King Rolen’s Kin and Death Most Definte – Book Trailers of the Day

This is interesting because it uses computer animation, very well executed. This trailer was produced by Daryl Lindquist of R&D Studios. I especially like the way the trailer leads into the dramatic framing = book cover. Then the covers of the trilogy pop up in tempo to the ringing bells while snow continues on the black background. Nice.

This trailer has only one problem; it’s a problem with the cover too.

Who is the author?! The name is so small I couldn’t read it after several replays. I don’t want to have to expand the video to full screen just to know who wrote this book, it should be splashed across the screen for my Lazy Reader convenience.

Ok, ok! I expanded the video to full screen.

It’s Rowena Cory Daniels. Her Facebook slogan is, “Pour your heart and soul into your books in the hope that other people will want to read them!”

Amen.

R&D Studios does some classy work. Here’s another one, for Death Most Definite by Trent Jamieson.

Looks good, Trent!
