Creative guidelines Engagement:
Create engaging and informative videos showcasing unique aspects of the property and surroundings.
Primary Focus: Video primary focus should be on the property.
Property + amenities: Videos should be of the property and can include the surrounding area. Include 2-3 different areas of the property like:
*Hotel (Exterior landscape, view, interior, lobby, lounge, rooms, suites)
*Amenities (Pools, spas, gyms, dining)

Perspectives: Capture the different aspects of the stay from a variety of angles and distances (such as at eye level, from above, from far away and up close).
Do not capture extreme angles like 360s, inverted angles and refrain from using distorted lens like fisheye. Refrain from using transitions.

Lighting and Color: Use natural sunlight where available. If shooting indoors, rely on environmental lighting. Refrain from adding artificial lighting like spotlights, ring lights, or professional video/camera lighting to change the brightness of space.

People: We love to see candid, authentic travel moments. When shooting, use discretion when with people or self. Always be respectful of people’s privacy.

Identifiable people:
Identifiable people: "Identifiable people" definition means someone who can be identified, directly or indirectly. For this instance, identifiable people are those who we can clearly see their facial features (eyes, ears, nose, mouth, etc).
Selfies: While showing self in video is okay, refrain from including too many selfies. This isn’t a personal reel.
Crowds: Crowd shots are okay, but refrain from focusing on individuals, especially those you do not know. Anonymity is great. Shooting crowds from behind is good.
Minors: Those under the age of 18, should not be included. If a child is part of submitter’s family, by uploading, you are giving your permission for use.

Food: Is a great passion for travelers but avoid showcasing too much food and beverages. Hotel dining rooms are okay but remember the destination/property is the hero. Highlight dining experience during stay, dining atmosphere, seating, location within hotel, popular and cultural foods, room service and in-room food perks. Refrain from tight shots that miss the broader dining experience, refrain from showcasing just food in video, be mindful of alcohol consumption and locations. Creators and all others in the video must be (or appear to be) 21 years of age or older if alcohol is featured. Alcohol in a bar or restaurant is okay, refrain from alcohol in casinos. Avoid promoting overconsumption by limiting alcoholic drinks to 1 per person featured (empty or full).

Activities: Some hotels may offer activities or partner with businesses. Highlight activities found at hotel like yoga, pool/spa, recreational, and hotel partner business and activities like boat tours, cultural tours, etc. Highlight destination nature and culture like hikes, shopping, museums, architecture, history, zoos, etc. Where applicable, incorporate reasonable safety equipment (e.g., helmets) to address the risk of viewer who try and copy what they see. Refrain from animal tours, do not include photos/videos/references to unsafe or illegal activities (i.e., misuse of safety equipment in adventure activities, hiking in dangerous places, skiing out-of-bounds, etc.).

Crafted and Aspirational: Ensure locations are elevated and bring out the best. Avoid spaces that feel too industrial, avoid mess and a too lived-in experience like messy beds or personal items.

Typography and Graphics: While we do not want text, logos, graphics, watermarks, transitions, or emojis, contextual text that includes location and hotel/property name is okay. Examples can include:
Hilton Hotel, Bora Bora Atlanta, Georgia The Anvaya Beach Resort Bali Palm Springs Hotel, Palm Springs, California Venice Beach
Refrain from including claims that are not hotel or destination specific like “best hotel” or “this is the most beautiful hotel”. Or meme/trend language like “this is it”, “this is why you need to visit Iceland”, “60 seconds in Conrad Hotel”, etc.
Fonts okay to use per platform: Instagram - Classic, editor, poster, elegant, literature TikTok - classic, bold, elegance, serif, luxury, script Refrain from using text that is curvy, unique, or handwritten. It is okay to use overlays behind text for legibility. But are limited to neutral colors like white, black. Refrain from including strokes around type. Refrain from skewing type.

Video Quality Video > media should not be:
Low resolution, blurry, or pixelated. Graphically filtered with overlays, borders, or artistic effects.
Too dark or light.
Black and white or sepia.
Sideways, upside down, or otherwise improperly rotated.
No overt filters used.
No still imagery or photographs

Using a Phone to Capture Videos
Clean your lens to avoid unwanted smudges or dust.
Use high quality settings on your phone.
Stage the space (arrange it nicely for display, removing any unwanted items)
Use smooth, steady movements to avoid shaky shots. Use plenty of light (avoid dark or backlit shots)
Keep the phone orientation consistent.
Limit using phone zoom to avoid degrading quality.
