There is one thing that I would like to point out. If you choose poor actors to portray your characters you can end up alienating a potential reader. At first my sister and I decided to forgo the book trailer, but we delved into making a music video based on the book and its characters. It was very important that we chose people that in our mind fit the image of our character. I think for the most part we did pretty good. When we told our publisher about the music video they were pretty persuasive about having a book trailer done as well. We spent a lot of money to hire professionals and use professional equipment. I believe that is evident in the final product.
