Story | A trailer must have beginning, middle, and end. Build to some intensity, and reach some conclusion. Make a story.
Lifeboat trailers are never just a bunch of clips strung together to music. |
Narration | If a voice would help tell the story, use a voice |
Sound Effects | When a helicopters flies through, you should hear the helicopter. If a player opens a chest, you should hear the creaking sound. |
Music | We have access to royalty-free music you can use. Please choose from sound stripethen tell us what one you want, we will get it for you. |
Show Features | Be sure to the video shows any key selling points that might sell the map.
Show the custom mobs of a map |
Explain as needed | If the map has unique game play methods, explain them.
Example: Ender Golf Trailer |
Multiple Players | For most videos you will need to get several players together for some shops. Maps with just a single player in them look too lonely. |
The trailers we make must be 1 minute and 10 seconds long with content. We then add 20 seconds to the end of the video with b roll footage to link other videos.
