In the Auto Detailing sector, professional video content has become essential for standing out in a competitive market. Whether you need promotional material, training content, or brand storytelling, HDR Conversion delivers measurable results that transform how auto detailing professionals communicate with their audience.
Auto detailing video production is driven by the ASMR-adjacent satisfaction of watching a neglected vehicle transformed to showroom condition. Paint correction sequences showing swirl marks disappearing under a polishing machine, ceramic coating application with its hydrophobic water-beading reveal, and interior deep-cleaning extractions are the content pillars. The audience splits between potential customers (who need to see the value of 500-2,000 euro detailing services) and enthusiast viewers (who watch for entertainment and aspiration). The production style emphasizes close-up macro shots, dramatic before/after splits, and satisfying reveal moments. Lighting must be carefully controlled to show paint defects and corrections accurately. Distribution is Instagram-first (the platform drives 60%+ of detailing business leads), followed by YouTube and TikTok. Monthly content budgets run 800-2,500 euros for 8-12 short-form clips plus 1-2 long-form process videos.
Automotive purchases are deeply emotional — 70% of car buyers watch video before visiting a dealership. The challenge is creating content that conveys driving experience, interior quality, and brand prestige through a screen. Each vehicle segment (luxury, sport, electric, commercial) requires a distinct visual approach.
Dealerships compete for local visibility while manufacturers need global campaigns. Test drive videos, virtual showroom tours, and detailing content all serve different stages of the buyer journey. Electric vehicles add new challenges — communicating technology benefits without traditional engine sound.
A luxury car dealership created cinematic walkaround videos for every vehicle in stock. Online inquiries increased 92%, test drive bookings rose 45%, and average time-to-sale decreased by 8 days as customers arrived pre-qualified.
Automotive video accelerates every stage: vehicle walkaround videos increase qualified leads by 65%, test drive videos reduce showroom visits needed by 30%, and lifestyle brand films increase brand consideration by 48%. Dealerships with video-first digital strategies report 35% higher customer lifetime value.
1. Color Analysis: We review all footage, identify exposure/white balance issues, and establish the target look with mood references and LUT exploration.
2. Primary Correction: Exposure normalization, white balance correction, and overall color balance across all shots for consistency.
3. Creative Grade: Scene-by-scene color grading to achieve the desired mood, with custom power windows, secondary corrections, and film emulation.
4. Final QC: Broadcast compliance check (if needed), HDR/SDR delivery, and export of custom LUTs for future use.
HDR conversion transforms your SDR content into HDR10, HDR10+, or Dolby Vision formats — or converts HDR masters down to SDR for legacy displays. We handle the full technical pipeline: color space conversion (Rec.709 to Rec.2020), PQ or HLG transfer function application, MaxCLL/MaxFALL metadata generation, and Dolby Vision XML sidecar creation if required. This service is critical for platform delivery where HDR is expected (Netflix, Apple TV+, YouTube HDR). We work in DaVinci Resolve's HDR grading workspace and deliver verified masters with full QC reports. Turnaround is 2-4 days depending on content length and target format count.
You receive: color-graded master in ProRes/DPX, custom LUT package, before/after comparison frames, HDR and SDR versions, and color-consistent stills for marketing.
Software: DaVinci Resolve Studio, Baselight | Monitoring: FSI DM250, calibrated Rec.709/P3/Rec.2020 | Formats: ACES workflow, CDL, .cube LUT export | HDR: Dolby Vision, HDR10, HLG
