By creating a Coverartwork you need to realize that Thousands of Eyes are watching it, over and over again. The Importancy to use this chance to create an Eyecatcher that creates awareness and attention. The Coverartwork needs to sting in the Eye and work from a thumbnail size up to Billboard size, while getting chased on the Highway of the Police…again, or on the toilette. Ad Videos are different and need to get the attention of the viewer and create a “Stop” attention in the first 2-4 seconds to pay attention and keep the focus on the Center. The Frame space should be Free because of the Links and Linings of each Social Media. Please take a look at the examples at our Video Library below. Keep in mind almost all Social-Medias support a vertical 9:16 form or a horizontal 16:9 format.
