YouTube Thumbnails Editing in CapCut Mod (Trick)
Thumbnails are the first impression of your YouTube video—and let’s be honest, most people do judge a video by its cover. If you're looking to create eye-catching thumbnails using just your phone, the CapCut Mod APK can be your secret weapon. π
While CapCut is primarily a video editor, with a few tricks, you can use it to design high-quality, click-worthy thumbnails too—no need for Photoshop or Canva.
Here’s how to do it! π
π ️ Step 1: Start a Blank Project
-
Open CapCut Mod
-
Tap on “New Project”
-
Select any image or video (we’ll delete this later)
-
Add it to the timeline
✨ Trick:
Once on the timeline, delete the clip and leave the canvas blank. Now you have a clean space to work on your thumbnail.
π Step 2: Set the Right Thumbnail Dimensions
YouTube thumbnails should be:
-
Resolution: 1280 x 720 pixels
-
Aspect Ratio: 16:9
How to Set in CapCut:
-
Tap the “Format” option (bottom panel)
-
Select 16:9 aspect ratio
-
This gives you the exact frame size for a YouTube thumbnail π
πΈ Step 3: Add Your Thumbnail Background
Choose a clean or dramatic background:
-
Use a screenshot from your video
-
Upload a blurred game scene or background
-
Or use a colored gradient for a modern look
π₯ Pro Tip: Use Gaussian Blur (under Effects) to blur the background and make your subject pop.
π§ Step 4: Add Cutouts or Characters
Want to add your face, game character, or an object?
-
Tap Overlay > Add Overlay
-
Import your photo or PNG image
-
Use Background Remover (CapCut Mod unlocks this fully!)
-
Resize and position it creatively
Add a drop shadow or glow effect to make it stand out. π‘
π °️ Step 5: Add Bold Text
Thumbnails work best with short, bold words like:
-
“INSANE!”
-
“100% WIN”
-
“YOU WON’T BELIEVE THIS”
-
“NEW TRICK π₯”
How to Do It:
-
Tap Text > Add Text
-
Use bold, clean fonts (e.g., Mont, Luckiest Guy, or Impact)
-
Add stroke (outline) in white or black
-
Use drop shadow or glow for punchy contrast
Colorful text grabs attention—use red, yellow, or neon blue! π¨
π« Step 6: Use Effects and Emojis
CapCut’s effects can bring thumbnails to life!
Try:
-
Glow lines
-
Comic-style explosion overlays
-
Fire, lightning, or energy effects
-
π Emojis like π±π₯π―π€―
Drag and drop them like stickers—CapCut Mod gives you full access to premium effects for free.
π€ Step 7: Export as Image
CapCut is a video editor, but here's the trick:
π Trick to Save as Thumbnail:
-
Tap Export (top right corner)
-
Export a short 1-second video
-
Go to your gallery, open the video
-
Take a screenshot of the thumbnail frame
-
Crop it to fit the 1280x720 YouTube ratio
Voila! You’ve created a pro-level thumbnail using CapCut Mod. π§
