Video series launch page template with a trailer and countdown

For a video series, podcast or documentary that has not premiered yet, when you want an audience who will turn up on day one. The demo is a made-up documentary series from southern Africa, on a dark page: one line about the show, the trailer, a countdown to episode one and a sign-up form.

Change the series name and the line about it first, saying what story viewers will follow. Swap in your trailer, set the countdown to your premiere, and write what the card says when it reaches zero. Make the newsletter description promise only episode emails, and update the button text to match.

A written column or newsletter fits The Chronicle template better. For a waitlist before an app or software launch, start from the Horizon Launch template.
