Project Description: Design a Click-Worthy Thumbnail That Hijacks Attention
Now it’s your turn to psychologically hijack the scroll.
Your project: Create a thumbnail using the principles you learned in this course — one that taps into curiosity, emotion, and visual triggers. The goal? Make people want to click before they even read the title.
Here’s what to include:
-
A YouTube thumbnail design using Canva (or any tool you like)
-
A short caption describing:
-
The emotional trigger you used (e.g., fear, desire, curiosity)
-
The visual techniques you applied (e.g., contrast, facial expression, bold text)
-
Tips for success:
-
Make sure your design works at small sizes (remember: mobile!)
-
Focus on 1 clear focal point
-
Don’t overthink — clickable beats pretty
Example Project:
Thumbnail Topic: “How I Lost $10,000 Overnight”
Trigger: Curiosity Shock
Visual: Zoomed-in shocked face bold red text blurred bank screenshot
Upload your finished thumbnail with your short caption — and check out your classmates' projects for inspiration!
