Expressions Thumbnail
Added 2021-03-17 12:57:51 +0000 UTCHere's the thumbnail I've made for the expressions video I've uploaded recently. It's taken me a while to get back into the mood of spending time on thumbnails. This week that mood struck, and I came up with the little compilation above, and a few others I might share with you. This one features Jeff, my custom Genesis 3 character from Trundlewood.
I've rendered the four images in 1000x1000 and compiled them in Photoshop on a simple gradient background. The border around each image is a stroke and drop shadow combination to make each image look like a Polaroid.
I tend to spend way too much time on making thumbnails like these, but I enjoy the process too (well sometimes at least). With some videos this is easier than others, but in principle I try to sum up the whole video in a single picture. Think about this expressions video versus explaining features on the timeline. I still don't know what to show for that one π
The video will be live next week on YouTube, but you've probably already seen it in this Patreon post.
