The book trailer should be between 1 – 3 minutes. 2. Introduce the title, author and suitable age range of readers. 3. If possible, include a graphic of the cover page. 4. Give a brief overview of the book, but don’t give too much away as the whole point is for the person to pick up the book and read it. I just hate it when a movie trailer gives away the entire plot line. 5. Use your own voice and possibly a head shot when talking about the book. 6. It may seem obvious, but pick a book you have read and would love to do as your first book trailer. Your enthusiasm will naturally come through.<a href="http://r6.sharedcopy.com/1u8uqp#shcp0" > ^{link &raquo;}</a ></blockquote> <blockquote class="comment_body comment_body2" >Write a script<a href="http://r6.sharedcopy.com/1u8uqp#shcp1" > ^{link &raquo;}</a ></blockquote> <blockquote class="comment_body comment_body3" >Storyboard<a href="http://r6.sharedcopy.com/1u8uqp#shcp2" > ^{link &raquo;}</a ></blockquote> <blockquote class="comment_body comment_body4" >Music<a href="http://r6.sharedcopy.com/1u8uqp#shcp3" > ^{link &raquo;}</a ></blockquote> <blockquote class="comment_body comment_body5" >Collecting images<a href="http://r6.sharedcopy.com/1u8uqp#shcp4" > ^{link &raquo;}</a ></blockquote> </span ></span> ramblinglibrarian 2 http://www.guardian.co.uk.sharedcopy.com/commentisfree/cifamerica/2009/nov/02/b5a0375f297f29f219bf1bb465062a94.html#51868 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 12:07:57 +0000 <span class="content comments_count_5 withoutphoto" ><span class="text" ><div class="html_gist none"><input class="csspath" type="hidden" value="body.article div#wrapper div#promo div.latest-cif-posts.capsule div.latest-content ul#cif-auto-trail-block li div.byline a.container img.shcp_dimension_60x60" /><img class="shcp_dimension_60x60" src="http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2009/11/2/1257174693061/mackintosh_grey.jpg" alt="Alistair Mackintosh" width="60" /></div> <p class="comment_body comment_body1" > See if you can spot the "good practices" in writing for blogs/ social media. <a href="http://r2.sharedcopy.com/5lk0r#shcp0" > ^{link &raquo;}</a ></p> <p class="comment_body comment_body2" > Use of hyerlinks <a href="http://r2.sharedcopy.com/5lk0r#shcp1" > ^{link &raquo;}</a ></p> <p class="comment_body comment_body3" > Writing/ "speaking" to you as the reader, one to one. <a href="http://r2.sharedcopy.com/5lk0r#shcp2" > ^{link &raquo;}</a ></p> <p class="comment_body comment_body4" > Think about his choice of words: "fighting", "hamstrung". <a href="http://r2.sharedcopy.com/5lk0r#shcp3" > ^{link &raquo;}</a ></p> <p class="comment_body comment_body5" > More of the "fighting" analogy.
