1 lloydsolutions Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Quote Adding a video Under the Gallery tab, from the Create a New Gig process, you can add a video to your Gig. You can either drag and drop or browse for a file on your computer. When a buyer searches the marketplace, the video you upload will appear as the Gig cover image. To adjust this thumbnail: While in Gig Edit mode > Gallery > Video > Edit Press Play > Pause the video on the desired frame > Set as preview > Close Note: To adjust your video's thumbnail, your video must be approved first. The above is from the Help Centre. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 ngtechandapps Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 it’s ok 🙂One way I like to make my videos is by using stock footage, text effects, keyframes(look it up it looks professional in video and is easy to make), and screen recorded footage. I put it all together in Final Cut Pro, or I am not sure what you can use for Windows. iMove works too but I don’t think you can do keyframes and certain effects. In the end though, it depends on your gig. If you have a voiceover gig, provide voice samples, or a legal gig like mine, I made a commercial as to why they need my gig for their business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 toplinestudios Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 We searched this question on forum too but didnt get any relevant answer. some days ago we added a new gig image and since then it has been on primary. But how are we supposed to get our gig * video* as primary and not the image now? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 imagination7413 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Your video will be primary in the thumbnail. If you mean in the gig itself, you might be able to fix this by removing the images, and re-uploading them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 kalita_lamba Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Hello! I’m new to Fiverr. I want my Video to show as primary but there is simply no option to do that, it seems. My image is being shown as primary which doesn’t help at all for a Video Editing gig like mine. Please help! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 helloscoopz Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 If you add a video, it automatically becomes the primary and that’s what you have right now.When you’re logged into your account, you wouldn’t see that as it is, click the preview public mode button on the profile page so you can see how others see your profile/gigs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 mario_scuderi Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 (edited) I would like to set a photo I have already uploaded as my gig’s primary image but even having selected it as primary (little star icon in the bottom left) my video thumbnail is still shown as the first thing clients see when viewing my gig. Is there any way to change this? Edited September 28, 2021 by mario_scuderi 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 aamirsohailkmas Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 The best way which I have figure out is, add your primary picture in your video and upload it. After publishing your gig, edit gig, and preview your video and pause at that point when your primary picture appear, it will set that video frame as gig picture. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 aggie_n Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I uploaded a video to my gig and it automatically became the main thumbnail that shows up in the search. For some reason, it just shows a black frame instead of the first frame of the video that has picture in it. However, when I go to my Profile, I can still see my gig with the cover photo that I originally picked before uploading the video. In my gig's settings, I can still see that my previous photo is selected as the "primary", yet the video is what everyone sees when searching for services.Does anyone know how to change it so that it doesn't show just black?

0 belukha Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Hi, everyone. I am an artist and I added videos to my gigs, but I realised on mobile, my gig thumbnails become the video's thumbnail. I want to set the primary photos as the gig thumbnail. But I couldn't find a way to do it. Is there a way to change the thumbnail to my primary photo back, or the only way would be adding primary photo to video an set that frame as the preview? Waiting for your answers. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
