Book trailer

tronderboo · 03-19-2013, 12:43 AM

So I directed a book trailer for Penguin. It's my first paid directing gig ever, and I warn you it's nowhere near as polished as other people's stuff (PETE). It stars Khyan (of YouTube) as a Lobster who delivers books to people at their workplaces:

It was a new experience for me; directing for hire. It wasn't my idea, and there were certain things (composer, Lobster, etc) that were out of my hands, but I enjoyed setting it up and directing the actors, and they kept all of my additions - so I'll suggest way more next time.

The best part was giving a few Tube Tube crew some paid work. In fact, it was mostly because I've shot a shitload of stuff in public and on public transport that I got the job. So there you go.

Pretty good, I didn't really get it but it looked really good and peaked my interest for the book.

well done Ben!
