Creating a Thumbnail for your Personal Video

Your video thumbnail is often the first audience touchpoint for your video, and we all know that first impressions last, so it's important to get it right. After you finish editing your video a thumbnail will be generated automatically, but you can always change it to a different frame or upload your own.

From the landing page editor, click on "Create thumbnail" on the video player and select between the three different options:

Static: Select any frame from your video to put your best face forward

Animation: Select a few seconds from your video to generate an animated GIF thumbnail that is sure to catch the viewers eye

Upload: Upload the perfect thumbnail from an image file on your computer
