Minimalist YouTube Thumbnail Design

I publish regular YouTube content and need a designer who can turn each episode’s key moment into a clean, eye-catching thumbnail. The look I’m after is minimalistic: plenty of negative space, a tight colour palette, and typography that pops without clutter. Every thumbnail should combine two core elements—short, punchy text overlay and a clear image pulled from (or representing) the video itself. I do not need icons or extra graphics; simplicity wins.

Workflow
• I’ll share the video link, title, and any time-stamped frames I like.
• You provide one primary thumbnail plus one alternative version for A/B testing.
• Revisions: up to two quick tweaks so we can keep publishing on schedule.

Deliverables
• 1280 × 720 px JPG or PNG at ≤2 MB
• Source file (PSD or layered PNG) so I can update text later if needed

Acceptance
A thumbnail is approved when the text is legible on both desktop and mobile preview and the overall look matches the channel’s current minimalist branding.
