Thanks for this thread, Dee!
Here is my video. In it I share extracts of my book, Legacy, with a reading done my a friend of mine, Michael Arnold.

Thank you L.M! I enjoyed your trailer as well. You have 648 views! Very cool!

I meant it, Sandra. It was a very nicely done trailer. :)

Of course, Sandra! Many thanks for the like and comment!

Thanks for the kind words, Nina and Pete! Pete, absolutely will I post a comment for your trailer, not because you've done the same for me, but I liked your trailer and the story idea very much!

I just released my first children's book, The Hex Hunt (Vol.1)and made a trailer for it as well. :)

Hey, everyone! I uploaded a book trailer for my novel, The Warning, not long ago and would love to hear what you guys think. Also, maybe we can help each other out by clicking like on each other's trailer. Every little bit helps, right? I'm going through everyone's trailer right now and clicking like if I haven't already. :0

I dig that, Dante. Short and sweet. The only thing is the text is a little too dark.

Emily, your story sounds pretty cool. If you want to make a trailer, you can do so via Movie Maker on Windows 7 or iMovie depending on your computer. I think a book trailer ought to be custom made just for the book. Instead of throwing any image that kind of comes close to what your blurb is reading, maybe take your own photos matching your book's description. Not only will you tell people about your book the way you want them to see it, you’ll also avoid any copyright infringement. And use a font and music that best suits your story. If you have the loot, or connections you can also film it like Sandra did. I hope this helps. Best the luck!

Jamie, your story seems very cool. It appears to be dramatic and thrilling. Some of the photo, I felt could've been left out, though. The one picture that stood out for me was the Native American illustration. That kind of image fits in the best with your exciting premise, (in my opinion) I'd also recommend playing around with different fonts. You don't have to use that basic Segoe UI font. Be as creative in your font styles as you are in your story. :) And I also agree with Roty about the music. Good luck!

Sandra, that was one of best trailers I've seen! It was like a movie trailer. It didn't tell too much of the story and it's intriguing enough to pull readers, who are fond of that genre, in. Very cool!

Hi, Dee! Hey everyone! What an awesome group. My name is Michelle Lowe, author of the sci/mystery, The Warning. My website is www.michellelowe.net. I have just released my book trailer today and would love for anyone to check it out. Many, many thanks!
