Book Trailers


Book trailers are a fairly recent phenomenon in the  publishing industry. They originated less than ten years ago, based on the  venerable institution of  the movie trailer, but have only really taken off  since the development of video sharing sites such as Youtube.

Book trailers are a form of advertising for a book.  Initially, they were literally sales pitches. Produced by publishers, and  sometimes authors themselves, they were tools to pique interest in the novel.  Their popularity has exploded, and many have gone viral, becoming a vital part  of many publishers’ marketing strategies.

Book trailers can vary tremendously in how they are  produced. Some are fully scripted mini-movies, and others are simply uploaded PowerPoint  presentations. The one thing they all share in common is a desire to introduce  the book, and convert viewers of the trailer into readers of the book.
