for a new series about iconic cars to the gran turismo series. Used contrasting colours. What are your thoughts?

I wouldn't use the black box on the left and top sides. There's a tackiness to it that will likely cause a viewer to overlook the video. Instead I'd have the image of the car be the full image and make the thumbnail from there so that the viewer immediately knows the subject of the video (the vroom vroom machine).

I'd also select a different font to use, from looking it up the Gran Turismo font is Helvetica 97 Black Condensed, I'd use either that or similar font to invoke a sense of familiarty with the viewer.
I'd also use a different colour, contrasting colours aren't always the best idea as the green looks out of place, maybe just sticking with the Gren Turismo white isn't such a bad idea?

Hope my insight helps :)
