Thumbnails for six channels
Concept thumbnails for made-up YouTube channels: tech, cooking, finance, travel, gaming, fitness
The brief
A thumbnail has one job: make the right viewer stop scrolling. Each niche has its own visual language, so each needs its own design.What I did
Six channels, six thumbnails. One idea per image in four words or fewer, a big readable face with a clear emotion, a cut-out with a clean outline, and one supporting visual that tells the story: an ad-versus-reality split, a before/after, a crashing chart, real gameplay with a health bar, the place itself, the dish as the hero. Built to stay readable at phone size.Style
Each niche speaks its own language: high-contrast tech blues, warm food oranges, finance dark mode, travel sunsets, gaming neon, gym lime.Concept work for made-up channels. The people are AI-generated and don't exist; the channels and claims are fictional.
