VIDEO. TopTV on-air promo: 'Cracking the Maya Code' on Top History manages to make it sound mysterious.



TopTV showed a big range of on-air promos and trailers for upcoming specific programming across various channels, as well as themed programming across channel clusters, at the pay TV operator's first-ever programming preview in Cape Town last week held for journalists and TV writers.

I do not own the copyright to any of this; I just want to show what I consider beautiful work and last week asked permission to show a few of the on-air promos among the many which I personally consider to be great work and which deserves recognition.

Here is the third one I thought was good. This promo is for the documentary Cracking the Maya Code on Top History (TopTV 301). The promo was cut using the right bit of inserts and utilising the music effectively to creates mystery and build up suspense around this documentary,making you want to watch it.
