Learn to Control AI like a Creative Director

The AI Creative Director is a practical, step-by-step system for experienced creatives who want to produce consistent, high-quality, client-ready work with AI, without compromising on their taste or standards.

This curriculum is designed to retrain how you approach bringing generative AI into your work as a creative, going beyond just tips and prompts in this rapidly evolving landscape. Each module builds judgment, vision, process, and a repertoire of best practices so you can feel confident that you’re building lasting skills that won’t be obsolete in six months, or six years.

If you're tired of feeling overwhelmed, left behind, or bad at AI, this course is for you.

If you've already bought the pre-sale, your email will automatically be added and you will get access to the course on the 6th.

What you’ll learn

Your Creative Director–Level AI Curriculum

  • Learn how to clearly define what you’re trying to make so the model isn’t guessing, and your outputs stop feeling random or reactive.

  • Learn how to source, curate, and deploy aesthetic references so AI understands mood, structure, and taste without over-prompting.

  • Understand when to use Midjourney, Nano Banana, or other tools based on the aesthetic, realism, and level of control you need.

  • Learn a calm, repeatable process for diagnosing what’s wrong, deciding what to change, and knowing when to stop tweaking.

  • Develop a system that produces cohesive visuals on purpose, not lucky one-offs you can’t recreate.

  • The best models and tools like Flora, Higgsfield, Midjourney, and Nano Banana

  • How to make images look real, for product photography, editorial shoots, and consistent characters

  • Moodboarding and the creative skills that actually make you better at AI — not just prompts
