A Blind Eye - Book Trailer

Here it is. The moment we've all been waiting for!

The book trailer:



Amazing, yes?

I can't take all the credit--or even a pinch of it. The real genius behind the trailer is Paul, the super talented guy who created the beautiful and stunning shots and visual effects, and did all the editing, and storyboarding, and yeah, pretty much everything that makes it awesome.

Roll the Credits:
Oliver Howells - producer (a much bigger job than I ever imagined. Thanks Oliver!)
Mason Mac - Christian
Amberlee Wilson - Scarlett
Mariah Tess - Jenny
Beau Maxon - Connor
Rocky Bowlby - Gary

And special thanks to about a hundred other super talented and generous people who helped behind the scenes, mixed the sound, composed the original score, provided food for everyone, did the make-up, moved truckloads of equipment over and over again, let us use their facilities to shoot guns in, managed the wardrobe, loaned us their car to nearly wreck on a lonely stretch of highway, fanned fog forever, stood outside in the freezing cold for hours positioning mirrors to direct the light, responded to every crazy request I made on set, made fake blood, pushed the dolly, built a medical examiner's gurney, and so much more. You all rock!

If you like it, PLEASE spread the word! Share it on Facebook, Tweet it, whatever! Let's get it out there!

Thanks!!

  3. That trailer is one of the best I've seen. Did you do it (commission it) or did your pubisher do it?

  5. Best book trailer I'd ever seen. Makes you wonder what the book would be like as a movie, right? And I'm sure it's a little weird and a little cool having all of your ideas on screen!

  10. Dropping by a bit late, but wanted to say that trailer is excellent. Good luck!

    A lot of people do 'turn a blind eye' on what they don't want to see.
