In this example program I show you how to generate thumbnail pictures with the Pillow package for Python. These thumbnails you can use for Youtube videos.
The advantage with this method it that it is fast and consistent producing images with the same layout every time..

I used Google Fonts in this video, they are free to be used.
Full python script
in this example program I show you how to generate thumbnail pictures
to use for Youtube videos
the advantage with this method it that it is fast and consistent producing images
with the same layout every time..

Start by importing the required classes
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont
create Image object with the input image
image = Image.open('D:\\TestDoc\\Industrie.jpg') # or any other folder with your image
get the dimensions of the image ( used in the script to place the text)
width, height = image.size
initialise the drawing context with
the image object as background
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(image, 'RGBA')
create font objects with the font file and specify desired size
fontfile = 'D:\\TestDoc\\Comfortaa-Bold.ttf'
font = ImageFont.truetype(fontfile, size=80)
font1 = ImageFont.truetype(fontfile, size=70)
font2 = ImageFont.truetype(fontfile, size=50)
and the color of the font
colorFont = 'rgb(255, 255, 255)'
to get the average color of the image resize it to 1x1 pixel
this is done to get better contrast for the text
img2 = image.resize((1, 1))
get color of the pixel
pxcolor = img2.getpixel((0, 0))
create 3 variables for the RGB values
c1 = pxcolor[0]
c2 = pxcolor[1]
c3 = pxcolor[2]
define function drawmsg
def drawmsg(x,y,message,font,color,trans):
get the dimensions of the text
w, h = draw.textsize(message, font=font)
draw a rectangle behind the text to make it more stand out / higher contrast
draw.rectangle([(x-w/2-10, y+h/2+10), (x+w/2+10, y-h/2-5)], (c1, c2, c3, trans)) #111 159 237
put the text on the image
draw.text((x-w/2, y-h/2), message, fill=color, font=font)
call the drawmsg function 3 times to put in the descriptions
dt1 = drawmsg(width/2, 80,'PYTHON EXAMPLE PROGRAM',font,colorFont,0)
dt2 = drawmsg(width/2, height/4,'Thumbnail Generation with PILLOW',font1,colorFont,150)
dt3 = drawmsg(width/2, height - 100,'@SEQUENZE2',font2,colorFont,150)
at the end we need to save the image to a file
save the edited image
image.save('D:\\TestDoc\\Thumbnail_1.png')
save and run your script and show the result....
feel free to tweak the colors and fonts as you like,
