Use Video Thumbnail Maker in three steps
- 1
Open a video file you own.
- 2
Move the timeline to the frame you want and preview it.
- 3
Choose JPG or PNG, then save the thumbnail.
Choose a frame that remains clear at small size
A strong thumbnail has a clear subject, enough contrast and minimal motion blur. Frames during a fast camera movement often look soft when viewed as a still image.
Keep important details away from the edges if the thumbnail may be cropped by a platform or device.
A private local frame workflow
The browser reads the video you select, displays its timeline and draws the chosen frame to a canvas. The source file stays on your device during this process.
