house, and a short is never a substitute for drawings, a permit set or an engineer's sign-off.
