### Who Is This For?

This is for anyone interested in exploring AI-aided creative workflows and moving beyond simple prompting. It is designed for:

• Designers, animators, and illustrators
• Creative directors and artists
• Marketers and students
• Aspiring curious creatives

✅ This is for you if:

• You take your craft seriously and realize AI is an engine, not a pilot.
• You are willing to put in the work to master a new discipline.
• You want to stay relevant in a market that is filtering out lazy AI users.

❌ This is NOT for you if:

• You aren't interested in the discipline required to master complex tools.

### Requirements

• Weavy Subscription: A paid subscription is recommended. (The free tier is available, but you may run out of credits during the session).
• A "Can-Do" Attitude: If you don't know it yet, you're ready to figure it out.

### Recommendations

• Prior experience with an AI tool like ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude is helpful.

### The 3-Hour Breakdown

1. The Right Approach for AI We don’t just "prompt and pray." AI's potential is only realized when combined with human creativity and intelligence. We will introduce Design Thinking in the context of AI to help you master the process, not just the output.
2. Tooling and Workflows How do you choose the right tool for the job? I will share my curated and tested list of tools, showing you how to build and test workflows that actually work.
3. Introduction to Weavy A deep dive into the Weavy platform, the node-based "Artistic Intelligence" canvas.
4. Project Kick-off You will start your own project on Miro. Whether you choose a project within your specific domain or follow our example brief, you’ll leave with the foundations of a real-world AI workflow.

### What You’ll Walk Away With:

• Clarity: A clear understanding of AI-driven creative workflows.
• Strategy: Methods for collaborating with AI and keeping up with the rapid pace of new tools.
• Execution: A solid plan for experimentation in your own work.
• Community: Access to a private Slack community for ongoing support.
