Simple Rules of Creating Book Trailers.
  • Keep it SIMPLE Not a lot of text!!
  • Watch your images!! Look at how text would be
    seen ON the slide (i.e. too many colors on an
    image, contrast, font size and type)
  • Keep the transitions and effects TO A MINIMUM
    dont keep switchingno more than 2-3 throughout
    the trailer is usually enough!!
