Graphic design and GFX

YouTube thumbnails that earn the click, channel branding that holds together, and cover art and posters that carry a release, for creators, musicians, labels and brands.

Selected work

Thumbnails, cover art and posters.

YouTube thumbnails

Click-optimised thumbnails and channel sets.

How it works

From a brief to finished files.

  1. A brief or a reference

    A one-line idea or a rough reference is enough to start; a short call fills in the rest.

  2. A first version

    It comes back quickly, so the look is settled before the details.

  3. Revisions

    Refined together until it's right. If something isn't working, I'll say so and fix it.

  4. Final files

    Delivered at the sizes YouTube and streaming services ask for, in the formats agreed at the start.

Questions

Good to know before you get in touch.

What is GFX?

GFX is short for graphics. For YouTube channels and streamers it means the visual kit: thumbnails, banners, logos and other channel art. Designed as a set, it makes a channel recognisable at a glance.

Do you design full channel branding?

Yes: thumbnails, channel banners and logos, made to work together, from a single thumbnail to a full channel set.

Can you design cover art for a single or an album?

Yes: album covers, single art and key visuals for release campaigns, plus gig posters and event art.

How much do thumbnails and cover art cost?

Thumbnail and channel branding projects run $250 – $1,200, and posters and cover art $100 – $150, depending on scope, revisions and turnaround.

Which tools do you use?

Photoshop for most graphic work, and After Effects when a piece needs to move.
