ZombieBloodFights.com sets the standard for fun low/no budget book trailers on the 'net today. They continued that unique tradition with the 'Pit Fighter: Baptism by Fire' book trailer series. This blog entry will follow the evolution of the trailers, from the very first one for the first release, into the most recent for the re-release.
Check them out below.
The original release is below. Check out the basic trailer.
When ZBF.com got new editing software, they gave it another shot. Check it out. Same message, but with videos.
With the re-release of the book, and yet newer software, ZBF.com gave it another go with a new series of trailers, starting with a teaser of what's to come.
The concept for the following trailers is to introduce the characters from the book. Here they are. Each of them have their own theme and style. Chain's was done outside of ZombieBloodFights.com, and features original music from the actor that did it. El Aire is especially original and fun, and like nothing you will ever see from any other author out there.

The third trailer takes an abstract take on the book, going with the theme of the book being an old 80s story with 'bloody dice'. Very low budget bloody dice.
And here's the final book trailer for the series, after having built up the characters and their lack of preparedness to face the evil, the series returns to the original ominous tone. Also features the book cover.
Again, ZombieBloodFights.com presents some of the best low/no budget trailers out there, taking risks and doing what it takes to get the message out there.

The fourth book trailer follows the same tactic, showing the quirkiness of the characters, but proposing the dangers that lie before them.
Promoting books is yet another aspect of the writing process nobodies like myself need to do. With all the networking and free resources available, its important for a writer to get their name out there and participate in the sea of online promotion.
Book trailers are one of the ways authors can promote their work. ZombieBloodFights.com took to the trailers quickly. And after buying some affordable movie-making software, began to develop their content.
Below is the ZBF.com book trailer series for 'Codename: La Lechusa', collected in one place for all to see.
Here's the first one. Its a teaser trailer for the upcoming book. Simple and basic.
BOOK TRAILER 1 - CODNAME: LA LECHUSA
Here's the first follow up, featuring video and more teasing about the main character and her supernatural connection. Click on the link below.
There are a lot of great book trailers out there, and a lot of money to be spent on them. I don't have that luxury (yet). But I do have imagination and resources. So the way I see it, there's no excuse for me not to participate in the world of book trailers. Even with the low budget, they're still some of the most unique trailers out there. Very much like the books themselves.
