You can immediately change the scene or jump forward a second to just as you begin speaking.
Most of my videos I have a dumb look on my face at frame 1.
Tonight me and my big kid were watching a funny new anime as I was editing, and I randomly shot this clip of him.
No clue where turtle master came from, but it was perfect:
Frame 1 is the frame we chose.
Frame 2 and beyond was just as he was getting into Turtle mode.
Super silly. I loved it.
Use this hack to make your frame 1 look however you want, and when the video plays, it’ll instantly jump to the non flattering moment you won’t be stuck looking at as a thumbnail.
" I have come from a generation of turtles to become the turtle master. All right, now let me get a handsome smile right at the end. Just the, no. Okay, so I showed you the handsome face Boy, and then I changed over to the turtle master. It was a bait and switch. All I had to do was take one frame, one minute, little second, move it to the beginning of the video, and you saw the 14 year old mini me, my boy, Aiden, giving you the handsome smile first.
But then after that first frame passed, we went straight into Turtle Master. That is a hack. If you don't want to update your thumbnails on Twitter, just put the very first frame with you looking the way that you want to look. It will always display frame number one, beginning of your video and in your thumbnails by default, so you can hack the system by just chopping out that handsome smile.
Put that to the beginning and then turn into a turtle master. Okay, I'll see you more."
That's an interesting hack to create a different impression in the thumbnails by strategically selecting the first frame of your video. By placing the desired image at the beginning of your video and using that frame as the thumbnail, you can grab viewers' attention and potentially generate more clicks.
Thumbnail optimization is an important aspect of attracting viewers, as it serves as a visual representation of your video's content. By highlighting an engaging or intriguing image, you can entice people to click and watch your video.
However, it's also important to ensure that the content of your video aligns with the expectations set by the thumbnail. Providing valuable and relevant content to your audience is crucial for maintaining viewer trust and engagement.
Keep experimenting with different strategies to optimize your thumbnails and improve the visual appeal of your videos. Good luck, and I'll be here if you have any more questions. See you next time!
