Thumbnail 1 : An Eerie Redesign

transforming an existing thumbnail into a more engaging and visually appealing one! 🎨✨

The original thumbnail had a traditional look with muted colors, which didn't quite capture the intrigue of the content.

The redesigned thumbnail focuses on creating a mysterious and captivating vibe, using bold text and a dramatic color scheme to draw viewers in. The updated design not only highlights the key elements of the story but also adds an eerie touch.

Thumbnail 2: A Fresh Redesign!

transforming an existing design into something captivating and engaging. 🎨✨

The original thumbnail was vibrant but lacked a compelling focal point and cohesive elements that could grab the viewer's attention effectively.

The redesigned thumbnail emphasizes bold typography, striking contrasts, and a clear central focus on the main subject. By enhancing the visual hierarchy and adding background elements that resonate with the content, the new design aims to captivate and engage viewers more effectively

Thumbnail 3: Elevating Engagement!

The third thumbnail redesign project! This time, I took an unengaging thumbnail and transformed it into a visually captivating and engaging design. 🎨✨

The original thumbnail was simple but lacked elements that could grab the viewer's attention. It didn't effectively communicate the video's content or create a sense of urgency to click.

The redesigned thumbnail now emphasizes the key message with bold, eye-catching text and vibrant colors. I added dynamic elements and a clear focal point that instantly conveys the video's purpose. The background and additional graphics help to create a more professional and polished look, making it far more engaging and likely to attract clicks.

Thumbnail 4: The Roblox IKEA Experience

The initial thumbnail was somewhat cluttered, with a mix of unrelated elements that made it hard to understand the video's content at a glance. The imagery was not cohesive, and the text did not provide a clear message.

The redesigned thumbnail focuses on a clean and cohesive look, featuring a bright and inviting image of the host and clear, relevant visuals like the IKEA logo and in-game characters. The use of a speech bubble and consistent color scheme improves clarity and visual appeal, making it immediately clear what the video is about.

1# THUMBNAIL 1 : A REDESIGN

I recently redesigned a thumbnail to enhance visual storytelling. The original design featured a split layout and contrasting elements.The new design focuses on personal growth with a unified theme, using a central contemplative figure, brain imagery, and side characters labeled “YOU” and “ALTEREGO” to narrate the transformation journey. The bold and direct messaging (“BE THE 1%” and “THIS IS WHAT THE 1% DO”) captures the content's essence, making it more engaging and visually appealing.

2# THUMBNAIL 2 : PHONE ADDICTION

The final thumbnail highlights the need to step away from social media by showing a cluttered Instagram feed and emphasizing the message "stop consuming CRAP." The bold text, contrasting colors, and red arrow make the message clear and attention-grabbing. This design effectively conveys the importance of reducing social media consumption to improve digital well-being

3# THUMBNAIL 3 : LUCID DREAMING

The thumbnail effectively captures the intrigue and allure of lucid dreaming with a combination of visual and textual elements. The central figure, seemingly awakening from a dream, with an eye mask and a curious expression, draws immediate attention. The background, adorned with birds and a dreamy mist, creates a surreal atmosphere that reinforces the theme. The bold text, "Control your DREAMS?", in a contrasting color, stands out and poses a compelling question, inviting viewers to explore the possibility of manipulating their dreamscapes. Overall, the design is visually engaging and clearly conveys the concept of lucid dreaming.
