The fact that audience retention noticeably drops at 30 seconds and at 60 seconds suggests that a trailer would be fully viewed by a higher percentage of its viewers if it was closer to that length. That's all I'm saying. --- Quote from: Toadzard on October 10, 2013, 10:41:57 AM ---Look at content and presentation style too. It's not about copying, it's about making something that's effective. --- End quote --- What corner of your ass did you pull this piece of advice from? |

It should be around 60 seconds long. Maybe a bit less. I'm pretty sure badspot will just end up making his own with Rotondo |

I'm willing to give you the benefit of doubt. --- End quote --- It's painfully obvious and you're condescending for having given it I can't stop thinking about it. Trailers are not about copying things, they're about being effective Advice is about telling people something helpful, not something completely intuitive Cars are not for eating dinner, they're for moving from one place to another Are you a half-assed brown townyst like me, where you sometimes just say bullstuff that sounds vaguely like it might be helpful or insightful so you can feel like you contributed in some way, when it would have been equally effective to shout SKY'S BLUE, DUMBASS? Final word, if the trailer will: be more tightly edited, get its point across effectively in a shorter time, keep more of its audience seeing a greater amount of what there is to show, be easier for someone with goals beyond "please existing players" to create, it's gonna be shorter. Trust me, it won't just be a duplicate of the old one with shadows added and 43 seconds chopped off the end. |
