Making a Video Trailer!

Well, I thought it might be a good idea to play around with making a video trailer for Dangerous Deceit - not as easy as I hoped! But I used Windows Movie Maker and have ended up with something that might do to show the basic outline of the novel. And I like the music! So here goes...

    That's great - it looks good, the pace is right, the music really suits - and it's a real teaser for the book. I want to read it even more now!

    Oh, thank you all very much, Michael, Gwen, Teresa and Janice!

    It was fun to do but I wasn't sure about the pacing - at least it gives a teaser about the story.

    Thanks for that lovely comment, Joanna! Thought it might be a good way to show the basic outline (without any other characters).

    Very nice, Rosemary. I imagine it was hard to find pictures for a Regency--no easy task, huh? I liked the red color added with the text.

    Thank you, Linda - I did search for a while! And my clever daughter helped decide on the red background.

    Clean, clear and intriguing. I like the red background too and I love the rose at the end, both add a layer of richness. All whets the appetite for reading Dangerous Deceit.

    Thanks a lot for your comment, Maggie - the rose was my photo but clever Vikki suggested aging it and it works really well.

    Wow, Rosemary. I'm very impressed. What great work. I love that piece of music. I think it's Mozart? I used to play it on the piano and you've inspired me to go and look it out and play it again. My piano playing is very neglected these days to the writing!

    Hi Bluestocking Mum - thanks for your lovely comment! Hope you do get back to your piano playing - my husband always finds it very relaxing to play when stressed. (It was a Bach prelude - he's one of my favourite composers).

    Thanks for that, Diane - I can't believe we can do these things ourselves relatively easily!
