Santa Rosa Beach, Fla. (January 21, 2010) – Beach Properties of Florida, a boutique real estate agency with offices in Grayton Beach and WaterColor, announces the unveiling of a seven-part video series showcasing communities in its key 30A markets of Grayton Beach, Rosemary Beach, Seaside, WaterColor, WaterSound, The Retreat and Alys Beach. Beach Properties of Florida teamed up with Shane Reynolds of Color Earth (www.colorearth.tv), also known as “Shane O” from the Travel Channel, to produce the one- to three-minute videos as an informational resource to introduce and educate visitors about the area and the company.

“We felt there was a great need for high quality, informational videos that truly characterize and showcase the beautiful communities of 30A,” explained Price Rainer, co-owner of Beach Properties of Florida. “Each community has its own special personality, from the old Florida charm of Grayton Beach to the Spanish Colonial style and New Urbanist feel of Rosemary Beach. The videos allow prospective guests and homeowners the opportunity to experience a taste of each community via the convenience of the Internet.”

In order to capture all the seasons and beauty of 30A, Reynolds worked extensively over the course of a year to portray the distinctive essence found in each community, even using a helicopter to obtain breathtaking aerial footage that portrays the varied topography of South Walton. With a unique shooting/editing style he developed from the early days producing local TV shows, to various prime time series on the Travel Channel, Reynolds utilized a professional HD camera (Sony EX-1) with a 35mm adapter (Letus) for a film quality picture and even incorporated a dolly for crisp, flowing shots. The ‘video vignettes’ highlight the character of each community from the history to the architecture to the unparalleled amenities. Even the music was locally composed and produced (James Kernick, PB&J Music).

“30A has always been the crown jewel of the Emerald Coast in my mind,” elaborated Reynolds, owner of Color Earth. “Beach Properties of Florida represents the area in an authentic local way, so it was great to focus my lens here at home with a client that shares the same vision.”

The videos can be viewed at HERE (individual community videos are also showcased on the respective community sections of the website) and will be available through various on and offline distribution outlets locally and regionally.


“We are so thrilled with the finished product that Shane delivered,” added John David Sullivan, co-owner of Beach Properties of Florida. “These videos will be a valuable resource for anyone interested in visiting or owning a home in the 30A area for years to come.”
