Shorts and Thumbnails

I just wanted to share a recent experience.

I have been creating long form video. Friday, I realized I could utilize my frontal views to create YouTube shorts. I went crazy. I created videos and thumbnails for the shorts. By Monday, I had 6 shorts. Monday night, I realized the thumbnails were poor quality. So, I attached them to a ChatGPT chat and ask for Photorealistic image. They looked fantastic. But Wednesday night, I reviewed my channel on the TV. The short thumbnails were cutting off the banner and Hooks. I worked to recreate the images with ChatGPT. I needed to leave the top empty and bring the Hook down into the Safe Zone. One of the major issues was GPT Image 2 kept placing the Text outside the side of the Safe Zone. We eventually had to strictly define the Pixel locations. By Thursday morning I had corrected it.

Please be careful when creating thumbnails.
