What it’s for

Where a walkthrough earns its keep


  • Marketing & pre-sales

    Help buyers and tenants feel a property before it’s finished, on listings and social.

  • Approvals & investors

    Walk stakeholders and review boards through the project to win sign-off faster.

  • Design review

    Catch flow, sightline, and lighting issues early, while they’re still easy to change.

Why Sayo Designs

Motion that feels filmed, not generated


  • Cinematic, not robotic

    Considered camera paths and pacing, so the walkthrough feels like a film, not a video-game flythrough.

  • You work with the designer

    Direct communication from storyboard to final cut. No account managers.

  • Built on your renders

    If we’ve already rendered the space, the walkthrough builds straight on that work.

3D walkthrough FAQs


What is a 3D walkthrough?

A 3D walkthrough is an animated video that moves the viewer through a space, the way a camera would, so clients experience the flow, scale, and light of a design before it is built.

What’s the difference between a walkthrough, a flythrough, and a virtual tour?

A walkthrough moves through interiors at eye level. A flythrough is an aerial or sweeping exterior path around a building. A virtual tour is an interactive 360° experience the user controls. We produce walkthroughs and flythroughs as rendered video.

How much does a 3D walkthrough cost?

Walkthroughs start at $599 and are quoted per project. The final price depends on length, the number of spaces, and the level of detail.

How long is a typical walkthrough?

Most walkthroughs run 30 to 60 seconds, which is enough to move through the key spaces without losing the viewer.

How fast can you produce one?

We send a storyboard and first sketches within 4 working days. Final animation rendering takes longer than a still image, so we confirm the delivery timeline with you per project.

What do you need from me to start?

A floor plan or model, your finishes, and a few references. If we have already rendered the space for you, the walkthrough builds directly on that.

What format do I receive?

A high-definition MP4 video, ready for listings, presentations, websites, and social media.

Can I request changes?

Yes. Revision rounds are included so we can adjust the path, pacing, and finishes before the final render.
