How to Film a Standout Car Dealership Walk-Around Video at YOUR Lot (We Come to You)

Tired of your inventory videos looking like every other dealership’s shaky phone footage? In 2025, the dealerships winning on Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube are the ones posting clean, energetic, 60-second walk-around videos that actually stop the scroll. At Prism Studios, we bring the studio to YOUR lot in Upland, Riverside, San Bernardino, or anywhere in the Inland Empire — no need to trailer cars to a soundstage. Here’s exactly how we help dealerships create scroll-stopping car videos that sell more vehicles.

Why Professional Walk-Around Videos Move Metal

  • Listings with video get 403% more inquiries (Cox Automotive)

  • 71% of car buyers say video influenced their purchase decision

  • Reels/TikTok walk-arounds average 3–10× more views than static photos

  • Professional audio + lighting = instant credibility (no wind noise, no shadows)

Our Mobile Dealership Video Package – We Bring Everything to You

We roll up to your dealership with a full pro kit and shoot 10–20 vehicles in a single half-day. Here’s what we deliver:

  • Cinematic 4K footage with Sony FX3 cameras

  • Wireless lavalier + shotgun mics so the salesperson sounds crystal-clear

  • Portable LED lighting panels to eliminate harsh midday shadows

  • Gimbal-stabilized walking shots + drone overheads (when permitted)

  • Quick on-site editing for same-day Reels or next-day full YouTube versions

  • Vertical 9:16 for Reels/TikTok + horizontal 16:9 for YouTube & website

  • Branded intros/outros with your logo, phone number, and disclaimer

  • Optional motorcycle studio shoots – yes, we CAN bring bikes into our 600sf cyc stage for ultra-clean content

The Exact Walk-Around Formula We Use (Takes 3–5 Minutes Per Car)

  1. 5-sec attention-grabbing hook (ex: “2023 RAM TRX – 702 horsepower for under $80k!”)

  2. 15-sec exterior walk-around (clean lines, lighting that pops)

  3. 20-sec interior tour (wireless mic + interior LED panels)

  4. 10-sec key features close-ups (wheels, badges, infotainment)

  5. 10-sec price + call-to-action overlay (“Text 909-XXX-XXXX – ask for Mike!”)

Who Books Our Mobile Dealership Shoots?

  • New & used car dealerships (Toyota, Ford, Chevy, Honda, luxury, exotics)

  • Independent lots & buy-here-pay-here

  • Motorcycle & powersports dealers (we shoot bikes in-studio or on-location)

  • Fleet sales managers needing quick inventory videos

  • Salespeople building personal brands on social

Sample Half-Day Shoot (10am–2pm)

  • 10–15 vehicles filmed

  • 30–50 vertical Reels ready to post same week

  • 5–8 full horizontal YouTube walk-arounds

  • All raw footage handed over + edited versions

  • We work around your sales floor – no disruption

Bonus: Motorcycle Dealers – Bring Your Bikes to Our Studio

Unlike cars, motorcycles fit perfectly in our 600sf main stage with the 40-ft white seamless cyc. We create ultra-clean, boutique-style videos with perfect lighting and spinning turntables that make Harleys, Ducatis, and sport bikes look like museum pieces.
