I made the second two using Royalty Free Images I purchased, Public Domain images, my own photos, and photos my daughter/SIL took. It took forever! If I ever finish the book I'm working on now and get it published, I'll def get my brother to do the trailer. lol~!Lilly Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12085355337721818824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8640495900909855063.post-86797609624491811762012-06-09T00:46:22.808-07:002012-06-09T00:46:22.808-07:00Hi, Calisa.

I made one for my last pubbed book and plan to make one for the upcoming book. Some say they don't help to sell the book, but I've decided I want to have them available anyway. I'm not fond of the voice over, and the ones that are least effective are those in which the visuals and the text whiz by so fast my head spins and I'm left with little or no idea what the book is about.<br />Good luck with yours!Linda Hope Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362087612066936698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8640495900909855063.post-41196010864039840752012-06-08T15:58:22.459-07:002012-06-08T15:58:22.459-07:00Interesting post.

Still, music, sound effects, voice overs, videos and phased in pictures, as well as something for a prospective reader to be energized enough to go and buy a book...wow, the potential reader must have the attention span of an A.D.H.D. two year old on a sugar high!

I like dynamic and powerful music, good still images that resemble what the author thinks/and describes her characters as looking like interspersed with dialogue about the story. I'm personally not a big fan of the voice over because that means you have to get an additional noise element in and I think the music can pretty much drive things for you. Good luck with your next trailer!Maria D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05747214324745625853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8640495900909855063.post-77789892551777022772012-06-08T04:25:23.249-07:002012-06-08T04:25:23.249-07:00Thank you for visiting,(and for the shares, Kimm! ...Thank you for visiting,(and for the shares, Kimm!
