Assets
Stills: Podcast:
Key Requirements
The two thumbnails must be completely different styles from each other
Both should clearly align with the existing brand, while introducing a fresh, evolved look
They should feel modern, premium, and highly intentional
One designed specifically to stand out in a YouTube feed and drive click-through rate
The other is a chance to show us your design skills, be creative and impress us with what you can create
Think of this as: What would the best podcast agency in the world deliver if they were re‑imagining this show’s thumbnails?
Your thumbnails should:
Feel industry‑leading in quality
Instantly grab attention at small sizes
Use hierarchy, contrast, composition, and typography intentionally
Feel confident, premium, and editorial, not templated
Show clear understanding of YouTube thumbnail psychology
We're less interested in following trends blindly, and more interested in taste, clarity, and originality within the brand.

Remote‑first & flexible working
Quarterly in‑person team meetups
