(electric music) 2 2
Narrarator: I find that using cartoons or illustrations, 3 3
simplistic ones on your thumbnails works exceptionally well. 4 4
Let's do that right now. 5 5
So, what we're gonna do is we're gonna insert 6 6
an image, here, which is, of course, attached 7 7
to this lecture for ya. 8 8
And it's called business woman with a rocket ship. 9 9
I love this one. 10 10
I love using rockets in a lot of my images and I get 11 11
my images from storyblocks.com. 12 12
And that's where I get my music as well 13 13
as my background videos if I have them. 14 14
Okay, so we'll make it roughly halfway across 15 15
that's good enough. 16 16
And then what we'll do is before we add the text 17 17
we'll add a background that will match the same color 18 18
that we have over there. 19 19
We'll set it to the back in a second. 20 20
So, in terms of the shape format what we'll do is we'll 21 21
say we don't want outline. 22 22
And for the fill, we're actually just gonna pick the same 23 23
color we have on the right hand side. 24 24
There we go. 25 25
Great. 26 26
And we'll bring this to the front, actually, 27 27
it doesn't even matter. 28 28
It just bleeds over perfectly. 29 29
Okay. 30 30
Now what we're gonna do is we're going to insert the font. 31 31
And so, the name of this blog, which aired a while back 32 32
is "When Should You Start your Business question mark". 33 33
So let's insert text. 34 34
Right here. 35 35
And we'll do it all in caps, as always. 36 36
When should you start your business, question mark. 37 37
And we'll make it very big. 38 38
So, I'll select the font here, go back to the home tab 39 39
and I'll just select 72 or so. 40 40
And before I change that anymore I'm gonna make it 41 41
helvetica, which is a slightly bigger font size. 42 42
Anyway, make it bold, okay. 43 43
And I think what I wanna do is just make the text centered. 44 44
That's fine. 45 45
And in terms of the color we can match the color 46 46
to what we have over here. 47 47
So, what I might do is maybe I'll make it white 48 48
with a purple outline. 49 49
Let's see how that looks. 50 50
So, font color, I'll go to more colors select 51 51
this same, white shade here. 52 52
And, obviously, you can't see it that well so we 53 53
have to add an outline. 54 54
And we'll add a purple outline. 55 55
Right click, format shape and text options. 56 56
Text outline. 57 57
Solid line. 58 58
And the color we're going to use is we are going to grab 59 59
that purple. 60 60
See how that looks. 61 61
And let's actually make it very thick. 62 62
Okay, it looks all right. 63 63
And then what we'll do is let's go and let's add a shadow. 64 64
Like that. 65 65
That looks decent. 66 66
Looks decent, okay, great. 67 67
And let's scroll back out see if we can see it okay. 68 68
It's fine, a little tricky to read. 69 69
I want to change that around a bit, actually. 70 70
I think what I wanna do is make the outline size 71 71
a little bit smaller. 72 72
Yeah, I like that better. 73 73
That's got a nice pop to it. 74 74
Okay, great. 75 75
And, let's make sure, that this bleeds 76 76
over the edge slightly. 77 77
Up and down arrows. 78 78
Good. 79 79
Okay, we're gonna do the same thing here. 80 80
Just make sure that it bleeds over. 81 81
It won't matter when we export the image. 82 82
All right, now let's export it. 83 83
And we will save it as a jpeg. 84 84
J-P-G. 85 85
Save. 86 86
We'll go back to see if the image size is good, 87 87
that the image quality is good enough. 88 88
Let's go over here. 89 89
Open this up. 90 90
It's good. 91 91
Great. 92 92
Oh, I forgot to check the image size. 93 93
Image size is 137k. 94 94
We're laughing, it's really small. 95 95
It's perfect. 96 96
Great, and again all these images are attached 97 97
to this lecture. 98 98
And you have questions, please let me know. 99 99
Thanks.
