Playing with ChatGPT for thumbnails and this one has me laughing so hard because this is probably the expression on my face when I'm editing  - the ask was a cute pixar style black cat editing a video in a colorful room

Key Takeaways from Video Creator Class about Thumbnails with Doc Rock: 

  • 3 to 5 words MAX (but really 3 words or less) 

  • Don't say the same thing in the thumbnail and the title

  • Show your face! 

  • Simple, sexy, straightforward

🎉 December Schedule for the Video Creator Club 🎉

Hi Creators! Here’s the rundown for our December activities to keep you creating and connected as we wrap up the year:

🌟 Weekly Events

  • Accountability Call (Advanced Members): Mondays and/or Fridays at 11:00 AM PT. Link will be shared in the Accountability Channel.

  • Drop-In Call (Intermediate & Advanced Members): Thursdays at 4:00 PM PT. Link will be in the Drop-In Class Channel.

  • Content Creator Class (Open to everyone, replay for Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced Members only): Thursdays at 2:00 PM PT. We’re expanding beyond CapCut this month—come ready to level up your skills!

🚀 Challenges

  • 12 Days of Content Creation Challenge: Starts Tuesday, Dec 3rd with a kickoff livestream at 1:00 PM PT. The challenge runs from Dec 2 - Dec 19 (yes, it’s technically more than 12 days—because life happens, and we’re building in room for makeup days and rest!).

  • Fast Action Challenges: Posted every Monday. The goal here is not to overthink—just make the video!

💤 Holiday Break
We will take the final week of the year off to recharge and gear up for an amazing 2025.

Let’s finish 2024 strong and set ourselves up for success in the new year! 💪
