Hello MrBeast team!

I am very interested in your opening for a Thumbnail Designer! I am proficient in Photoshop, I have a background in Storyboarding and I love the idea of working on capturing the essence of a different story per video. 

I am familiar with the youtube space and I have always loved an eye-catching thumbnail. With my background in animation and storyboarding, I can work fast and loose to convey my ideas, I can hand draw concepts or photobash with ease, and I have an eye for appealing design and composition. I’m an extrovert who loves to learn, and having fun and communicating with my team to make the best design we can is at the forefront of my process.

I have 10 years of experience with Photoshop, as it is my main program for animation. I have done photo manipulation as a hobby for funny birthday cards for years, and would like to hone those skills in a professional environment! I am good at colour editing photos to ensure skin tones match new bodies and that the light source looks believable. I have basic knowledge of Blender and use it regularly in my storyboards to aid in background camera movements. 

Thank you for taking the time to look through this curated page. I would love to work with you!

This quick rough example took about an hour, taking screenshots from the internet.

With my background in animation, I’m able to make loose and clear drawings quickly, streamlining the ideas stage. I can also mock up quick 3D backgrounds to play with perspective!

While my photo manipulation has mostly been a hobby, I know Photoshop, I know what makes a striking thumbnail, and I know colour!
