Hey friends, Chase here There’s a myth that quietly messes with a lot of us — especially if you’re a maker, builder, or artist. It’s the myth that creative fulfillment is something you find. That if you just get lucky enough… brave enough… talented enough… you’ll stumble into “the thing” and everything will click. But here’s what I want to remind you today: Your path isn’t discovered. It’s designed. Not as in “perfectly planned.” As... read more ›

Hey friends, Chase here Let’s talk about a part of the creative process that almost nobody celebrates — but everyone eventually meets. You start something because you feel alive doing it. There’s momentum. There’s curiosity. There’s possibility. And then… the middle shows up. The part where it’s not new anymore. The part where it’s not instantly rewarding. The part where you’re still not “there,” but you’re far enough in that turning back feels like quitting.... read more ›

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it centers on a truth most of us spend years trying to outgrow: playing it safe has a cost. Not just a financial cost. Not just an “I didn’t take the leap” cost. I’m talking about the hidden cost — the slow trade of your originality for approval, your curiosity for compliance, your honest voice for whatever feels least risky. A lot of... read more ›

Kling 3 is here, the followup to the popular Kling 2.6 AI video generation model. After spending the last 48 hours running it through the wringer, I’m ready to call it: this is arguably the most capable general-purpose video model available right now. I’d consider it state-of-the-art, overall. On par with Veo 3.1, and possibly better in some ways. But is it right for your workflow, and your budget? Let’s get into the details and... read more ›

Need to change the lighting in an image after you’ve shot it? Nano Banana Pro is surprisingly good at it. We're talking about results that are on par with a high-end retoucher, but accessible on your devices 24/7. The best part? If you're already using Nano Banana, you don’t need another subscription. You just need to know how to talk to it. But here’s the secret: getting the best results isn't about some fancy "secret... read more ›

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it centers on an idea that quietly changes everything once you see it: You don’t get paid first for the work you want to do next. You build it first. Most people wait for permission. They wait for a client, an investor, or an opportunity to show up before they start creating. But in my experience, it works the other way around. The... read more ›

Higgsfield just dropped this new feature that promises to turn your text prompts into motion graphics. It’s built in partnership with Anthropic (the folks behind Claude), and it seems to be leveraging the power of Remotion (although I'm not 100% sure about that), which has already generated a lot of buzz in the dev community. The promise? "Real-time" motion design control. Prompt, and you get polished motion graphics back. The reality? Well, I took it... read more ›

I’m a huge fan of Weavy. It’s arguably the best generative AI canvas app for creative professionals who want the power of a node-based system without the headache of managing a raw ComfyUI installation. But there is a very powerful function in Weavy that is barely documented. I love the product and the company, but their official documentation doesn't explain a lot of the critical details. So, I’m going to do it here. We’re talking... read more ›

Higgsfield AI just dropped a new app called Angles 2.0, which as you'd guess from the name allows you to create new angles from an existing image. Maybe you wish you’d stepped two feet to the left. Maybe you need a high-angle shot for a vertical social crop, but you only generated a wide eye-level frame... Angles 2.0 aims to solve that problem. I took it for a spin- here’s the breakdown of how it... read more ›

If you’re tired of tweaking a prompt or reference images, waiting for it to update, and repeating the cycle over and over, you’re going to be excited about Krea Realtime Edit. It’s exactly what it sounds like: a generative AI app that lets you create in real time. Honestly, I was skeptical at first - we've all seen tools that promise "instant" results but deliver a laggy mess. But after putting it through the paces... read more ›
