Default Book trailers (like movie trailers) - the way of the future?

The author Max Barry says, he used to go to bookstores to do signings to promote his books...

But now...

It's the time of the "book trailer!" (Like a movie trailer, only for books!)

Check out his (hilarious) book trailer at the link below...

Are "book trailers" the way of the future?

Best wishes,

Dien

That's a very funny video, Dien - I've a German teacher friend who will just love this. It'll be great for the English students.

Hi Margaret,

I'm glad you liked it, and I hope your friend likes it too!

I kind of hope "book trailers" could be the way of the future - because they could be a lot of fun...

(Both to watch, and also to make!)

Best wishes,

Dien

Default His Book/Video Trailers is missing one of these . . .

Hi Dean, Now that he has a video trailer for his book he needs to print a QR code on the cover so when someone is browsing in a book store they can scan the code with their smart phone to watch the trailer on the spot and see what the book is about.

I walked into a Blockbuster Video Store last night and noticed a QR Code on the DVD case so you could whip out your iPhone, scan the code and see the movie trailer!

Last week I bought the book "Get Rich Click" by Marc Ostrofsky after scanning the QR code on the back cover.

Cheers,
Steve
