Book Trailers – an afternoon’s play

A comet hitting a city at night.

For a little bit of fun, but mostly experience, I made a book trailer for a work in progress.

It’s not the greatest thing in the world, but for an afternoon’s work and considering all I had was a bunch of clips and a copy of Movie Maker (which I’d never used before – in fact, I’ve never used any movie-making software), I think I’ve done pretty well.

I’d be interested to know what you think about:

  • what works
  • what doesn’t
  • where it could be improved.

I know I’ve got a huge list of things I’d change if I had the right skills and the time (including an image of actual book cover at the end), but please let me know your thoughts about anything else you notice isn’t working for you, or you would change/add/alter (in the comments section or elsewhere).
