Create your own Doctor Who trailer

The Emmy-nominated BBC Wales-produced Doctor Who website has launched a new and innovative tool that will allow users to create their very own Doctor Who footage. Trailer Maker will offer users the chance to mix a wealth of video clips, images, sound effects and music tracks together, to create their own special Doctor Who trail.

Over the coming weeks more clips and sounds will be added so that users can interact with the latest content from their favourite episodes from the current series.

After the huge success of the website’s BAFTA-nominated Comic Maker feature, it is hoped that the Trailer Maker will continue to inspire fans to let their creative juices flow.

“With nearly 40,000 comics already published from the Comic Maker feature we thought it was time we pushed things even further and offered fans a chance to get creative with video,” says website producer Rob Francis.

“Users of the site have always been incredibly imaginative and we’re extremely keen to encourage more of that creativity. Hopefully the Trailer Maker is something we can develop in the future to offer users many more exciting possibilities.”

The Trailer Maker is part of the redesigned Doctor Who website. For the past two series the website has consistently been one of the biggest BBC programme support websites on bbc.co.uk.

The trailers will be stored on the website for six months and given a unique code, so that users can show off and share their creations with friends and family.

Other highlights on the site include: the monster files, exclusive behind-the-scenes video, episode commentaries, fear forecast, quizzes, puzzles, screensavers and exclusive wallpapers.

During this series the Comic Maker will also be enhanced with a wealth of Series Four monsters and locations. There will also be brand new mini-adventures from series writers including James Moran, Keith Temple and Paul Cornell.

The Trailer Maker feature can be found at bbc.co.uk/doctorwho.
