Make a short video walkthrough of your design

Some people understand a space best in motion. Arcvelle Studio exports walkthrough and orbit videos of 6 to 30 seconds at 1080p and 30 frames per second, rendered in your browser on your own device.

How do I make a walkthrough video of a room design?

Open your design in Arcvelle Studio and choose a walkthrough or an orbit video. Set a length between 6 and 30 seconds, pick a lighting preset and colour grade, and export at 1080p, 30 frames per second. The file is MP4 where your browser supports it, otherwise WebM.

What it does

Features

  • Walkthrough or orbit

    A walkthrough moves the camera through the interior; an orbit circles the design to show the whole layout. Choose whichever suits the audience.

  • 6 to 30 seconds

    Short clips suit messages and social posts, while a 30-second clip gives time to show several rooms.

  • 1080p at 30 fps

    Full HD video at 30 frames per second plays smoothly on phones, laptops and presentation screens.

  • MP4 or WebM

    Arcvelle writes MP4 when the browser can encode it and falls back to WebM, which plays in modern browsers.

  • Optional watermark

    Add a watermark to drafts you send for comment, and remove it for the version you publish.

  • Encoded locally

    The video is rendered and encoded on your device, so the design never leaves it and there is no queue.

How to

How to use the make a short video walkthrough of your design

  1. Step 1: Prepare the scene

    Finish the layout, set a lighting preset and colour grade, and check the rooms in walk mode.

  2. Step 2: Choose type and length

    Pick walkthrough or orbit and a duration from 6 to 30 seconds, and decide whether to add a watermark.

  3. Step 3: Export the clip

    Start the export and wait while your device renders each frame; longer clips take longer to finish.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How long can a walkthrough video be?

Videos run from 6 to 30 seconds. For a longer presentation, export several clips of different rooms and join them in a video editor, or share the interactive 3D presentation link instead.

Why did I get a WebM file instead of MP4?

Arcvelle encodes video with your browser's built-in tools. Some browsers can write MP4 and some cannot; when MP4 is not available the video is saved as WebM. Many video tools can convert WebM to MP4 if you need it.

Can I export 4K video?

Not today. Video exports are 1080p at 30 frames per second. Still images, by contrast, can be rendered at 4K (3840 × 2160).

Does video rendering happen in the cloud?

No. Frames are rendered and encoded in your browser on your own computer or tablet. Nothing about the design is uploaded, and producing a video costs nothing.

Do I need to sign up to export videos?

No sign-up is needed. Arcvelle Studio has no accounts at the moment, and video export is included alongside stills and panoramas at no charge.
