YouTube thumbnail, 16:9. The man in the second reference photo, keeping his face, hair and skin tone exactly, on the right, chest-up, black t-shirt, focused and confident expression looking at the camera, crisp rim light separating him from the background. Bold title text "BUILD APPS WITH AI" on the left in three lines, in a heavy condensed sans-serif with a thick dark outline, white and orange, about a third of the frame height, tight leading. Beside it, one large oversized black laptop showing the Kage page from the first reference, on raked zen sand with textured rocks, as in the third reference. Simple dark brown to orange gradient background with a warm glow. High contrast, saturated, sharp, readable at small size, bottom-right corner left clear, no other text. Reference (youtube-cover-ai-app-building SKILL.md): --- name: youtube-cover-ai-app-building description: Makes 16:9 YouTube covers for a creator talking about building web apps and products with AI, using the Kage laptop and Cinder phone zen-sand scene. Use for thumbnails of this video series. --- # YouTube cover: building apps with AI ## Inputs - Title: two to five words, rendered exactly, e.g. "BUILD APPS WITH AI", "$100K MRR WITH AI", "ONE PROMPT, ONE APP". - Subject: one visual only, the black laptop with the Kage page or the phone with the Cinder app, on raked zen sand with rocks. - Portrait: the man in the reference photo, black t-shirt. Keep his face, hair and skin tone exactly. ## Layout - 16:9, designed to read at 160 px wide. - His face takes the right 40 to 50% of the frame, cut at the chest, looking at the camera, expression fitting the title (excited, surprised, focused). - Title on the left in two or three lines, about a third of the height, heavy condensed sans-serif, tight leading. - Keep the bottom-right corner clear for the video length. ## Look - Dark brown to orange gradient background with a warm glow, matching the references; white and orange or yellow title with a thick dark outline. - Crisp rim light separating face from background. - Device visual bigger than natural, with the sand and rock texture kept. ## Avoid More than one idea, small or thin text, sentences, poster copy like "Now on iPhone & Mac", busy backgrounds, anything near the edges. ## Prompt template YouTube thumbnail, 16:9. The man in the reference photo, keeping his face, hair and skin tone exactly, on the right, chest-up, EXPRESSION, crisp rim light. Bold title text "TITLE" on the left in a heavy condensed sans-serif with a thick dark outline, COLOUR on COLOUR. Beside it, one large visual of DEVICE with the Kage or Cinder screen on raked zen sand. Simple dark-to-orange graphic background. High contrast, saturated, sharp, readable at small size, bottom-right corner left clear. Reference (Building web apps with AI from inspiration to distribution.md): # Business Update: $100K MRR Milestone - Reached $100K MRR, but revenue mix has shifted dramatically - Aura now represents only ~20% of revenue (down from majority) - Strategy is fundamentally different from before # Finding Inspiration and Product Ideas - Start with what you produce or use every day: identify what’s missing in your workflow - Tools used daily (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini, Figma, VS Code) are the best source of ideas - Avoid directly overlapping with big players; find your angle instead - Revisit old products: ask “how would I build this today?” - Shape (icon/illustration library) made ~$150K lifetime, built by hand; now fully reproducible with AI - Angle mockup tool: each mockup used to take 1 day Variation: Clean graphic take: flat saturated orange-to-dark-brown gradient with a bright sunrise-like glow behind his head. The man is cut out with a thin crisp white rim light, a slight smirk, and a hand lifted gently. The laptop sits low on the left on a tidy raked sand strip with one rock, and the title sits above it in huge white letters with orange shadow offset and a thick dark outline.
