Description
On the internet the book will always be judged by its cover. At least for the very first second. But today in our digital environment, that´s all you have, so you better make it count. As it´s getting harder and harder to catch your users´ attention, it is also getting more important to create unique, eye-catching thumbnail images for your content, be it a social media post, a blogpost, a YouTube video, and so on.
My name is Bertalan Köles, I´m an eLearning Designer. I design digital learning experiences that users can enjoy during the learning process. I use PowerPoint on a daily basis as one of my many tools for work and I like to share my knowledge, insights about it.
We can transfer thoughts, emotions, stories to anybody in the world, simply by having them to click on our content. Which is nice but people are also way too overloaded by different options. So how do they choose? Based on the cover and title. Great, but how do you create one?
Let´s face it: we don´t have time to master all those complex tools, software that will help you to design those thumbnails. Let´s cut the chase and make your learning curve as simple as possible, by using what you already KNOW: PowerPoint.
That´s right, PowerPoint can do for you everything that you need for an outstanding thumbnail image.
Many YouTube videos will only be clicked because of their appealing thumbnail, which most of the time is not even part of the actual video. Remember, you only have maximum a second to catch people´s attention online, therefore it´s worth the time to invest into creating an eye-catching thumbnail image.
In this course you will learn step by step how to do that simply using PowerPoint and the free Photoshop alternative, GIMP.

Hi there, my name is Bertalan Köles!
I´m an eLearning Designer, I design digital learning experiences daily, using multiple, very complex software programs but PowerPoint is still always on the list. I often share my knowledge about PowerPoint because this is a very underestimated, yet extremely powerful tool to create amazing stuff. It´s not a secret anymore, but I like to keep sharing this “secret”.
I help trainers, teachers, companies, institutions, corporate education professionals to take their eLearning to the next level.
My story in a nutshell:
Effective knowledge transfer has always excited me, already as a child, when I still didn´t even know what that is. Visualizing, structuring all kind of objects and trying to explain concepts, logical connections led me to become a Prezi software expert in 2014. Some years later it was inevitable that I transferred myself into an eLearning designer, trainer.
Technology has a lot to do with everything in my career. I started with analog trainings, analog tools as mind mapping, etc. Analog education has turned more and more into digital education, so today educational technology is my only focus in the Learning and Development industry. Should you be a person who is interested in eLearning in any fashion, I´m looking forward to welcoming you as my student.
