Ever wondered how to use AI for creating YouTube thumbnails that increase your clicks? Let's dive right into it! (00:00)
🎯 A good thumbnail has three elements:
The speaker's face 🙎♂️
A colorful background to grab attention 🌈
Short, relevant text 📝 (00:38)
😤 For me, shooting and editing images for thumbnails is tedious. So, AI to the rescue! Let's look at some examples I've created using AI. (01:18)
🔧 The tool I'm using is called Mid Journey, a fantastic AI image generation tool. To use it, you first upload an image, copy its link, and then apply the AI to it. (01:59)
📝 You need to use a prompt for the AI, which could be something like "Viking Warrior, bald, looking at the camera, ultra realistic 4K, AR space 16x9". (04:18)
⏳ Now, sit tight while Mid Journey creates the thumbnail for you. This may take a few moments. (04:57)
🔍 Let's review the AI-generated images. Do they look like me? Kind of, but not exactly. That's where face swapping comes into play. (05:46)
💡 So, the next step involves a face swap. I'll show you how to use a face swap app to get a better result. (06:33)
🚀 We've got some promising results here. So, we pick an image, upscale it, and perform a face swap on it. Now we have a thumbnail that includes an AI-generated background and my face! (07:21)
📝 Next, I'll show you how to add your own image to the thumbnail using the bot in your server. Remember, the image must be in JPEG format. (10:17)
👥 After adding our own image, we create another prompt for the AI. This time it includes a personal touch - my face. (12:03)
🖼️ With a bit of patience and a few tests, we eventually land on a thumbnail that we're happy with. It includes an AI-generated background and my face, making it both eye-catching and personalized. (13:51)
🔠 The final touch is adding some text to the thumbnail. We'll use Canva for this - an online tool for creating eye-catching designs. I'll go with the text "AI thumbnail", and for contrast, I'll add a white background for the text. (15:47)
📥 Once the design is finalized, we download the image and upload it to YouTube. Voila! You've got an AI-generated thumbnail that's bound to increase your clicks! (18:48)
