Change Your Video Thumbnails

By default, when you upload videos to Thinkific, a still from the video will be set as the thumbnail image. This thumbnail will be what the student sees before they hit 'Play'.

Because this image is set at random, there's a chance it may not be what you're looking for.

You're not stuck with it, though! From your Asset Library, you can upload another image of your choice, meaning that your videos can be fully customized to match your business and your brand. 

Changing Thumbnails

  1. From your Admin Dashboard, select Products
  2. Select Asset Library
  3. Click on the video you want to update. 
  4. Expand the Video settings section. 
  5. Click the upload icon on the thumbnail image. 
  6. Follow the on-screen instructions to find and upload the image you'd like to use, then select Save.

Have fun making your videos look better than ever!
