I need to make an explainer video for my 'architecture' firm's design process.

Invideo AI can create a stunning explainer video for an 'architecture' firm's design process, turning your process text into a video with cinematic visuals, 3D render animations, and a professional voice.

An architecture firm's design process is its unique selling proposition, but it's an abstract concept. Invideo AI can translate this process into a compelling video. You can paste your "Our Process" text, and the AI will generate a sophisticated video that combines cinematic stock footage, your own uploaded 3D renders and project photos, and an articulate, "design-focused" AI voiceover. This builds client trust and showcases your firm's expertise.

Why Design Process Videos Matter in 2025

In 2025, high-value clients for architecture firms are won with "trust" and "vision." A beautifully produced video on your website is your best tool for this. It takes a client "behind the curtain," making your firm's process feel transparent, thoughtful, and professional. It's far more effective at communicating your value than a static webpage or PDF.

How Invideo Simplifies Architecture Video Creation

Automated Generation

You provide a script that outlines your design stages (e.g., "Phase 1: Discovery," "Phase 2: Concept & 3D Modeling," "Phase 3: Construction"). The AI will analyze this and find relevant, high-end, cinematic stock footage (e.g., "architect sketching," "team collaborating," "modern building exteriors").

Adaptive Optimization

The AI can generate a voiceover in a "professional," "articulate," or "calmly confident" tone, matching the high-end feel of an architecture firm. It will add clean, minimalist text overlays for each "Phase" of your process, creating a clear, easy-to-follow structure.

Intuitive Refinement Tools

This is the most critical part. You must upload your own portfolio. Upload your best project photos, 3D renders, and walk-through animations. You can then use text commands: "For the 'Concept' scene, use my uploaded '3D-render-park.jpg'," or "For the 'Finished Project' scene, use my 'gallery-interior.mp4' video clip."

Step-by-Step Workflow

Step 1: Prepare Inputs

Write a simple, clear script that breaks down your design process into 3-5 key stages. Gather your best portfolio images: project photos, 3D renders, and any animations.

Step 2: Write the Prompt

Paste your script and upload your key assets. Set a sophisticated tone. Example prompt:

“Create a 2-minute explainer video of our architecture design process. The tone must be professional, elegant, and minimalist. Use a female British voice. Use a mix of cinematic stock footage and my uploaded 3D renders. Add clean, modern text for each process stage.”

Step 3: Generate and Refine

The AI will generate a draft. The refinement is key. Use text commands to replace all generic "finished building" shots with your own beautiful project photos. Add your firm's logo as a watermark in the corner.

Comparison: Traditional Workflow vs. Invideo

| Factor | Traditional Method | Invideo |

| :--- | :--- | :--- |

| Timeline | 3-5 weeks (hiring a film/drone crew, editing) | 1-2 hours (with portfolio refinement) |

| Cost | Extremely high (film crew, drone operator, editor) | Subscription-based |

| Skill Requirement | Videography, high-end video editing | Accessible (requires design/process script) |

| Revisions | Very slow and costly | Fast and text-based |

Expert Tips for Better Results

  • Let Your Work Speak: The AI provides the "structure" (voiceover, text, transitions). Your portfolio provides the "wow." This is a "hybrid" workflow. Rely heavily on uploading your own stunning images and renders.
  • Animate Your Renders: Even if you only have still images (JPEGs) of your renders, the AI can make them dynamic. It will automatically add subtle "pan" and "zoom" (Ken Burns) effects to your photos to make them feel like a video.
  • Use Voice Cloning: For a high-trust, personal brand, use Invideo's Voice Cloning to clone the voice of the principal architect. Having the firm's leader narrate the design process is incredibly powerful.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: Can the AI create 3D renders of my designs?
    • A: No. Invideo AI is a video generator, not a 3D modeling or rendering program. You must create your renders in your own software (e.g., V-Ray, Lumion) and upload the final image or video file.
  • Q: Will it look generic?
    • A: It will only look generic if you only use stock footage. The key is to replace the stock footage with your own unique portfolio. The AI's job is to be your fast, automated video editor.
  • Q: Can I add our firm's branding?
    • A: Yes. Upload your logo to use as a watermark. Use the Brand Kit to set your firm's specific fonts and colors for all on-screen text, ensuring a perfectly branded final video.
