Thumbnail 4, in the skill’s Illustrated style
Thumbnail 4, in the skill’s Illustrated style: the creator from the photo as a stylised 3D character with dark wavy hair and black round glasses, surrounded by floating glowing app screens, with the words from Video.md. Reference (Video.md): # Video - **Title:** I built a whole app in one weekend with AI - **Promise:** A finished, working app built from scratch in one weekend with the help of AI - **Words:** 48 HOURS? - **Expression:** amazed, eyebrows raised, mouth open - **Thing to show:** the finished app glowing on a laptop screen, big and simple - **Colours:** electric yellow and black Reference (youtube-thumbnails SKILL.md): --- name: youtube-thumbnails description: Makes YouTube thumbnails from a creator's photo, one clear idea with a real expression and two to four words that read at phone size, in four distinct styles to pick from or A/B test. Use for YouTube thumbnails, Shorts covers and video covers. --- # YouTube thumbnails ## Read first Video.md for the title, the promise, the words, the expression and the thing to show; the creator's photo and anything else wired in. ## Every thumbnail - One idea that makes people curious about the video's promise, read in under a second at 160 px wide: the face, the thing, and at most four words. - The creator from the photo, kept exactly: the same face, features, skin tone, hair and glasses; only the expression changes, to the one in Video.md. Chest up and large (40 to 60% of the frame), eyes sharp, on one third of the frame, looking at the camera or at the thing. - The thing to show, big and simple on the other side: a product, a screen, a result, a before and after. - The words exactly as Video.md spells them, in a heavy, clean sans-serif, two lines at most, in the space beside the face, never over it. Nothing else written anywhere: no captions, interface text, logos or watermarks unless Video.md asks. - Strong separation: a rim of light around the creator, a background darker or calmer than them, high contrast and rich colour. - The bottom-right corner kept clear: YouTube puts the video's length there. - For a Shorts cover (9:16): the face in the upper half, the words in the middle, the bottom fifth clear. ## The four styles Each keeps the same creator, idea and words, so they compare fairly. 1. Bold: a bright, saturated colour behind, a punchy key light, big words with a thick outline. 2. Cinematic: a real place from the video's world, low-key dramatic light, a film grade, the words in clean white. 3. Clean: one flat colour from Video.md, the creator cut out with a soft shadow, the thing beside them, lots of space, the fewest words. 4. Illustrated: the creator redrawn as a stylised 3D character (or in the wired style), still clearly them, in a playful scene, the words in the same art. ## Avoid A changed or prettified face, more than one idea, more than four words, small text, arrows and circles everywhere, clutter, misspelled words, and a promise the video doesn't keep.
