AI Image Creation
Go from a visual brief to consistent generated images while managing references, revisions, and commercial-use checks.
For Designers, marketers, and creators
6 original lessons on ToolDix, roughly 96 minutes end to end
Start the courseCourse outline
- 1Turn a Visual Brief Into Image DirectionsSeparate the four layers of an image brief, diagnose which layer a bad result actually failed at, and review generations on four axes so iteration converges instead of looping through adjectives.Beginner16 min
- 2Keep AI Image Iterations ConsistentLock the variables that make a set read as a set, change exactly one thing per round so each result teaches you something, and select against the group rather than picking individual favourites.Intermediate16 min
- 3Choose Between Generating, Editing, and Controlling an ImageDecide whether a task needs text-to-image, image-to-image, inpainting, or an explicit control signal, and understand what denoise strength is actually trading away.Intermediate16 min
- 4Diagnose and Fix Common Image FailuresSort generated-image defects into the four causes that have genuinely different fixes, and stop paying for reruns that could never have solved the problem.Intermediate17 min
- 5Upscale and Finish a Generated ImageTake a good generation to delivery resolution without inventing detail you did not ask for, and run the finishing passes that separate a demo image from a usable one.Intermediate16 min
- 6Clear Rights Before Publishing a Generated ImageWork through the four independent questions that decide whether a generated image can be published, and record the provenance that makes the answer checkable later.Intermediate15 min
