On May 3rd, 2010 Irene Watson and Victor R. Volkman spoke with artist, author, and book video director/producer Kim McDougal of Blazing Trailers.  Kim has produced more than 100 book video trailers and hosts more than a thousand of them on BlazingTrailers. She shared her hard won experience in producing and also critiquing these latest promotional marketing tools.  Her laser-sharp focus in marketing really showed us what does and doesnt work for videos.  Some talking points included:

• Why make a book video trailer?
• What makes a good trailer (good, bad, or ugly)?
• How do I use my trailer effectively?
• Can I include a Special offer in my video?
• Walk us through a typical experience with you working with an author
• Should I make my own trailer or have someone make it for me?
