0:37 is that me…? Thank you for the great work Tyler. I appreciate creators that help other creators. Let me know if I can provide any insights, would love to help on a video
It was an interesting idea to me that a thumbnail should stand out in dark mode. I was told before that thumbnails with black backgrounds are really good but it seems that in dark mode you need to make sure that you have some bright colors to help it pop. I guess the lesson from your video is to make a thumbnail that is appealing in both modes.
to add onto the quietest room thumbnail: usually, using the rule of 3rds, you would place your subject where the vertical and horizontal lines connect, as that is where your eyes usually go, but putting himself in the center creates a feeling of loneliness and uneasiness which adds onto the "uncomfortable" atmosphere of being inside a room so quiet for so long
That’s not the metric that even gets me the most. It’s “after an hour, he was almost ready to give up” and “after 8 whole hours. But was it even worth it?”
6:11 I’m guessing its the color green. Green is a great thumbnail color, much better than blue. Also, wearing all white wasn’t the greatest choice. The black clothes made him stand out better, as well as separated the white camera setup from his back. The angle of the camera setup is also better in the new version, giving the viewer an orthographic perspective of the setup. Easier to read whats going on. The text is smaller, which you would think is worse, but is actually easier to read than the larger text. With the big text, your eyes have to move slower than they are accustomed to when reading on a phone or computer screen. Finally, having more people in the thumbnail tells the viewer that he brought his contraption out in public, which he did. I’d rather see him wander around town in 3rd person and interact with people than wander around a hiking trail and possibly fall off a cliff.
I think ryan used the people photo thumbnail because its more personal with all the people probably judging him in the park, and having nothing to do with text size or dangerousness
This video makes me happy and sad at the same time. It’s great to see talented people be so invested in doing things as best as possible, but at the same time it’s sad to see that RUclips has changed in to a tactical battle for your attention…
What I don’t like with some of Ryan’s etc. thumbnails (including also mr beast), is when the thumbnail is not actually realistic of what happens in the video - or wildly exaggerated at least. But oh well.
Mark My Words, Tyler Fleischman will reach 100k subs in 2022 (currently on 1,4k subs)! This is probably one of the best RUclips education channel if not the best I've ever seen!
Another great video. Honestly amazing how much effort some people go through to get the perfect thumbnail. That diving example seems like it was almost more effort than the video itself
He could have taken so many shortcuts to get a thumbnail almost as good, but no, he went and did the real deal. Ryan is one of my favorite creators! Such an inspiration
After some thinking, here’s my take on why the cliff thumbnail wasn’t used: the cliff doesn’t appear in the video. If a viewer saw the thumbnail, clicked, and didn’t see Ryan walk even near a cliff, they’d be unsatisfied and think of it as clickbait
Tyler, you're super underrated creator and I really appreciate the help I'm trying to start a RUclips channel just like yours, you're big inspiration to me.
I’ve just seen your channel, great content! Over halfway to 1k! On the thumbnails, I would personally add more contrast to the pink to bring the words in white out a lot more. Have you ever thought about using a lime or yellow green with the pink? They are complimentary shades to pink.
I mostly have to say that it's an 75% chance whether or not creating thumbnails are going to increase the view count for your video while you can upload a certain snapshot that you took for the video that you're uploading in this platform
Amazing video. Learning what goes on with behind thumbnail really shows the effort the creator goes through to get does clicks. Great use of the end screen.
I can answer the question on the 3rd person thumbnail. He wanted to avoid clickbait. He kept it authentic and friendly. Upholding the connection between a stranger and the actual experiment.
i can tell youve been learning how to make videos for a while, present and past story lines sound effects pacing jcuts and talking about someone already estabilished a title and thumbnail that made me click instantly you sir are about to blow up teach me lol
5:53 I think the reason why the left thumbnail wasn’t used was because the right one stuck with what was actually in the video. See, if you get a recommendation with that kind of thumbnail, of course you’d want to see it happen in the video, right? But in the video, he never really did that. Since ppl can just skip into other parts of the video while having a chance to preview it, it’ll turn people off the video and move on with their day Having your thumbnails directly correlate to the video gives more impressions that “hey, this guy actually delivered and didn’t over-exaggerate it’s contents with the thumbnail”. It seems to be a great thing to do in the long run so that you’ll have a more solid fanbase. I mean, just look at MrBeast. Sure, his thumbnail and title may have been pretty exaggerated, but at least he delivered, even for a little bit (or maybe it’s because he just already had a huge follower count and it was just bound to happen. I’m not entirely sure lol). So yeah. TL;DR: Thumbnail may be more clickable, but what everyone hates more than Kids channels is clickbait.
For my BBQ channel, I recently bought a pack of orange nitrile gloves (instead of black) just for the thumbnail 😂 appreciate the knowledge you are sharing on this channel.
I know that there was a lot of detail Ryan out in his thumbnails (you might disagree on this) but i think that he’s like my english teacher analyzing things in the thumbnail that probably ryan didnt even realise putting in. Also have you noticed on Ryan’s penny challenge thumbnails, in the video his hair grows but in the thumbnails, it doesn’t, i thought he took the photos beforehand, or it could be something else, what do you think?
This is my first time watching you but can i ask why you are sitting outside on a bench in the middle of a mountainlandscape with snow all around you? Idk if u always do this but if not i love the randomness of the spot!
and barely anyone watched this… CONGRATS UR JUST SO AWESOME AND AMAZING WITH UR HARD WORD AND *less then 500K views on the vid* UR TOTALLY JUST SO AWESOME

This is killer content! Thanks for making this!
And love that you traveled to film this one, small details like that get noticed
It was fun to switch it up!
@@TylerF you are really underrated!

Yeah exactly. Was about to comment that!
Great insights! Congrats on the video 📈📈📈
Thanks Mike!
amazing video! everyone needs an orange jumpsuit clearly
Right?! 😂
Orange jumpsuits are the wave of the future. :)
Same, it’ll be a tax write off!
Didn't expect you to find here!
ORANGE AMONG US
This is so underrated! your one of my favourite ytbers now
Omg I LOVE this video dude! Awesome way of making it relatable, educational and entertaining in a smooth narrative. Great job man!!
So this is my shoutout?
What a great video! Just popped up on my home page and was an awesome watch. Thanks for the breakdown Tyler :)
"And for only 900$"
For a night
That’s not the metric that even gets me the most. It’s “after an hour, he was almost ready to give up” and “after 8 whole hours. But was it even worth it?”
Good job, I love when I see a before and after of a previosly unsuccesful thumbnail.

Honestly, I have seen many RUclipsr do the “hiding celebrities” concept way before Ryan Trahan did it but Ryan definitely started to make it trend
your storytelling is appreciable
I think ryan used the people photo thumbnail because its more personal with all the people probably judging him in the park, and having nothing to do with text size or dangerousness
Great video Tyler! I love getting to see the behind the scenes of Ryan’s RUclips thumbnail journey and how his thumbnails work for his CTR.
This video makes me happy and sad at the same time.
It’s great to see talented people be so invested in doing things as best as possible, but at the same time it’s sad to see that RUclips has changed in to a tactical battle for your attention…
That’s true, but I think there are still people out there who like simple content, no need to do crazy stuff
What I don’t like with some of Ryan’s etc. thumbnails (including also mr beast), is when the thumbnail is not actually realistic of what happens in the video - or wildly exaggerated at least. But oh well.
Are we going to ignore he is in the snow
Yes.
Yes.
Not anymore
I cant believe this was 2 years ago
Yo I'm A fan!
@@moab6217 thats whats up moab
Tyler, thank you for your excellent effort. I like creators who assist other creators.
You earned a subscriber. But I have to ask how’d you find out about the behind the scenes of ryan making his thumbnails
This is awesome stuff Tyler! Love the flow of your commentary & story telling. Super easy to follow! 🤙
In the quietest room thumbnail, he’s also wearing an orange jumpsuit suggesting that he’s imprisoned there
Bro Ryan needs to hire you I want to watch all those videos
What podcast did the underwater one come from
Mark My Words, Tyler Fleischman will reach 100k subs in 2022 (currently on 1,4k subs)! This is probably one of the best RUclips education channel if not the best I've ever seen!
Cool
Your channel has to be my favorite creator focused channel right now, keep up the great work 👑
So cool to hear! More on the way Armin! 🔥
It is a crime that you only have 1.3k subs. Your content quality is on part with RUclipsrs that have well over 100k subs.
You released my dopamine
😂
nice stuff! Gotta take some inspiration out of that! 😁
This video is too underrated, hope more people find it!
This is an amazing video. How did you get all this inside info about Ryan’s thumbnail process? Did you work with him?
Yeah, I'm wondering this too
Probably waveback machine. Some change their thumbnail within a few days.
4:58 why is that guy walking backwards? *in the bottom left*
thanks for the tips!!
This video felt like a 20 min video. So much content in it
bro, you've earned yourself a new sub. this video was so detailed yet simple. Ive taken a lot of valuable information. thank you
Another great video. Honestly amazing how much effort some people go through to get the perfect thumbnail. That diving example seems like it was almost more effort than the video itself
He could have taken so many shortcuts to get a thumbnail almost as good, but no, he went and did the real deal. Ryan is one of my favorite creators! Such an inspiration
Plus the world has this "masterpiece of a video". Wow what luck for everyone

Could be an answer!
I'm surprised by the amount of Subscribers you have, amazing content.
Keep up the good work!
1:14 bro what are you watching for there to be a pfp with gyats bro-
Tyler, you're super underrated creator and I really appreciate the help I'm trying to start a RUclips channel just like yours, you're big inspiration to me.
So thats why so many thumbnails have really bright colors, thanks!
Good story telling 🎉🎉🎉. Came from film booth
🎉
Haha I see my thumbnail at 1:15
Ayyye haha hey man 👋
big fan sir
One great video, Boss. Well analysed.
Much appreciated! 😁
So glad I came across your channel. I recognized you from Film Booth. This video is great!
Wow, finally a good video about thumnails
Damn, you’re consistently over performing in these videos, and making some bangers!!
Ryan is my fav youtuber
Damn, that's genuinely inspired me to grind really hard!
This is one of the best videos explaining Rayan's thumbnails and analyzing his video.Thank you so much for sharing! 😊
You are so much more informed as a human now
That shows how small details can change everything
How did you get his channel analytics and his draft thumbnails??
Nice vid Tyler. And you were mic'd in the opening shot with the snow background. 😀 How'd you get his data at 0:04?
I got a new lavalier microphone! And the data truth be told, it's a rough estimate.
@@TylerF Sound quality is great with the mic.
1:32 Damn , The Effort He Put in Just For The Thumbnail , Deserves All The Views And Reach
Third person thumbnail is dark so he made it brighter
Ive been using your advice on my thumbnails, they not perfect but getting better and better
Small improvements over time really add up!! I'm rooting for you 🙌
I’ve just seen your channel, great content! Over halfway to 1k! On the thumbnails, I would personally add more contrast to the pink to bring the words in white out a lot more. Have you ever thought about using a lime or yellow green with the pink? They are complimentary shades to pink.
@@stuartdoyle99 thanks for taking the time to have a look, really appreciate it. Ill have a look and try a few different colours see what works. 👍👍
Damn this is epic! Bro ur videos will blow up soon

Thank you! Yeah especially with larger creators, it's crazy how much really goes on behind the scenes
Yooo thanks for the nice vid I'm planning to below up. Soon u will be talking about me and how I brok yt
😎
Great video! Learning from experts like you!
bro just chilling in a mountain range.
the dedication is insane.
I’ve never seen a comment so early on an old(ish) video lmao
6:12 or maybe he liked the green background, similar to the penny thumbnail
Awesome as always! Could you make a video about the perfect profile picture? And why (or why not) it matters? :)
I can answer the question on the 3rd person thumbnail. He wanted to avoid clickbait. He kept it authentic and friendly. Upholding the connection between a stranger and the actual experiment.
Congrats you got hit by RUclips’s algorithm
Hit me like a ton of bricks lol
this is very well made my guy! I appreciate your hard work!
ur view in the back is so amazing!
this was a perfect video essay
Ooo boi, I’m excited for this one 🤤
Broo this video is amazing man. Such an incredible break down. Thank you
Thank you Mike! Love seeing you in the comments 😁 glad you liked it!
I was talking with my friend about creating thumbnails and this video popped up... creepy😨
Me too😮
Bro same
Mom: "stop making videos and touch snow!" Tyler fleischman: yes
This was amazing, I watched and rewatched and learnt
i can tell youve been learning how to make videos for a while,
present and past story lines
sound effects
pacing
jcuts
and talking about someone already estabilished
a title and thumbnail that made me click instantly
you sir are about to blow up
teach me lol
You know what's up 😎

this guy is a genius
there is so much about this I can't understand which is great. I love the challenge
Keep going dude Ur content is amazing
Thanks a ton!
Get this man 10k subs immediately!
We all need a Daniel in our life
underrated content!
also how did you get all this information?
A workshop he did mostly
even clickbait thumbnails follow composition rules - red circle: frames, arrows: leading lines
How did u get his draft thumbnails?
This is one of your best videos so far! Love it
So glad you think so! It's probably my favorite so far :)
Learned a whole lot! Thanks for keeping a very enjoyable pace 💥 lots of great info here. Saving!
Tyler Fleischman best thumbnailer on RUclips
😎
Of course, the penny series is next
WOW! The best video in this topic i've found!
For my BBQ channel, I recently bought a pack of orange nitrile gloves (instead of black) just for the thumbnail 😂 appreciate the knowledge you are sharing on this channel.
A next level move! Attention to detail like this will take you FAR
Thanks for the fun video on the youtube craft.
8 hours on a thumbnail and I thought I'd break RUclips when I made mine in 15 minutes 😂😂😂
I know that there was a lot of detail Ryan out in his thumbnails (you might disagree on this) but i think that he’s like my english teacher analyzing things in the thumbnail that probably ryan didnt even realise putting in.
Also have you noticed on Ryan’s penny challenge thumbnails, in the video his hair grows but in the thumbnails, it doesn’t, i thought he took the photos beforehand, or it could be something else, what do you think?
He 100% took all the photos before the series, confirmed it in an interview. Video coming soon.
As such a popular and professional youtuber I can confirm
u just got another sub, keep it up!
Man, your channel is Gold! Pro narrative, pro editing... you only lack pro suscribers count, but I know for a fact thats going to change soon :)
On the way 😎😂
