My Vy Phan (Gr. 12)
When creating the book trailer, I faced the challenge of finding the necessary materials that would fit Saratarou Daikatsuyaku and the creative commons requirement. I wanted for the trailer to fit what the story conveyed, and it took a lot of digging so that I could find content that did not have copyright infringement issues and still include proper attributions. With so many things to take into consideration, I decided that the best way to make an impact was to keep it simple, and thus, the simplicity allowed my audience to be intrigued and visualize the basis of the story.

During the creation of my book trailer, I absolutely knew I wanted it to be short and comedic. I drew simple characters to make them easy on the eyes, as well as fun to look at. To complement the silly aesthetic and comedic tone, I added goofy voice acting, as well as upbeat music. Though it is a brief trailer, I am quite proud of the humor it brought to both me and my peers.
The first half is very good, but there is also a part that may lead to misunderstanding of the content. It is slightly regretful that the work was too short to explain the content of the story fully. The whole content of the story is understood well, and the sushi restaurant's video is impressive. Even a brief comment that encourages a viewer to read a book would have made this work much better.
The hand-drawn illustrations are excellent. The narration is good, but it was a bit regretful that there were some parts that were difficult to understand unless a viewer was fluent both in Japanese and English. It would have been better if that part was more carefully considered.
