## What it does

The camera starts at the edge of the room and glides forward on a steady path, turning gently as it goes. Furniture slides past in the foreground and the windows open up ahead, so the clip ends deeper in the space than the photo began.

## From our test

We used a bright living room with a gray sofa and tall windows, and by the fourth frame the camera has moved past the coffee table toward the glass. It took about 2 minutes.

## Tips for the best photo

- Use a wide shot taken from a doorway or corner so there is space for the camera to travel.
- Turn on lamps and open curtains before shooting, since the walkthrough keeps the light from your photo.
- Clear clutter from the floor, as anything in the path becomes the first thing the camera passes.

## Ideas for using it

- A real estate agent adding motion to a listing that only has still photos.
- A short-term rental host showing guests the living space in a booking listing.
- An interior designer posting a before and after reveal of a finished room.

## FAQ

### Will the effect change my furniture or layout?

It is directed to keep the room as it is in the photo. Check details like art and lamps before using the clip in a listing.

### Can I use a photo of a small room?

Yes, though wide photos give the camera more to reveal. Very tight shots leave little room to move.

### Do I need to write a prompt for Room Tour?

No. Room Tour is a ready-made effect: upload a photo and press Generate. The directions for the motion, camera and lighting are already built in.

### How long is the Room Tour video, and how long does it take?

Every effect makes a 5 second HD video that matches the shape of your photo, portrait or landscape. Most are ready in one to three minutes, and you can leave the page while it renders.

### Does the video have sound?

Yes. Each clip comes with matching ambient sound effects. It does not add music, so you can lay your own track over it in any editor.

### Can I use Room Tour on any property?

Interior and exterior photos of homes, apartments, rentals and commercial spaces all work. Wide, bright, level photos give the smoothest camera move.
