We just completed our latest video gallery tour of our Scottsdale Gallery. These tours have been a great way to reach out to clients who may not be able to visit the gallery due to current circumstances, and have generated strong sales along with our website and Catalogue.
I wrote a post about how we make these videos that you can see at https://reddotblog.com/covid-19-and-the-art-market-update-march-18-2020-gallery-virtual-tour/
Let Me Know What You Think of the Video Tour!

Price range by artist would be helpful
What a great way to showcase the work in your gallery. Well presented and a nice pace. I particularly enjoyed the chevrolet bench, the Josh Hirt abstractions and the Houston Llew pieces. Cherrie
Great ensemble of artists Jason. The gallery looks wonderful.
Lovely video. Uptempo music and beautiful art to keep viewer’s interest. I like how you thanked the viewer and invited him/her to call or visit the gallery to see more. And also an invitation to buy. Nicely done!
Well done! But no photography art?
Nice layout and presentation of art inside the gallery. Panning motion of the video camera should be slowed and smoothed out a bit.
Your MUSIC with the TOUR was GREAT…. Thanks BEA
Loved it! One suggestion would be to darken the text. I found it hard to see.

Jason, your gallery is awesome! Thank you for sharing this video. Xanadu definitely has a specific look to the artists you represent. I’m transitioning from interior designer into the art scene so I have appreciated your podcasts and blogs. I look forward to learning more from you as 2021 unfolds!
The art seems kitschy and unoriginal— is that what sells in Scottsdale? Disappointed..
Great video Jason! You have a lot of great work there and a wide variety. Hope all is well. Thank you.
Enjoyed this all the way from Australia. Maybe one day I will actually see your gallery in real life.
I took the entire tour and I think there are several aspects of the video that are spot on especially as a commercial gallery. I appreciate and am a fan of your aesthetics and authority. I am collecting video tours of galleries from the West and Southwest. The gallery business is changing: A shrinking footprint of wall and floor space is occurring nationally, forcing a proliferation of artists to seek alternative ways to show and sell. Many of the spaces and mashups have been driven underground but continue to flourish especially in LA. More and more artists and craftspeople take their work directly to the market using smart technology and every manor of platforms on social media. It’s an interesting time to be an artist and gallery owner.
Your gallery has a definite bright personality – thank you for tour.
Great Idea and a wonderful way to introduce people to your gallery; especially now in this difficult time!
Thank you for your video tour, Jason. I really enjoyed seeing the art in Xanadu Gallery, and I find all of your red dot blog posts interesting and helpful.
This video tour displayed a most exciting variety of artwork. I found the music helpful as a mood booster and as a kind of “connector” … creating a continuity that helped bridge from one unique work of art to another. First of all it makes me want to come to your gallery in person. Secondly, the camera never lingered overly long on any one piece, so that either I would need to go back through it if I glanced something that enticed me to buy it, or I would need to pause the video, but still want more information. Thus, I believe the video did exactly what it needed to do: got my attention, inspired me to think of where I could put one or two pieces of the artwork, and meant I would need to get back in touch with the gallery to learn more about prices, sizes, etc. Well done!
I love the variety you have on display, from the whimsical to the thoughtful in so many different styles of art. Beautiful gallery. Thanks for a peek.
I love the idea of a gallery video tour. I like that you, Jason, introduced the tour and welcomed the viewer into the gallery. I don’t know why more galleries don’t implement this idea! Your tour was fun to watch and generated interest in several pieces specifically. I appreciate the diverse types of work Xanadu offers.
Wonderful,, Jason! Inspiring. I’m sending the URL to friends.
Hi Jason. Long time no see. I really liked the video. Haven’t been in Scottsdale for over 4 years but heading out from the east coast in February. Hope to see you then. Annalie Hudson.
PS My website is being updated now. It should be ready in a week or two.
Thank you Jason for sharing some of the great art your Gallery offers. I hope to be out your way this year and look forward to visiting.
The tour is one of the most professional gallery tours I have seen. The quality is very clear and smooth and the lighting makes the environment look very clean and professional. Great job!
It was very calming. That being said, I did not get the feeling of excitement.
Maybe it is your intension to project a relaxing atmosphere. I would recommend adding more colorful and eccentric work and zoom in for detail shots with upbeat funky music to attract additional collectors. The music definitely sets the mood. (Kinda elevatorish) But then again, that’s just my opinion.
I enjoy following your posts. Thank you for all the valuable information.
Enjoyed it. Well done! Nice lighting… and smooth camera work.
Thanks so much for the video tour! Unfortunately, I couldn’t read the artists names at times. Moved too fast and too light. Still a lovely tour of your gallery!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with artists everywhere!!
I am surprised at the number of pieces that each artist has in your gallery.
Liked the pace and music of the tour.
Being a non-objective artist that genre is not well represented.
Thanks, and as always, enjoy life. Jim
