Save referenceIdentity & Self-Relevance
Lots of gym-goers drink protein shakes, so 'Swap your protein shake' hits a habit they have. The whole-food smoothie looks creamy and appealing, so the swap doesn't feel like a sacrifice. The doctor's knowing smile hints the shake isn't as good as they think.
The long title stacks health terms people search for, anti-inflammatory, gut-friendly, no additives, while 'My' keeps it a doctor's personal routine rather than a lecture.
The huge text wraps round the doctor's head, and the shaker on the left and smoothie on the right follow reading order, from the old habit to the new one.
When you're offering a better version of something your audience uses daily, hold the old one and the new one side by side, old on the left. Tell them to swap it in plain words on the thumbnail.
Hold the old habit and its swap, one in each hand.
Apply this pattern to your next video.
Bring the reference into a packaging brief, then decide what your title and thumbnail should each communicate.
