A Jazzy Trailer for Game Night
Trailers are for movies, right? Or maybe for hipster curbside no-fuss dining establishments.
But actually, trailers are now for cookbooks, too. And other books that show up on shelves each year. I’d never heard the concept of a cookbook trailer until a matter of months ago, when I started seeing/hearing friends talk about trailers they were working on, or seeing links they posted on Twitter. In this modern age, book promotion takes on many forms, no more just a press release sent out by the publisher followed by a string of (often mind-crushingly boring) book signings by the author. Cookbook dinners, fun events, cooking classes, and — borrowing from the world of film — now the cookbook trailer.
Well, just so happens that I’ve got a trailer too! Even though Gourmet Game Night has been out for a little over a year now, a new local company Visual Quill chose the book as a project for their launch portfolio. It was an honor to be part of their early efforts and I’m thrilled with the results! Jazzy, colorful, bold graphics, bouncy pace — it gets the idea of the book across delightfully in just one minute. Hope it makes you want to call a few friends to come over and play some games soon, while you’re nibbling on some tasty food. Food that you’ve cooked from Gourmet Game Night, of course!
