Wow. It's amazing what you can do with a few stock photos, some music, and iMovie. Ever heard of a book trailer? Yeah, me neither. At least, not until I started hobnobbing with fellow authors. Turns out, it's just as normal to release a book trailer as it is a movie trailer, and probably much easier to make. After a few hours of attempting to put it together in Power Point, I learned the hard way how difficult it is to convert to video. Turns out, iMovie is a heck of a lot easier to use. A few iMovie Youtube tutorials, a dozen stock photos, and a royalty free soundtrack later, and I'd created my own book trailer! It was a ton of fun, once I got through the learning curve. I look forward to putting together one for Book Two next spring, and hope to have some live action filmed by then. Anyway, without further ado, here it is. The trailer for Book One: When Darkness Builds, which will be available on Amazon, B&N, iBooks, Google Play, and Kobo May 19th.
