Making a review video on Zenless Zone Zero and the title is going to be something along the lines of:

"A Kitchen Nightmare? | A Full Review of Zenless Zone Zero."

or

"Is it burnt? | A full Review of Zenless Zone Zero."

I'm still workshopping that as well but I am going to be using a bunch of Kitchen Nightmare/Hell's kitchen jokes throughout the video

Did I cook on this thumbnail or is it burnt?

I like the Gordon Ramsey chef thing going on.

Given there's so many references to him in the video, I'd almost recommend swapping the face/body.

E.g. cute anime body + Gordon Ramseys face. Might be more recognisable.

You could even change the title to something like "Gordon Ramsey HATES This Chef" if you're using so many of his catchphrases.

Slightly clickbaitey, but I think it would still be relevant and people would continue to watch once in (as long as the gordon ramsey hooks are right there in the first few seconds of the video).


Another idea, you could go with the "Idiot Sandwich" meme and replace the face with your anime one 🙂

I don't pretend to be an expert, but just some ideas. Use as you see fit! 🙂

I'm workshopping a really dumb running gag where I compare the game to making mistakes with food and then it cuts to Gordon Ramsay stalking me like a Serial Killer while you can hear him screaming in the background

people also see your thumbnail from the left so it's best placed left or top

#

and the character i really like, but do they have a more angry face? will fit better

#

lastly, make the background just a bit darker so you can highlight the character and text in front

I gave the background a wee bit more contrast but this is actually nicer to look at flipped around

#

I'm going to choose to keep the anime girl as is because that's the logo for the game itself and I don't wanna lose that identity

just something to make it pop just a bit more than the background

Oh right! I did add a drop shadow in the first example but I forgot to change the direction when I swapped it to the other side, lmao
