Thanks so much for watching! I hope you found this video on book trailers for children's books helpful. If you’re planning to write a children’s book, let me know! I can’t wait to cheer you on!
Thank you very much Eevi for the resources and advices ! Yes, I have a video trailer but it’s a bit different in style. I didn’t know how to make a book trailer with only 2 pages of the book contents as stated by the publisher so I made this: czcams.com/video/VPJgvaPipKI/video.html I also made a simple music video for kids. I still need a lot of help and advice on CPB. (D. Chesson recommended you.)
Hello. I am happy that I found your video, currently working on my Children's Superhero Comic book "Nightmare Fighters"
🔥🔥🔥 Always a wealth of knowledge Eevi! Thank you so much
I'm so, so happy to hear this!
Thank you for sharing this. Your videos are always so timely and informative
You are so, so welcome!!
plain and simple.... thanks
You're so welcome, Pierre!!
The cost is nominal for a great return! Comprehension can increase 76% with audio text. This short trailer can optimize my sales and put books into the hands of our little ones and the tall-persons who read or listen to them. Appreciate all you do!
Thank you so much, Carla!
Great tips! Thank you!! I'm going to try making a trailer. Wish me luck! :)
Good luck!!!! xo
After watching many of your videos, I feel encouraged to try my hand at writing a children's book. I've also just purchased your book. Thank you so much for the information you've already shared with the community. I'll be delighted to publish a book for my child or future children. Being able to say 'I did that' will be truly amazing.
This is so wonderful to hear! I hope you have so much fun creating your very own children's book!
What a jam-packed video! Thanks Eevi for the helpful content.
I'm so happy to hear this! Happy, happy holidays, and a wonderful new year!
Thank you Eevi! You are generous with your knowledge and easy to follow! 🤩
That is so wonderful to hear!!!
Awesome suggestions and resources. Thank you! :)
You are so, so welcome! Thank you so much for always watching!
Gratitude 🙏
Thank you for the video and suggestions!
You're so, so welcome, Jay!
Great insights as usual. Thanks!
Thank you so much!
Thank you Eevi!!! Your material has helped me through publishing my first book and now giving me tips on making a trailer. 🤩🥳 I would love to send you a copy of my book.
I'm so happy to hear this and am so looking forward to your trailer, Christina!
Thank you 😊
You're so very welcome, Joshua!
Great information. Thank you Eevi. It will help with the book trailer I am working on for Christmas Fairy Tale. I am using Canva. Your information will help me correct a couple of mistakes I made, including the book cover at the beginning instead of the end. Thank you again for your expertise and energetic attitude!
I'm so happy to hear this helped, Mary!! Thanks so much for your kind words!
Thanks Eevie. I have written a chapter book for young children and my illustrations are in black and white. Would they work for a book trailer, please?
Hi Jacqueline! Yes, you can absolutely create a book trailer with black and white illustrations. Have such a wonderful day!
Hello Eevi, I love that your videos are packed with great suggestions and "don't do this" - very clear, interesting and extremely useful! I'm a huge fan! :) Thank you also for the resources, I'm definitely going to use the site for free sound effects! :D
Here comes an idea for a future video, if you're up for it:
Sixteen of my children's books have been published in Scandinavia (I'm Swedish) by the largest publishers, I've been interviewed on TV in Sweden, Norway and Denmark and one of my books was a bestseller, but now I'm about to try my luck on bigger markets, and I'm at a loss... It's SO overwhelming!!! I would really appreciate a video on how to go about hiring someone to create and implement a marketing plan for a KDP book (hopefully I will learn in the process). I have a full-time job and there's just too much to learn and do, I need help!
I'm so happy to hear this, Camilla! Thank you so much for your kind words! Thanks so much for your wonderful suggestions! I currently have a video that looks into whether or not such a service would be beneficial, and what we can do instead. But it does not talk about the actual hiring process of such a service. BTW, your books look so very wonderful, Camilla!
@@EeviJones Thank you Eevi, and thanks for checking them out! I'll have a look at your video and see if I manage to motivate myself to learn how to go about this...
Thank you. Like always, such great information in here. Does Canva have a section explaining how to use it for book trailers?
You're so welcome, Lucia! I'm so happy to hear it! I don't believe Canva has a particular how-to specifically for book trailers. However, don't be afraid to experiment a little bit. Canva is very intuitive and very forgiving. Have the best time creating your book trailer, Lucia!
@@EeviJones Thank you, I love CANVA. I will definitely experiment
How do you add your trailer to Author Central? Thank you, Eevi!
Hi Wendy! You could, for example, go into your author profile over on Author Central. When you click on edit, you should see a section that allows you to add photos and videos. I so hope this helps! Happy Friday!
