Book trailers that earn the 15 seconds, not the 90.
Short-form video for Reels, TikTok, BookTok, and YouTube Shorts. Built for the algorithm, not for a 2010s movie-trailer aesthetic.
The 90-second cinematic book trailer was a 2014 idea that does not work in a 2026 feed. Today's book trailer is 15 seconds of voiceover over a montage, vertical, captioned, optimized for the BookTok or Reels algorithm. We do that.

Book video trailer — FAQ
Questions we get every week, answered straight.
What about a long-form trailer?
We can produce one for the same investment, but honestly 90-second cinematic book trailers do not move books in 2026. The right deliverable is short-form vertical, optimized for feed scroll-stop.
Will it actually drive sales?
It can, in two specific cases: BookTok-worthy genre (romance, fantasy, thriller, contemporary), and as a paid Reels/TikTok creative asset for ad spend. Outside those, it is a content piece for your social grid, not a direct sales tool. We are honest about that.
