Marketer / 4 Under 40 / Midjourney Expert / Novel brand & creative direction for brands who want to leverage AI

I believe creativity is curiosity with something to prove.

I’ve spent the last decade scaling B2B SaaS brands, driving $130M in marketing-sourced revenue, and leading teams through multiple product launches, all while maintaining my sanity. Along the way, I picked up a peer-nominated American Marketing Association 4 Under 40 Award (2023).

As a first-mover with Gen AI, I broke out on my own midway through 2023 to provide novel creative and brand direction for teams that wanted to leverage AI in their visual storytelling. 

Since then, I’ve partnered with clients like Marriott, Brooklyn Nets, Rebel Kitchen, Klar, Buddy, and Indiewalls, while offering AI creative guidance and education to brands like Meta, TikTok, Ogilvy, McCann, Google, and VaynerMedia.

The journey has been incredibly rewarding. It also reminded me of something essential: the magic of working toward a shared vision with a great team. That’s what brought me to Goldcast.

Goldcast is empathetically changing how marketers connect with decision-makers by creating AI-first tools and workflows that solve actual challenges.

I co-host Midjourney Fast Hours, a podcast for creatives using Gen AI who are navigating this new frontier of visual storytelling.

My superpowers: creativity, curiosity, Gen AI, content, brand, design, innovation, growth mindset

The secret sauce in AI image prompting?

I’ll tell you.

While most people prompt AI like they’re using a vending machine, the best creators are composing and directing.

They're thinking like this: 
Layering = mood and dimension
Focus = emotional control
Texture = tangibility
Film = nostalgia and imperfection
(a)Symmetry = tension and balance

Lazy prompting kills creativity.

Let’s unpack 5 creative levers that inject emotion, tension, and depth into any AI visual.

👉 I broke down each one visually in this post. Steal it for yourself.

Do less, create more, and increase ROI with AI.

AI is here...it’s evolving…and it’s not slowing down...BUT 

You don’t have the time to learn.
You don’t know how to harness it’s power.
And you don’t know how to leverage it in YOUR business.

That’s where WE come in.

We teach you...

How to use Ai in your business.

So you can... 

Do less...create more...and increase ROI with AI.

Wtf do we do?:
➡️ Corporate Training + Workshops.
➡️ Virtual Webinars.
➡️ Public Speaking.
➡️ Done-For-You Creative Services.

How We Work:
➡️ First we chat...so we can identify how you're using AI and where it can be leveraged.

➡️ Then, we'll build a custom plan tailored to your team and needs.

➡️ Then, we put everything into motion.

Let's chat.

Nano Banana Pro → Performance Tuning Cars.

Asked it to "pimp this ride"...it listened.

Testing NBP’s creativity + consistency.

(Img Workflow IN COMMENTS) 

PROCESS: 
01. Upload car image.
02. Ask for performance + style upgrades
03. Generate multiple angles
04. Ask for lifestyle images.
05. Animate first/last frame with Veo3.1
03. Stitch together.

TOOLS:
+ Workflow: Weavy
+ Img Gen: Nano Banana Pro
+ Vid Gen: Veo 3.1
+ Upscale + FPS Inc: Topaz
+ Music Gen: Suno

EX NANO PROMPT:
Keep the Subaru WRX in the exact position, perspective, and placement in the white studio environment. Modify the car to upgrade it - Making rally racing performance modifications with a wide body kit . Take it an extreme level of detail and craft. Label each performance modification you make to the exterior of the car to create a technical diagram. Upgrade the exterior branding and paint to represent Red Bull. Immaculately design the exterior making it a branding masterpiece of creativity mixed with bold expression. 
Design the infographic to be luxurious and sleek and branding. Be creative and intentional - the World Rally Championship is on the line.

EX VEO 3.1 PROMPT:
The car slowly transforms and morphs from top to bottom. As it settles, thin gold technical contour lines gradually draw themselves across the body, tracing the widebody kit, roof scoop, LED pods, skid plate, wing, gravel tires. Then simple gold text labels fade in beside each feature. Motion is smooth, precise, and graphic, like a premium 3D motion-design transition from stock → rally spec.

QUICK THOUGHTS:
+ Nano Pro is really powerful 
+ A significant consistency upgrade
+ 4k outputs also help consistency
+ Typically, upscaling loses fine details 
+ If you’re using keyframes…
+ You need img-consist. to avoid morphing
+ Veo3.1 can do some fun transitions
+ Prompting is more focused on trans. Motion.
+ Vs actual subject motion.

Again, not perfect…still micro issues. 
If you look close...you’ll find a ton.
Products/objects with less detail are easier.

Have fun.

Let’s rebuild Higgsfield’s Chrome Extension.

And UPGRADE it with Weavy.

(Full workflow link in COMMENTS).

PROCESS:
1. Use Higgsfield's chrome extension
2. Extract prompt in Higgsfield Soul
3. Build prompt formula in GPT
4. Build Weavy workflow 
5. Test multiple image gens with 1 click.

HF’ CHROM EXTENSION:
+ Their extension allows you to…
+ Take any image on the internet
+ And create a “replicate” in HF Soul.
+ It’s essentially a system prompt w an img ref
+ The images will not be 1:1 
+ But it’s a way to break down aesthetic

UPGRADES:
+ Instead of getting (4) HF outputs
+ We’ll get 7 outputs from diff generators
+ Utilizing the same prompt structure as HF
+ Building in Weavy..means more options 

QUICK THOUGHTS:
+ The system prompt is most important
+ It will scan + analyze the input image
+ Create a structured prompt for that img
+ Run that prompt to (7) img generators.
+ So you can test different options

CONTEXT:
+ I don’t like to recreate real images.
+ I like to break them down into pieces
+ So I can learn different tokens/visual aesthetics
+ I wouldn’t use this for any professional project
+ But if you like an aesthetic / art-direction
+ It’s a great tool to understand things like…
+ Composition/Lighting/Perspectives/etc

Also, Higgsfield has been annoying lately.

So we’ll just mimic one of their products.

Have fun.

(1) Image → (18) Angles → (1) Click.

Weavy + Qwen Edit Multi-Angle.

No prompt necessary.

It’s not perfect…but interesting.

(Full workflow in COMMENTS)

PROCESS:
01. Import Qwen Edit Multiview LORA from Replicate. 
02. Add an input node + upload image.
03. Duplicate a bunch of Qwen nodes
04. Vary angles and perspectives. 
05. Generate.

QWEN EDIT MULTIVIEW LORA:
+ Allows you edit a single image
+ And change perspective 
+ With rotation or camera tilt

QWEN QUICK THOUGHTS:
+ This is good for quick changes
+ Rather than major changes 
+ You will lose resolution quality with Qwen
+ Typically outputs at 720p
+ Needs upscaling after the fact.
+ Will have minor errors with product 
+ But it offers more control of composition
+ Seems to be better with characters 
+ Gen time is very fast 

WORKFLOW THOUGHTS:
+ Love to build these micro tools
+ Test the scaling capabilities
+ And see if this is something practical
+ It’s a better solution that text prompting
+ The image editor tools for micro angle changes
+ Or different perspective outcomes
+ It’s more straight-forward control

This is a not a perfect solution. 

But it’s where the tech is heading re. control. 

Have fun.
