Client-Based Instructional Video Project

Project Overview

This project transforms a real-world homeowner renovation guide into a structured instructional video series. Using Red Door Construction’s homeowner preparation PDF and web content, I designed and produced an educational experience to help clients better understand how to prepare for a home renovation before construction begins.

The goal was to convert dense written material into clear, engaging, step-by-step learning content for homeowners who may feel overwhelmed during the pre-construction phase.
