On offer again: ONE BOOK TRAILER!

I'm back again after the boards have been wiped to once again offer a trailer to ONE CUSTOMER. I cannot commit to more than one at a time, hence I will not reply to others after one person has posted - if, of course, the first person has met all the requirements.

Firstly - I will do any kind of trailer except one that had romance as the lead genre. It's difficult to source enough clips for that kind of thing, especially ones with specific actors. So, a little romance is ok but I much prefer something with action and adventure. If your book is exciting then I will be excited, and then your trailer will be exciting too. That said, if you're writing a low-action novel, don't shy away! I'm up for anything. Oh, BUT NO FAN-FICTION. Please, spare me. Thank you!

If you're submitting your details, here's what you should include:

1. The title

2. Your name, or username

3. A brief synopsis of the story

4. The genre and sub-genre (if any) of the story, including the feel of the story (is it dark, comedic,

5. Details on your main characters and any actors that they look like (it will be VERY BENEFICIAL for your trailer if you choose an actor that looks like your protag, especially a popular one. It makes sourcing clips much easier and it will allow me to include your character in the trailer)

6. The relationships between those characters (ie, if MC and FMC are together, or if they are brother and sister, or one is a teacher and one is a student, etc)

7. Any music that you would like included in the trailer (or if you don't have specifics, give me an idea - like classical or high-action instrumental, or a pop song about X theme, etc)

8. Any key scenes that you would like included in the trailer (no promises here, but I'll try)

9. Any key objects that you would like included in the trailer (ex: if your novel has a red scarf as a important object in your story, say that you want a red scarf to appear somewhere in the trailer. Again no promises that I can actually include it, but I'll do my best)

10. A tagline to include in the trailer, if you have one

11. Also state if there are any existing films or trailers that remind you of the feel of your story or the style of the trailer you would like. Or say, it's a mash-up between "X" film and "Y" film, to give me an idea of what you want.

12. Anything else you feel the need to mention!

I know it's a lot of information, but I really want to make a good trailer for you and all of this will be helpful, I promise. If you're afraid of someone nicking your spot on this thread while you're hastily typing it all up, feel free to leave a single comment first to let me know that you're reserving a spot. Keep in mind though, that if you don't meet the requirements I will bump you off. Sorry to sound harsh, but as I'm only doing one trailer, I want to do it for someone who's willing to cooperate with all my needs. Haha. :) Thank you!

Hi, i really want one, but may i see an example of what you have done?

Oh gee, FAIL. Forgot to include that! Haha. Knew I forgot something!!! Here's the link: http://vimeo.com/30299977

Can I hold a spot for the next one? :D

Ok well I have two contenders now so this might become a first-in-with-the-information-first-served kind of thing! Good luck.

Am I allowed to compete for a spot? :)

1. The title
Ashes, Ashes

2. Your name, or username
Lyra Wood

3. A brief synopsis of the story
This isn't going to be pretty, but:
The U.S. has crumbled. There are no more states, only a totalitarian government. Miry, a sixteen-year-old assassin, is assigned to locate and kill the rebel leader. It's easy enough to find the rebels, hidden in tunnels deep under the city. There are a thousand reasons she should turn them in, and one reason she won't: Jem.
Basically, it's a dystopian romance, and she ends up joining the rebels. It's book one in a duo.

4. The genre and sub-genre (if any) of the story, including the feel of the story (is it dark, comedic,
Dystopian.
Dark. Desperate. Wild. Sort of romantic.

5. Details on your main characters and any actors that they look like (it will be VERY BENEFICIAL for your trailer if you choose an actor that looks like your protag, especially a popular one. It makes sourcing clips much easier and it will allow me to include your character in the trailer)

Um. The actors I picked for my characters might be very hard to find, so I understand if you can't do it. :)
Jem: Gaspard Ulliel (NOT WITH THE BEARD!)
Miry: Hannah Marks, although Lily Collins would work okay.
There is also a black guy named Indigo who's friends with Jem, and an asian woman named Naomi who happens to be Indigo's girlfriend. I don't have actors for them, unfortunately.

6. The relationships between those characters (ie, if MC and FMC are together, or if they are brother and sister, or one is a teacher and one is a student, etc)
Miry + Jem. They used to be best friends, when they were kids, but then Miry's memory was wiped, so she doesn't remember a thing. Jem is 17 or 18, by the way.


7. Any music that you would like included in the trailer (or if you don't have specifics, give me an idea - like classical or high-action instrumental, or a pop song about X theme, etc)
Ummm here's some options:
Resistance-Muse
Say When- the Fray
Leave out all the rest-Linkin Park
Let the flames begin-paramore
Go with whatever inspires you.

8. Any key scenes that you would like included in the trailer (no promises here, but I'll try)
a) There's one scene where Jem and Miry stand on the roof of an asylum under the stars. that's a pretty important scene.
b) A bunch of the rebels put explosives in the town hall
c) During a riot, Jem gets beat up by a cop and arrested.
d) Jem and Miry go back to the street Jem used to live, which has been burned to the ground. Nothing but ashes.

9. Any key objects that you would like included in the trailer (ex: if your novel has a red scarf as a important object in your story, say that you want a red scarf to appear somewhere in the trailer. Again no promises that I can actually include it, but I'll do my best)
Fire. Ashes, obviously. Stars.

10. A tagline to include in the trailer, if you have one
Don't have one. :/

11. Also state if there are any existing films or trailers that remind you of the feel of your story or the style of the trailer you would like. Or say, it's a mash-up between "X" film and "Y" film, to give me an idea of what you want.
I'm sorry, I haven't seen very many movies, so I don't know! I'm really not picky about it. :)

12. Anything else you feel the need to mention!
nothing. :)

I realize I didn't reserve a spot...so I understand if one of the first two gets it instead. But I thought it was worth a try. :)

That's absolutely fine! Sorry for the difficulty (is that the right word?) of it!

Haha that's ok! It sounds really awesome and I can picture it really well in my head, it's just the matter of sourcing clips... I will NaNomail you if I am going to go through with it :)

Awesome! I'd tell you a movie that it's like...but my knowledge of them is completely and utterly pathetic.

1. Immortal: In Moonlight (book one of the Immortal Trilogy
