Nickie Fleming - Diamonds For The Devil Book Video Teaser

Nickie Fleming contacted me through my Way Out Sortie MySpace, and was excited about the possibilities of bringing her book to a video production teaser. Her main interest was because the setting, style, and characters felt - to her, and her readers/reviewers - like they just came off an epic Historical Romance/Mystery/Action/Adventure set.

I honestly tried to talk her out of it a bit. Heh. She was very excited, and I didn't want to do an injustice to the image she'd put together in her mind of what a video promoting her book would look like. She was persistent, and I took the job - I think it turned out really nice. It has a bit of a cinematic feel, but it's entirely geared at selling the book based around a hook (It's about... Time to read Nickie Fleming's Diamonds For The Devil), and generate reader interest, more than telling the story of what the book's about.

I tried out some new tricks with this video, including the photo / 3d scenes, the portraiture, the fancy borders at the beginning, etc. Let me know what you think! Does the video get you interest in the story?



In case you ARE interest in the story after seeing this, please visit Nickie Fleming's web site at http://www.nickiefleming.com or buy the book directly at Amazon.com.

If you're interested in a video of your own - for your book, or promotion of yourself as an author - please check out my site at http://www.wayoutsortie.com/. Thanks!
