CREATIVE REVIEW · Workflow idea

Make a clear thumbnail without promising a scene, result, or person the video does not contain.

For work involving proposed video thumbnail images and their accompanying claims, start with a defined purpose and check the evidence before taking the next step. Prepare thumbnail concepts from approved creative direction and assets for an editor to inspect. A thumbnail can mislead viewers, misuse a likeness, or include protected artwork. Clear all references and image rights, verify that its claims match the video, avoid fabricated endorsements, and require the creator to approve the exact image and placement before release.
