Thumbnail creation 🖼️│Debora

"Can you design me some thumbnails?"



I stumbled upon Debora early 2021 via LinkedIn. She is a business, life improvement and relationship coach and was my first recurring client. I started working with as full-time video editor first and foremost but also, as her thumbnail desginer! 🖼️



Thumbnail for her YouTube video: Mise au point. (rupture, polyamour, BDSM, projet s*xe ...)





The process was pretty clear cut:

• Use a screenshot of her face, unless specified otherwise,
• Add a tagline/title,
• Create an interesting background and add elements related to the video,
• Export and send!

Once I got used to it, I was producing multiple iterations for a video quite quickly! 💨



1st Iteration

2nd iteration (the one she chose)

3rd iteration

She will do the A/B testing by submitting the iterations to an Instagram Poll and see which one got more votes. 🗳️ The most appreciated one will be the thumbnail chosen!

I still sent her all the iterations in case she wanted to change the thumbnail at any point. ✨
