For Authors
We at Seelie Studios LOVE a good story, whether it's told on film, video, via audio or the written word. In fact we love books and the people who write them so much that we've partnered with the good folks at publishing house Hadrosaur Productions to offer some excellent programs to help authors reach new audiences in this incredibly competitive new media world.
Book Trailers
Book trailers have become a critical part of the marketing plan for a book release. Creating an engaging video trailer that captures readers' attention is part art and part science.
Fortunately you can have us on your side. We're multiple award winning filmmakers who have made branded entertainment media for more than a decade. Better yet, through our partnership with Hadrosaur Productions, we have a prolific publishing team available to consult on everything from screenplay development to the trailer's marketing plan.
Here's an example of a recent cinematic-style book trailer we produced for Hadrosaur Productions' author David Lee Summers.

Audio Books
Audio books have become an integral part of an author's release strategy. Producing an audio book requires different skills than writing and publishing a book, however, and it's a time intensive, and often expensive process. The process of marking an audio book includes another set of skills altogether. More and more discerning listeners are leaving public reviews not only about the story content but about also the production value of the book and, most importantly about the performances of the readers.
Audio book sales exceeded 1 billion dollars in 2018 and according to all of our sources, those figures are expected to grow exponentially in future years. How can an author or a smaller publishing company possibly compete with large releases that use top Hollywood talent and have huge marketing budgets?

Seelie Studios has formed a strategic partnership with publisher Hadrosaur Productions to create a new strategy designed to help select authors to succeed in the highly competitive audio book market. We work with multi-award winning sound engineers, highly experienced directors and a hand picked regular cast of excellent, trained, working performers who can give engaging and enjoyable performances.

Consumers will knwo tha if its a Seelie Studios audio book, it's likely to be a story they will enjoy and its likely to be well made.
