There's a good chance that you may have watched tv or gone to the movie theater. If so, then you have probably seen a movie trailer. A "trailer" is a word for a preview or commercial for a movie. However, now that word can be applied to books, too! Publishing companies have started making trailers to advertise books. Instead of just reading a synopsis or review of the book, you can now watch to see what it might be like.
Here are examples of some book trailers:
Now that you're familiar with the idea of a book trailer, write your own book trailer script! Make sure you read the book first. Also, be sure to include details like what the characters look like, what the setting and background will look like, and what types of text, music, and background noises you will incorporate. Keep in mind that you don't want to give away the ending. What about your trailer will catch someone's interest and make them want to read the book?
Post your script here, so that others can take a look. If you have the equipment, get some friends together and film your trailer and post it here, too!
