Best Practices

Long-form Videos (16:9)

• Hook viewers early: First 5-10 seconds are critical for retention
• Consistent pacing: Maintain visual interest with scene changes every 5-10 seconds
• Clear structure: Use visual chapters and segment markers
• End screens: Design for YouTube's end screen overlay (last 20 seconds)
• Thumbnails: Create compelling 1280x720 thumbnails that stand out

YouTube Shorts (9:16)

• Vertical optimization: Design for full-screen mobile viewing
• Instant hook: Capture attention in the first 1-2 seconds
• Loop-friendly: Create seamless loops when possible
• Bold text: Use large, readable captions for sound-off viewing
• Keep it snappy: Even though 3 minutes is allowed, 30-60 seconds often performs best

Thumbnails

• High contrast: Use colors that pop against YouTube's white/dark UI
• Readable text: Limit to 3-5 words maximum
• Faces work: Expressive faces increase click-through rates
• Consistent branding: Maintain channel aesthetic across thumbnails
