by clicking on the camera icon and then
02:15
I'm gonna click again on the camera icon
02:17
and click on photo albums I'll choose
02:22
the image that I saved and right now
02:24
what I'm doing is I'm trying to find
02:27
like photo effects edit them so that the
02:32
photo or the image can become more
02:34
vibrant this is not going to be my
02:37
background image so I wanted to look
02:40
more vibrant and more appealing so that
02:44
it can be eye-catching if you know what
02:47
I mean you know if you know you know so
02:52
just going through all filters to make
02:54
sure that I find the perfect effect if
03:00
you are done with the editing you have
03:02
to click done and there you have it so
03:06
now I want to add some text to this
03:08
specific image you want to add some text
03:11
like what type of topic you are talking
03:14
about and right now I'm just typing what
03:17
I want to type cause I'm making these
03:20
thumbnails specifically for this video
03:23
how to make a thumbnail so that's what I
03:26
chose and that's what I'm doing right
03:29
now and right now I'm just going through
03:32
different colors to see which color like
03:36
feet which color looks good just for
03:41
this specific image and close with the
03:44
colors that are in the background
03:47
[Music]
04:05
and I hope that is easy for you to
04:08
understand right now I'm just trying to
04:10
adjust the text or the sentence trying
04:15
to see where it fits the most and when
04:17
it looks paste I mean you have to take
04:19
your time with your thumbnail because
04:21
that's the first thing that people are
04:23
gonna see that's what's gonna make
04:25
people want to click on your video so so
04:28
you want it to look good I want you to
04:31
look good enough for people to click on
04:32
it so right now I'm gonna save this
04:35
image and I'm gonna set this image and
04:39
leave the font or app say open pigs art
04:46
and click on the plus sign which is in
04:51
the middle which is gonna lead to
04:54
gallery or photo album
04:57
then you're gonna choose that same image
05:00
that you saved from photo app so what
05:03
I'm about to do is option now you don't
05:05
have to do this I'm gonna click on
05:07
sticker just to add some stickers to
05:10
this thumbnail so the good thing about
05:15
this is that it's a such engine where
05:17
you can search any stickers you want any
05:20
type of stickers you want so I
05:22
specifically searched for this one and I
05:26
wanted something more detailed but I
05:28
didn't find that so I just went with
05:30
this square or another square
05:33
rectangular foam yeah so you can just
05:38
choose any stick as you want so me I
05:40
just decided to go with this one but
05:42
maybe he was searching for a crown
05:44
you're searching something maybe you
05:47
were searching for something that is
05:49
specific just go ahead and type in your
05:52
keywords and the results will pop up
05:57
gives us what I can say about that
06:01
so I went through all the stickers and I
06:04
decided not to add any more to my to my
06:09
thumbnail I just didn't find them
06:12
interesting or I just didn't find them
06:16
interesting if you don't want to add
06:18
stickers like me when I click the cross
06:21
sign or the egg sign and go back and
06:23
choose add photo to take you straight to
06:27
your gallery and you will add any photo
06:30
you want pick up light down to your
06:33
right the second icon click on cut out
06:37
you want to cut out the background and
06:40
keep this photo of you as I'm basically
06:44
showing you in the video
06:46
[Music]
06:59
so when you are done cutting out the
07:02
puddle we just want to adjust it to any
07:06
place or of the thumbnail we want it to
07:10
be and right now I'm just trying to
07:13
bother it with a white line so that it
07:16
can stand out which I'm gonna show you
07:19
ahead on how to put our photos how to
07:23
edit them so that they have that white
07:26
border around them or any color of your
07:29
choice so if you're interested keep
07:32
watching right now I'm just trying to go
07:40
through different colors to see which
07:44
one fits the best and I'm just trying to
07:47
adjust the photo trying to see which
07:50
sides it fits the best and it looks the
07:53
best then I clicked on a dress just to
07:56
enhance the photo so that it can be more
07:58
outstanding so after I finish editing
08:04
the photo I decided to add more text I
08:08
started to add more text to the
08:11
thumbnail and you can add as much text
08:14
as you want
08:16
I just decided to go with two types of
08:20
text the title and explain and go into
08:26
more depth about what this video is
08:28
really about
08:46
so when I'm done I just try to adjust
08:49
the text wherever I want on the
08:53
thumbnail you want to put it in a place
08:55
way it will be easily seen so that you
08:58
want to also stroke it with other colors
09:03
like let's say for instance black so
09:05
that somebody will with a small phone
09:09
will be able to see what while they are
09:12
scrolling down they will be able to see
09:14
the thumbnail that were able to read
09:15
what's on there so you make sure that
09:18
even in a smaller screen you make sure
09:21
that it's readable
09:27
[Music]
09:36
[Music]
09:45
[Music]
10:13
right now I'm just trying to find
10:16
different stickers stickers that can fit
10:19
my thumbnail and I can give it a little
10:22
more personality
10:28
[Music]
10:33
