Go on, show off ..Best foot forward!
During Faffcon3 my lovely friend Melissa gave a read in front of the several thousand people who attended my session. Here's the thing, it was written with stereotypical male US movie trailer guy in mind. Cold read was gutsy and with a couple of notes from a director it would've been a keeper ...
Go on be "y'know dood, the trailer guy/gal"
Here's my contribution.

Hard to follow that, but I'll throw my hat into the pie. It's the demo I use when no actual copy is supplied.

Does it have to be deep and scary? If not, here's one I dummied up.

Here's my 9-yr-old's contribution...
This is in the vein of the trailer for The Woman in Black:

(She comes back in at 2:07, if you want the full effect... )
Yeah, she can't get deep and scary -- but she pulls off creepy pretty well.

Kristin! She's fantastic!! That's creepily good!
And there goes Philip exaggerating again...
Since I have no idea how you manage to separate out and drop audio into trailers - and I probably can't do it with S.Forge anyway, (one day I'll have to get one of you to tell me how you do it!!) I'll just have to make do with dropping my audio over a piece of music. I actually played around with this piece of copy a little bit a few years ago, and I love epic fantasy stuff, so I dug it out of my files to mess with again.

+1 for Mel's comment re Kirstin's 9-year-old. Seriously good production all-round!
OK, I'll play as it's amongst friends
This is my cod movie trailer for a podcast - hardly best foot forward, but it's the closest I've got... and it's the only time I've ever said, "In a world..."

Kristin,
Sorry I hadn't viewed your daughter's piece before I posted earlier. She is, of course, just phenomenal! Seriously. And what an outstanding trailer! I actually got a little creeped out watching it!
Melissa:
Sweet! That's really, really good!!
Darren: Funny stuff. Thanks for this morning's grins!
And well, okay, here's the one that's on my site. It's a few years old now:

last fall a buddy of mine wanted to do a video wedding invitation. we had a HUGE film noir project mapped out that likely would have taken 3 days to shoot and another week to edit ... but nobody had the time so i slapped this together at the last minute instead.
