How to make a cover: three ways

You can hire a designer, build a cover yourself in a template editor (for example, Canva) or get it from a photo and description in OneKlick. No single way is best: the choice depends on the task.

When OneKlick fits

  • You need many covers quickly — one for each video.
  • You have no time or skills to build a cover by hand.
  • You need a cover from a real photo without complex graphics.

When another way is better

  • You need a brand style with an exact font and logo — a designer is better.
  • You need a layered layout accurate to the pixel — an editor is better.
  • You need a complex illustration or animation — a designer is better.

Common questions

Which way is best?

There is no universal answer. OneKlick is handier for regular covers without complex graphics, a designer for a brand style, an editor for exact manual assembly.

Which is cheaper?

Designer and editor prices depend on the contractor and plan. In OneKlick the first cover is free, then it costs 50 credits.

Can I refine the result in another editor?

Yes. Download the finished file and open it in any editor you like.
