A Trailer Sells the Feeling, Not the Plot
A reader scrolling past your book gives it about two seconds. A cover has to earn attention in that window; a trailer gets to keep it. Done well, thirty seconds of the right imagery, pacing and sound convey the tone of your book faster than any description — and video is what every social platform and ad network currently pushes hardest.
We write, storyboard, edit and score trailers built for where they will actually run: vertical cuts for Reels and TikTok, square for feeds, wide for YouTube and your website. One production, every aspect ratio you need.
What You Get
One Shoot, a Full Set of Assets
Motion & Footage
Licensed cinematic footage, custom motion graphics or illustrated animation, matched to your genre's visual language.
Voice-Over & Score
Professional narration and a fully licensed soundtrack, mixed so the words stay clear on phone speakers.
Every Aspect Ratio
16:9, 1:1 and 9:16 exports plus a 6-second bumper, all captioned for silent autoplay.
3D Cover Reveal
An animated hardback or paperback mockup of your actual cover — the single most reused asset most authors get from us.
Ad-Ready Cuts
Shorter variants built to platform ad specs so the trailer can go straight into a paid campaign.
Where It Runs
Built to Be Used, Not Just Admired
A trailer that lives only on your website is a wasted budget. We deliver yours in the formats and lengths each channel actually wants, with captions burned in, so it can go to work the day you receive it.
Your Book's Listing
Amazon A+ content and the video slot on your book's detail page, where browsing readers decide.
Short-Form Social
Instagram Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts, cut vertical and captioned for silent autoplay.
Paid Campaigns
Meta and YouTube ad variants built to each platform's spec so the trailer can run as an ad immediately.
Your Own Channels
Author website, newsletter, press kit and any crowdfunding page you are running.
Good to Know
Book Trailer Questions
How long should a book trailer be?
Thirty seconds is the sweet spot for social and ads. We usually deliver a 30-second main cut, a 15-second version and a 6-second bumper from the same production.
Do I need to appear on camera?
Not at all. Most trailers use footage, typography and motion graphics with a voice-over. If you do want to appear — common for non-fiction and memoir — we will direct a simple remote shoot.
How long does production take?
Two to three weeks from script approval. Rush delivery in about seven days is possible for an additional fee.
Is the music properly licensed?
Yes. Every track and clip we use comes with a commercial licence covering paid advertising, and the licence documentation is handed to you with the files.
What if I do not like the first cut?
Two rounds of revisions are included, and because you approve the script and storyboard before editing begins, first cuts rarely miss by much.
