Question, if you're trying to attract a new audience to a new channel. What's the sweet spot time limit you should stick to? Say you're vlogging a project that takes a long time to complete and you're including time lapses and some monologs releasing weekly videos. I am having a hard time with keeping the audience engaged in the video. Do people just want talking heads more then to see the work itself? Average view duration is low even though in my opinion it's high quality editing and video and audio.

[@mynameisrob_co_uk]

I literally doing that right now :)

[@learnthumbnails]

Thanks so much for having me on Jeven!

[@AVtothe7thpower]

Thank you both, this helped me as a new creator so much!

[@learnthumbnails]

@@AVtothe7thpower What are some of your biggest struggles at the moment?

[@AVtothe7thpower]

@@learnthumbnails definitely channel growth. Part of that is consistency but I just hired some editors to help me close the gap there and enable more space for me to grow

[@theroadhome_Liz_Summers]

Another new creator here. The thought to think about the thumbnail and then the storyline and also to limit text or at least not duplicate title ... especially helpful to me. I reviewed my "Home" feed to see if there was consistency in the thumbnails that persuaded me to click. I like the authentic, "this is the topic" and found my eye goes to a good/interesting photo AND the visible description. Thanks to both of you for this video.

[@ProPetPhotog]

Love how simplified you've both explained thumbs. It's a hot topic and can be overwhelming. Thanks!

[@iPhonedo]

That's a great thumbnail. It stood out so good!

[@learnthumbnails]

YOU stand out Faruk! 😍

[@claude.bussiere]

Thank you both for this video, it's very informative and I really like how you explained the relationship between the thumbnail and the title. 👍

[@mynameisrob_co_uk]

You are both creative and logical, I enjoy learning from you, thanks

[@PaulFeinberg]

This content was gold! Nice job with the collab! I fail in a lot of these areas. Good info!!

[@breakingcomfort91]

Really needed this right now. I have watched a 1000 hours just on thumbnails alone and this one really stands out! Time to go apply what you have taught!

[@lonceyscairnsfunfactswildlife]

Thanks guys helped me be mode focused overall 😊❤

[@54orbust]

[@gabe_fit11]

I’m wanting to start my vlog at college and I’m brand new to vlogging but I cannot decide between the DJI pocket 3 or the DJI action 4. I do value durability but the pocket 3 is compact and the picture quality is amazing so I cannot decide at all. Most of my vlogging is gonna be done indoors and outdoors and I just recently subscribed to adobe premiere pro which seems complex but I’m learning it a little day by day.

[@theknightspalace]

Thanks for this jeven

[@erdemulubas]

Thank you for the video, it was very informative

[@JevenDovey]

Glad it was helpful!

[@orlundoexplainsai]

Great video!

[@HairCutHarry]

Nice thumbnail ... definitely caught my attention! 😊

[@JamesBiggar]

I really struggle with thumbnails. Thanks!

[@AllThingsNele]

OMG! Thank you! I can do many things but Thumbnails & Titles just aren’t one of them!

[@kevgoes]

Good info on thumbs. Very beneficial advice.

[@JevenDovey]

Glad it was helpful!

[@JonnyKeeleyPhoto]

This was a great video BUT I went to his 'thumbnail channel' and it has one video with nothing to do with thumbnails, am I missing something?

[@poppypoppy2322]

helpful thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[@thebikeracer]

Am I the only one that don't find thumbnails that big a deal. I follow creators and not their thumbnails...

[@Shadow_Li]

this video is so freaing helpful

[@Veasnatripkh]

I uploaded short and long videos into one channel. The viewer rang on short rather than long. How do I solve this problem?

[@JevenDovey]

I removed my shorts and started a 2nd shorts channel. Shorts viewers aren't necessary the same as a long viewer. You can either keep both on the same channel and know that some viewers will only watch longform and some viewers will only watch short or you can split and create one longform channel and one shortform.

[@Veasnatripkh]

@@JevenDovey Thank you sir

[@CushArrue]

Great video. My thumbnails have definitely evolved. My aim is to make them relatable to people starting their fitness journey. Thanks For the video ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽any feedback from fellow commenters is appreciated
