30-Second Christian Book Trailer
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I’ve written a new Christian book centered on Faith and Spiritual Growth and now need a punchy 30-second trailer formatted for TikTok’s 9:16 feed. I already have a detailed, time-stamped storyboard with the exact phrases to display, the sequence of beats, and the CTA; what I’m missing is a creative video professional who can turn that into a polished clip.
Here’s what I’m after:
• Style: strictly text-based with images—no full animation or live-action performances required, though light motion effects on the text or subtle parallax on photos are welcome.
• Visuals: royalty-free stock photos that match the tone of hope, prayer, and everyday spiritual moments. I’ll provide the book cover; you source and license the remaining images.
• Audio: gentle, upbeat background music that’s TikTok-safe and license-cleared, fading under a final narrator-style text slide.
• Specs: 1080 × 1920 MP4, under 30 s, file size within TikTok limits, color-graded so the cover art pops.
• Deliverables: final video + an editable project file (Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or CapCut—use whichever you’re fastest in) + a document listing image and music sources.
Acceptance criteria
1. All text appears exactly as in my instruction sheet and is readable on a phone screen.
2. First three seconds include a strong hook image from the list I’ll supply.
3. Audio levels are balanced so text remains clear.
4. Final render passes TikTok’s upload check without warnings.
If this aligns with your skill set, let me see a sample of a previous short social trailer or a quick rough cut idea. I’m ready to move fast and will give prompt feedback on the first draft.
