A Rewarding Video Book Trailer Contest – $1,000 – Open to All – Due July 4, 2012

Posted on 5:59 am in July 2012, Over $1000 by Lynnie

Call for entries! Publisher Arterial Witness and novelist-filmmaker Peter Christian Hall are thrilled to announce a video book trailer contest for American Fever: A Tale of Romance & Pestilence.

Requirements

73-second video
Trailer to include fierce, original music by Gang or Four’s Andy Gill!
Submit as many videos as you like. Surprise us! Deadline: July 4, 2012.
How do you make a video for a book? Start by reading it. While American Fever is commercially available in print and ebook versions, you needn’t pay. A fully linked, illustrated version is posted online at AmericanFeverBook.com. We suggest you become familiar with this East Village blogger’s vivid view of an H5N1 avian flu pandemic that rocks America and unleashes chaos and repression—even as his personal life explodes with promise. Enjoy!
You may enter as many videos as you like. To participate, you need to download three items from this site:
• An MP3 of Andy Gill’s fierce, 70‐second track, American Fever
• Four sets of review quotes that must appear somewhere in the video—however and wherever you prefer to place them
• An image of American Fever’s cover
Once you have finalized your project, please post it on YouTube as an “American Fever Book Video Trailer.” Be sure to link to American Fever‘s website on the top line of your description. (http://www.americanfeverbook.com/synopsis/) Kindly credit author Peter Christian Hall, composer Andy Gill, and yourself in your post, which should also list the novel’s complete title: American Fever: A Tale of Romance & Pestilence.
The only MUSTS are inclusion of four (4) brief review quotes and American Fever’s cover, plus 3 seconds of silence at the end of each video.
