Arooj Khan.
Ideas with intention.

Start with the story.
Build around the idea.

My primary focus is YouTube thumbnail design and visual packaging. I work from the central emotion, tension or question in a video and use it to guide composition.

Photoshop compositing, retouching and finishing support the concept. The final image needs to communicate at a glance and hold up when it becomes a small frame in a crowded feed.

Alongside thumbnails, I create social media, advertising and selected graphic design work. AK Design Zone is also growing toward creative tools and a wider digital product ecosystem.
