《How To Write A Book》11-Trailers
Advertisement
Trailers are always good presentations to introduce your book to a person. First you have to choose a cast. Who is going to play your main character?
For exemple, in "After" by imaginator1d, the author chose Indiana Evans to play Tessa so in all the trailers I see for that book, Indiana Evans is always there. You can just choose random clips with random people but it is easier if you choose an actor/actress.
You can also choose clips from a film. If you're writing about a Horror/Paranormal story, you can search for clips from Horror Movies. If you're writing an Adeventure story, then you have to search for Adventure movies, etc.
There are a lot of programms to do videos like Windows Movie Maker, Imovie or Sony Pro Vegas. I use Sony Pro Vegas a lot.
Personal advice:
In my opinion I hate when trailers have more than 3/4 minutes. It's called a book trailer and not 'the whole book in a 6-minute video' I just hate it when they're too long. There are 2 reasons why I hate videos with more than 4 minutes:
1-If the video is too long probably it will tell me the whole story.
2-If the video is too long, I'll be too lazy to watch.
Well, don't forget to choose a cast and do a SMALL presentation of your book!

Kidnapping the Gang Leader
I was just minding my own business, painting the walls outside the high school I went to, with spray paint. Okay maybe it's called graffiti, but I don't care. Either way, the cops came at the worst time, and I did what any rational person would do. I ran to the parking lot, broke into the only car in the lot, and sped out of there as fast as I could. Only problem was, I didn't realize there was someone sleeping in the back seat. •Damien Asher is the most feared Gang Leader to the Asher Noir Gang, so when he wakes up to someone driving his car like a madman, he was to kill them. That's until he notices it's a beautiful girl covered in paint, well that and the fact the cops are currently chasing them.
