Okay ladies and gents, I finally decided to take the plunge.
Go where the cool kids hang out. Okay, maybe that isn’t entirely true but I
know I can at least safely say, I’m finally hanging out where the fearless folks make their living.
As the title suggests, I had a book trailer created for Makeup Your Mind and it is FINISHED!
So, a couple things you should know before I share the video
with all of you.
First, I know that trailers generally come out before the
book release to act as a teaser for the release date itself. And, yes, Makeup Your Mind dropped last November.
Unfortunately, Robert and I didn’t start talking about this
as a possibility until I was already pretty far into the writing process and it
was getting much closer to date of release. And, hello, video production takes
time!
Second, this book trailer business is a first for both of
us. On my end it’s both exhilarating and terrifying to try something new.
We are both at a critical time in our creative careers where
it makes sense to branch out into new forms of media/new offerings to potential
clients and it was perfect timing for both of us!
Finally, if you were around/growing up in the last “innocent”
decade, the nineties, then welcome to your life flashback.
LITERALLY every detail about this trailer is exactly what I
wanted without knowing how to even express it.
The layout, design, of the interior of the mall, the
graphics, the fuzzy lips, the music. EVERYthing about this book trailer so
perfectly captures the essence of nineties it makes me feel like I wrote the
book and he created this trailer during
that decade!
(Could I BE using
more accentuated pronunciation?)
Robert is going to get me some business cards, contact info,
rates, etc. soon so I can refer his services all over town because I know there
are other authors out there ready to make the leap into the fun world of video accompaniment.
So, without further rambling (gushing, over-the-top praise???)
here’s the very first Writesy Press, LLC book release book trailer!
Give Robert some love and les us both know what you think.
“This year is gonna rock for all of us!”
