I have a close-up of the host holding a product and we need the thumbnail live by [deadline=10am tomorrow]. The thumbnail must read at a glance on small phones and point viewers to the hook — his surprised expression and the product. I can’t tell if the crop I’ve been trying loses the expression or buries the product; the producer will flag anything that looks like a clickbait crop. Tell me which crop tightens both face and product without cutting off essential details, what focal area to prioritize for eye-tracking, and one composition I must not use because it will confuse the thumb view.
