I’m looking for a designer who can craft a visually striking, photo-realistic 3D thumbnail that will make my next YouTube video pop in the feed and boost click-throughs. The scene should feel tangible and dynamic, with depth, believable lighting, and polished color grading that stays true to YouTube’s recommended contrast levels. Please handle the full workflow—from concept sketches or mood-boards through modeling, texturing, and final retouch—so the end product is ready to upload at 1280 × 720 px. If you work in Blender, Cinema 4D, or another 3D package, that’s perfect; just include the source file along with a flattened PNG/JPEG (max 2 MB) so I can run quick A/B tests. Deliverables: • Final thumbnail in PNG/JPEG (1280 × 720, <2 MB) • Editable layered file (PSD or project file from your 3D tool) • Any fonts or texture assets that require licensing information I’ll provide the raw inspiration references and video title once we start, and I’m happy to give fast feedback on drafts to keep the process smooth.
