The Only Disease You Can't Catch

What to study

Expectation Violation

A disease you cannot catch sounds impossible, and that broken rule is the hook. The image names smallpox over a photo that is hard to look away from. Naming it spoils nothing. It just moves the question from which disease to why.

How the packaging works
Title

The title makes a claim that breaks what everyone assumes about disease.

Thumbnail

The thumbnail names smallpox over an old photo that is hard to ignore.

Remix this

When your fact breaks a rule everyone assumes, put that clash in the title. You can reveal the subject in the image as long as the why stays inside the video.
