How to Make a Youtube Thumbnail // Tips + Tutorial
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 окт 2024
- It's finally here! My tutorial on how I think about, plan and create my thumbnails for all of my RUclips videos. Your thumbnail is honestly one of the most important parts of creating your video. If your thumbnail is not bright, attractive, and unique enough to catch the viewer's eye, your video will become unnoticed even if it's the best video ever. I tried my best 😅 to walk you through my process of how I put my thumbnail together from editing on Lightroom, and Photoshop, to putting together the thumbnail in Illustrator.
I have a subscription for Adobe Creative Cloud on a student subscription, so if you are a student you should definitely take advantage of that discount 😊

QUEEN OF ARTSY THUMBNAILS HAS BLESSED US WITH HER KNOWLEDGE 🤘🏽🥺
girl the way you blew up so fast i’m taking hella notes
i'm a new channel to! (needed a hobby in quarantine lol) I'll check out your channel:)
Same here
Me too!!!
Right she had 30k in 3 months she said!!!
ikr!
i agree planning thumbnails ahead is just as important as planning the video itself
I do photos for my thumbs long before my vid is captured. Screens from vids are never a good idea 🙂
Omg I literally just finished filming a video and was about to start on the thumbnail.
Great timing lmao. Thanks, kwane!!!! 👸
I am relaunching my YT and was JUST thinking about thumbnails so this is PERFECT! love your videos!!
To be honest, this lady has got a unique idea to hook her viewers for watching an entire video.
Just coming back to this video for a second time to thank you for making it! Still working on my thumbnail skills but it's already helped me so much and was so easy to follow. You're definitely one of my favorite RUclipsrs!!
YAAAAY OMG YOUR CHANNEL IS MONETIZED CONGRATS BOO❣️❣️❣️
your thumbnails are amazing! thank you algorithm for showing me your channel. I love it! 🖤
I gonna say I fall in love with this video so much. Keep it up, Alia.
TH@NK YOU so MUCH! My thumbnails are now 💯%🔥!
If anyone is wondering how Alia made the outline of herself more rounder *@**11:28** (simply select the outline and press CTRL)* _discovered that through a bit of trial and error_ 😜
ALSO, this wasn't touch on😟 But to *EXPORT* your image out of Ai, I found that going to _File, Export, Save for Web (Legacy)_ then change the settings from GiF to JPEG. Hit "Save" and you're done!
Other than that, you did great Alia! Rock on! 🤟
Wow, Adobe and Photoshop is the new wave for RUclips editing at this point. Too bad I am accustom for Canva right now. Maybe in the near future I will switch🤔💯
Not me watching the whole video knowing damn well I don’t have any of these programs 😭 lmao
I’m obsessed with your editing and thumbnails! Goals! ❤️❤️❤️
Working on it💪
since planning my thumbnails in advance (while filming) biggest game changer for me
What a bright and joyful thumbnail, so are you!🤩
Your video literally pushed me to finally publish my first RUclips video (with a pretty good thumbnail imo)!!! thanks so much.
Same reason why I’m trying to invest on an iPad. I know its not a must have - it’s still ⭐️possible⭐️ on other devices. But I do think having one helps out a lot with photoshop & illustrator. Thanks for the tips 🖤 I love your thumbnails! ✨
putting effort into your thumbnails absolutely works! people click solely based on that & the title
i just started and this is what ive been WAITING FOR! thank you :)
These are such great tips that I will use to make my thumbnails and hopefully my channel will grow!! I agree, it is good to see a community of creators in your comments!

YESSSSSSS (kind of) LMAOOOOO😂‼️I am creative to an extent when it comes to editing.
Alia you’re literally the only RUclipsr who I watch through (the video) ALL THE WAY LOL
Hey :) i'm a graphic designer and here is a tip if you want to copy paste something and you want it to paste at the exact same place as the object that you are copying (so you dont need to move it on your own)
after copying an object (Cmd+C) when you want to paste it do : Cmd+Alt+shift+V
this was so helpful and i’m so glad i found this video
omggg the universe at it againnnnn this was legit something thats been on my mind! how to make cute thumbnails bc i feel like i have some solid videos but my thumbnails arent aesthetic enough or like eye catching (based off my views per impression) and i go on youtube for inspiration and guess whos video is the very first on my home page?? 😁😁😁
Ok i was just searching RUclips last night on how to edit good thumbnails. This is the vid i needed!
this vid was super helpful while i was trying to figure out how to make my first thumbnail! thank uuuu
Definitely needed this video!! Thank ju🥰🥰
Thanks for sharing the white outline detail, I’ve been trying to figure out how to do this for months 😜!
I love your tumbnails!! Thanks so much for sharing ^. ^
Yay! Been waiting for you to drop a thumbnail video 🖤
Yesssss! Loving your thumbnails!
To outline your body, just put the photo into photoshop, select subject, right click, stroke, and it will add a stroke to the selection! hope this helps!
Definitely going to be putting more time in creating great thumbnails!
This video was so great. It suits you to be doing content regarding how to grow on RUclips. Your videos are more interesting than most creators. Please make more
this video is amazing and is def making me want to invest in photoshop finalyyyy SOS
Im a graphic designer and I agree with you. I can create good enough thumbnails but always forget to take the photos so it makes it difficult. And to be honest, I spend little time on it until I realized how much it matters to RUclips viewers.
Thank you for this video! I filled up my notebook!
this video helped me so much with creating my most recent thumbnail 😭💕thank you thank you!!
Definitely will be using this tips and trying my hand at improving my thumbnail game! Thank you for this video! ❤️
This is like my fav account , Alia's video's r so helpfull and shes soooo pretty !
I LOVE THIS SMM hehe i needed help w creating attractive thumbnails
Awesome Alia! :) Some extra tips that can help in Illustrator:
• To copy and paste in the same place you just cmd + c (copy) and cmd + f (paste in place).
• To use the pen already making curves you just hole and the pen tool pointer will change to an arrowhead. Then you can drag to set the slope of the curve segment and then release.
good advice girl!! I take like eight hours on my thumbnail normally but these were great tips
