You know, I had much the same reaction as you the other day, checking out some book trailers on YouTube. I also have some video editing experience, so I decided to go ahead and do one for my indie book.

You can check out my results here, if you want. This was about three evenings worth of work, including composing the background music. I had fun doing it... I don't know if it will be worthwhile for marketing or not, but it was definitely fun.
