A good thumbnail is the difference between a video getting a thousand views versus getting a million views. And not just that, having consistent thumbnails like this will enhance the overall look of your channel and help you build your brand identity.

But creating a professional and attractive thumbnail for every video can take a lot of time and effort.

So in this video, I'm going to show you how you can use AI and create amazing thumbnails like these in just a few minutes.

The exciting part is we will even generate the character using AI. We will be able to make this character do anything we want: different poses, expressions, actions, anything.

This way, you won't need to bother taking multiple photos of yourself or hiring a graphic designer. Sounds interesting, right? So I'm Brand for Website Learners, and let's get started.

To make YouTube thumbnails with AI, we are going to do three simple steps. So let's start with step one, which is to create our AI character.

So first, we're going to create our AI character for our thumbnail and then use it to create the thumbnails. So click the link in the description, and it will take you to this page.

To start using this tool, we need to sign up. Now click here and sign up with your Google account.

Now, to create an AI character, we need to train the AI by uploading some photos of the person we want the character to look like. So to do that, click Create Your AI Actor, and here you can see that you can only train one AI actor for free.

Now click Upload Photos, select the gender, age, and give a name for the character.

Then here, you need to upload at least 10 high-quality pictures of the person who the AI character has to look like.

And here you can check the type of pictures that you have to upload. Make sure this person's face is very clear, with different backgrounds, angles, facial expressions, et cetera.

Also, avoid pictures like these. This way, the AI will train better and give better results. So, to upload, click here, select the images, and click upload.

Once you've uploaded the images, click start training, and as you can see, our AI character is ready. Now, if you go to Image Studio, you can see how the AI character looks in different images.

Okay, once you've created the character, now let's say you want this AI character to show specific postures or reactions that are needed for your thumbnail, right?

Now, you can see these are the random images generated by the AI. To get images suitable for your thumbnail, let's move on to the second step, which is to create new images for the AI character.

To create a new image, click create new image here, select the type of image as general, so we get a wide shot of the character looking at different angles, and then select the image size.

Another cool feature we have here is director mode.

With this, you can set the character's position and the placements as you like, so you can try this out if you want.

For now, I'm going to create a normal image. So, next, here type portrait of and click here, select your character. Now, here you need to enter what image you want to generate.

You can describe the character, the dress, what the character needs to be doing in the image, whether it's a type of a pose or expression that you need, et cetera.

So, I'm going to enter that. Then click Add Style. Now, check out all these options, then select the style of the image you want and click Generate.

As you can see, we've got some really cool images. To download the one you like, just click on it, right click, click Save Image As.

Go here, select all the files, rename the file if you want, then make sure you add .PNG at the end and save it.

All right, now the AI character images are ready, but you must have noticed this watermark on the image, which doesn't look good.

So, to remove it, let's go to WatermarkRemover.io and just drag and drop the image here. And as you can see, the watermark is removed instantly.

So, let's click here and download it. Now, to create the thumbnail, we only need the character without the background. So, to remove this background, let's go to remove.

bg, drag and drop the image here, and it's done. Just click here and download the image. We now have an image of our character that is free of any watermarks and background, which means we can now start creating a thumbnail by adding various background elements and text.

So, let's move on to the final step, which is to create our thumbnail.

To do this, just click the link in the description, and you'll be taken to this Canva website.

This is where we are going to create a thumbnail. So, first, sign in with your Google account. Once you're signed in, click here and search for YouTube thumbnails.

As you can see, there are various amazing thumbnails available. So, just click on the one you like and click here to customize it.

First, let's remove this image. So, click on it and click this delete icon. Now, go here, click uploads, and select our character's images without any background.

Now, to add it in this template, just click it, and then you can adjust the size like this. To change the position of these texts, just click on them and drag it to the position you want.

To edit this text, first, let's select it. Now, delete it. Now, add your text and then adjust its position.

If you want to change the font, you can do that from here and adjust the position of any extra elements that you want.

Now let's say you want to change this background. Click here, then go here and experiment with different colors. Once you're happy with the result, just go here, click download, again click download, and it's done.

As you can see, this thumbnail looks very eye-catching and attractive. Similarly, you can experiment with different AI characters and templates to create impactful thumbnails for your YouTube videos.
