What to study

Curiosity Gap

The title promises Hollywood camera tricks, then the inset shows a s'more on a metal rig. Those two things should not sit in one video. His stunned face confirms something strange is going on, and the only way to close the gap is to click.

How the packaging works
Title

The title sets a big serious frame, Hollywood-level camera technique.

Thumbnail

The thumbnail drops a s'more on a rig into that frame, which makes no sense yet.

Remix this

Use this when your topic hides a genuinely odd detail. Put the odd object in an inset next to your reaction and let the title frame the serious subject. The mismatch between the two does the pulling.
