/r/FanTrailers
Watch new fan-made trailers every day! We have contests, AMA's with industry pros, and a friendly, feedback-centric community!
Welcome to /r/FanTrailers, a subreddit of the fans, by the fans and for the fans!
Have you ever found a fan-made trailer in a dark corner of the internet and thought to yourself "Okay wow, this is way better than the official one!"? Are you looking for a place to share your latest creation on which you spent 36 hours, non-stop? Or, maybe, you are just eager to discover the wonders (and horrors!) that fandom may birth? Well, if I didn't already spell it out for you - you've come to the right place!
By default, and for your own safety, always assume spoilers. Check the title and comments for spoiler warnings.
You can use [OC] (= Original Content) tags when posting your own creations. In addition, you could also use the special "Original Content" link flair which is colored differently (purple). You can also edit the text. It could bring more attention to your post.
However, before posting, please acknowledge the following guidelines:
"The 8 Rules"
Rule 1: Please, treat each other with respect and be considerate. Downvoting is not considered critique here, unless it's accompanied with an explanation for the downvote.
Rule 2: Any kind of work can be trailered and posted here as long as it (1) is a trailer and (2) is fan-made. Official trailers are not acceptable, but they may still be posted in the comment section.
Rule 3: No overt pornography or excessive nudity. Brief nudity is accepted but must be accompanied with a NSFW tag.
Rule 4: Very excessive violence will also be removed if present. Please consider using a NSFW tag if appropriate. If you are unsure if your submission follows the rules, PM a mod and they will let you know if it works or not.
Rule 5: Any video host is good, although YouTube is highly advised. The higher the resolution, the better. Avoid submitting videos with the "Private" setting, country-blocked videos or referee links.
Rule 6: Please flair your post. Flairing will be enforced when you forget to do so.
Rule 7: Please mention the name of the work you're trailering in your post, or at least comment on the post with the author's name and/or source.
Rule 8: Add a spoiler warning if necessary.

Few days ago I have shared some free trailer sound effects that you can download from the PremiumBeat Blog and now I would like to share more Free sound effects this time from the BoomLibrary
https://www.boomlibrary.com/sound-effects/free-sounds-cinematic-series/
The pack contains 142 Sounds, which isn't a huge amount, but the sound effects are high quality and most importantly FREE!
I love me some Departed. So I made a trailer of my own.
Hey folks,
Here's a trailer I put together for the Alien ³ remaster I'm doing. I'm enhancing all the special effects and upscaling it to crisp 4K (grain included). If you want to take a better look at all the changes I've made, feel free to stop by the website at www.a34k.net, although the site is still in development and some sections aren't active yet.
Hope you like the trailer and I plan to be putting the finished product out there in October.
Many of you might already know this but PremiumBeat offers bunch of free sound effects on their blog.
One of the packs contains sound effects specifically for trailers.
https://www.premiumbeat.com/blog/epic-free-sound-effects-for-film-video-trailers/
This might be useful for people on a budget who are looking for high quality sound effects, but can't afford to buy a pack or pay for a subscription to a music/soundFX library.
I made this using Photoshop and After Effects to create & animate scenes rather than using any footage (apart from a few stock elements).
(The screen plays on a needle scraping on paper, also known as a seismometer, then the screen cuts to helicopters flying over a area)
Narrator: For most of human civilization….we believed that life could only exist…on the surface of our planet
(the screen cuts to the desert area, where Kaiju activity happens,blue Crystals form,and then a large arm reaches out)
Holley: what else were we wrong about?
🎶welcome to my World🎶
(The screen cuts to the hollow earth)
🎶🎶won't you come on in🎶
(Then Earl suddenly jumps while roaring, along with his sister, Ruby Gillman exploring the hollow earth with the HEAV)
Holley: This world has more secrets that we can possibly imagine
(Ruby then sees a large shadow, she's so terrified at this, until she sees Major, a gojira member, and his two kids, to where she starts to feel confused. Major then looks at her while concerned)
Buck: What is that?
(A large red handprint then shows on a Large rock)
Holley: That's not the simblings
(The screen cuts to Ruby going into a deep cavern)
Holley: Who could have done this?
(Then the empire shows having multiple kongs and krakens there, while showing the glowing blue eyes of the villain)
???: *low growling*
(Then the screen shows Earl and Ruby running from Wart Dogs and leaping, and shows more like Buck's group exploring crystals and kaijus wrecking havoc.)
Mikey: The Simblings can't stop this on their own!
Holley: They won't be alone.
(The screen cuts to a ice area, where a golden glow appears and breaks out of the ice and then....)
Simon (Evolved Form): *Rises and roars loudly in his evolved form*
(The screen cuts back but showing the villain)
Skar King: *Moves out of the way*
(The leader then jumps down, causing a large ground shake)
Skar King: *Roars loudly*
(The screen shows him roaring at people in a beach area. The screen then cuts to Simon in his evolved form charging his atomic breath)
Earl: *roars*
Simon (Evolved Form): *fires his atomic breath*
(Then, the screen cuts one last time to Simon, Ruby & Earl bursting out of the ground and charging at the enemies while roaring loudly)
🎶Welcome to my world🎶
SIMON X RUBY: THE NEW EMPIRE
The offsprings of Major: *runs to the Buck's gang*
Mikey: Are those Baby Godzillas?!
The offsprings of Major: *roars and smiles a bit*
(The trailer ends here)
