My Strategy
  • Learn MidJourney, Microsoft AI, & Google Notebook
  • Use AI to prompt lighting set-ups, photoshoot mockups, posing ideas etc. 
  • Understand how to prompt AI from a technical standpoint and understand key wording and language 
  • Learn how to use AI for organizational purposes (file naming etc.)

How did I get there? Here’s my research on how it’s being used

AI is being used for efficient Client Approvals

Scenario 1: visual, used for innovativeness

Using Midjourney to create unique concepts, but numerous team revisions and feedback are done until met with the client’s standards. This allows more of a human touch to be involved in the campaign deliverables.

Scenario 2: visual, efficiency

Used to create deliverables under a tight budget and a three to four day timeline. Agency only repeats the process of prompting a few times before finalizing a fully AI generated deliverables.
