How To Use Meta AI “Style Reference Seed” (vs Midjourney)

If you've started using Meta's new AI image generator confusingly called Meta AI, you’ve probably noticed it's fast, free, and surprisingly powerful. But if you’re like me, you immediately clicked the "Aesthetics" panel and saw a blank text box: "Style Reference Seed." And as you may have noticed, there's no official documentation for this. No tooltip. No guide. This is, essentially, an undocumented feature. This is not an official, exhaustive guide. It's just my personal... read more ›

Mindset. Skillset. And the Hard Stuff You’re Avoiding.

Hey friends, Chase here This week I had back-to-back coaching calls with two different clients. One had the skillset but not the mindset. The other had the mindset but not the skillset. Different people, same roadblock — they were both stuck at the edge of their next level because they were avoiding the hard stuff. Here’s the truth most people don’t want to hear: You don’t level up because you “get discovered.” You level up... read more ›

How To Use Weavy’s “Prompt Concatenator” To Hack Your Creativity

Creative work is about exploration. It requires the freedom to try new ideas, make mistakes, and iterate until you find the perfect expression of your vision. When you work with standard text prompts, that process often feels rigid. You type a paragraph, wait for a result, and then have to rewrite the entire block of text just to change the lighting. It kills the flow. Weavy (aka Figma Weave) offers a different approach that brings... read more ›

Stable Diffusion vs. Midjourney: Which is better for creative pros?

AI image generation has moved beyond the novelty phase. It's no longer about creating weird, psychedelic images; it's a serious tool being integrated into professional creative workflows. For photographers, designers, and artists, this technology presents a new frontier of possibility. But with new tools come new choices, and the two biggest names in the game right now are Stable Diffusion and Midjourney. This isn't a debate about which one is "better." That's the wrong way... read more ›

CapCut For Creative Pros: Is It More Than “The TikTok Editor”?

The world of video is moving at a breakneck pace. If you've been in the game for a while, you know the cycle: new formats, new platforms, new demands from clients. Yesterday it was 4K cinematic edits; today it’s that, plus three different vertical cutdowns, captioned, delivered by end-of-day. The pressure for speed and volume is immense, and your old, trusted workflow might be starting to crack under the strain. You need tools that are... read more ›

Does Sora 2 Live Up To The Hype? Honest review for creative pros…

The world of generative AI is moving at a breakneck pace, and nowhere is the hype more intense than in video. We’ve all seen the mind-bending clips and futuristic demos. At the center of this storm is Sora, the text-to-video model and app from OpenAI. The demos are impressive, showcasing a level of realism and narrative understanding that feels like a quantum leap forward. But for a working creative professional, hype doesn't pay the bills.... read more ›

Weavy vs Flora: Which is better for creative pros?

The first wave of AI image generators was a revolution, but let’s be honest... it was a but of a slot machine. You’d feed the machine a prompt, pull the lever, and hope for a jackpot. It was fun for experimentation, but for professional, client-facing work? Forget it. You couldn’t control it, you couldn’t repeat it, and you couldn’t build a scalable workflow on top of it. That era is over. The industry is growing... read more ›

Weavy vs. Leonardo.ai: Which is better for creative pros? (Figma Weave)

The first wave of AI image generation was like a slot machine. You’d feed a prompt into a chat box, pull the lever, and hope for the best. It was fun, novel, and occasionally useful, but it was a clumsy fit for a professional creative workflow. The lack of precise control, the inability to iterate on specific parts of an image without rerolling the entire thing, and the constant app-switching created a massive tax on... read more ›

Sora 2: Does it live up to the hype?

The gold rush of AI video novelty is over. We’ve moved past the phase of surreal, morphing clips and unstable physics that filled social feeds. The market has matured, and the conversation is no longer about the simple act of generation. It's about integration. It's about workflow. The defining question for creative professionals closing out 2025 is not who can generate pixels, but who can integrate those pixels into professional non-linear editing (NLE) pipelines, 3D... read more ›

Beyond Microsoft Office: The New Creative Workflow

The search for Microsoft Office alternatives is the wrong search. For creative professionals, the game isn't about finding a cheaper word processor or a free version of PowerPoint. That’s thinking small. It’s looking for a replacement part for an engine that’s already obsolete. The real challenge, and the real opportunity, is to move beyond the entire concept of the static document and embrace the dynamic, AI-integrated workflows that define the future of creative work. It's... read more ›
