What are some tips for creating compelling video thumbnails?

Asked 2 years ago

I know that thumbnails are an important part of video marketing, much more than some people might think. After all, people will judge a book by its cover, and a thumbnail is a "cover" of a video...
So, do you have any suggestions or recommendations regarding video thumbnails? How do I make them draw attention?

Your thumbnail should be professionally designed and more than just a snapshot of the video. It's the first thing people will see and should convince them to click on it. To attract attention, apply contrasting colors, use whitespace and negative space, and also keep your thumbnails true to the video content and your brand. But don't overdo it.
