What is a Book Trailer?
Book trailers are like movie trailers, except for books. They are video teasers created by a publisher, marketing professional, or author to attract attention to both the book and the author. These trailers can take many forms – some are simply single-camera shot of the author reading part of thier story, or talking about the book. Sometimes they are elaborate, high-end, fully produced trailers designed to mimic blockbuster movie trailers. Sometimes they are an animated version of the book’s cover and interior illustrations.
For a great spectrum of bookstrailers, check out my YouTube Channel’s “Book Trailer” Playlist.
