That feeling is what I kept getting with the titles. Think of it like you're deeply entrenched in reading your favourite book when someone slams a door three feet away from you. I think it had something to do with their speed (although I'm not certain on that) but they kept taking me away from the video itself. I found the titles used somewhat abrasive. I really enjoyed the opening of the trailer, specifically the owl. I tread here, semi-lightly, largely because having made numerous short films before I know how painful it is to even get the slightest correct criticism thrown in my direction (and whether any of my criticisms are correct are not is certainly open for argument): Hope you enjoy this, my first effort to make images that match what I see in my mind! And it couldn't have been too bad for S & D, because Kat says that yes, they'd be willing to do another book video. Anything you like, put that down to cooler and more experienced heads prevailing! Anything a bit bumpy, well, that's probably me driving from the back seat!Īnd all in all, we had a lot of fun doing this.
This has been a steep learning curve for me, so be kind. Gimme a paragraph, and they're all yours.īut with a camera and a soundtrack. You want dragons the size of construction cranes? Sure. With a book, it's me and the keyboard, and an unlimited budget for special effects. I've come to realize that this creative process is far more complicated than writing. I am emerging from this experience with a much greater amount of respect for people who make videos and movies.
That's the small production company I've been working with in my first efforts to creat a book trailer for one of my own books. Here is a link that will take you to YouTube and the site for Sabotage & Dialogue.
If I were very clever, or even moderately clever, I think I'd know a better way to link to this.įor now, I'll go with simple.
