YouTube thumbnail, 16:9, one single photorealistic high-key photograph, BRIGHT daylight: a frozen valley in front of a huge pale-blue glacier ice wall, white snow, bright white sky, cold light-blue palette like a winter morning. The man from reference image 1 (same face, curly dark hair, short beard, dark olive-green overshirt over black t-shirt, plus an open dark parka) on the left, shouting excitedly at the camera, pulling a heavy iron chain with both hands. The chain leads to the giant firebird from reference image 2 on the right, the size of a house, wings half open with bright orange fire along the feathers, steam rising from melting snow. Bottom-left, huge bold extra-heavy text in two lines: "SEEDANCE 2.5" in vivid cyan-green and "IS A DIRECTOR" in solid white with a thick black outline. Only these words. Very bright exposure, crisp, vivid, professional YouTube thumbnail.
