AI for Creative Effects

Facebooktwitterlinkedin

Today’s Question: Do you think we’ve gotten to the point that AI tools can be used to produce good creative effects that go beyond what is available in Photoshop?

Tim’s Quick Answer: Yes, absolutely. In fact, I’m so impressed with the results that are possible with AI that I’ll be presenting a session on the topic soon as part of my “Ultimate Live Learning” series.

More Detail: While Photoshop is remarkably powerful, it doesn’t offer very many creative filter effects that I consider to be very good. And while there are other software tools (such as Snap Art from Exposure Software) that provide great creative effect options, I’ve been quite impressed recently with what AI tools are able to provide in terms of creative effects.

The basic process of using AI for creative effects is quite simple. You just upload the source image to your preferred AI platform and then provide an explanation of exactly how you want that image to be processed. This can include a general description of the style you want to mimic, such as an oil painting versus watercolor image. You can also include examples in your prompt for guidance, such as to reference a specific painter or piece of work as inspiration.

I’m actually so excited about the possibilities for creative effects using AI platforms that I am putting together a presentation on the subject for my “Ultimate Live Learning” series. I’ll also have a presentation on Snap Art software, which also provides some great creative effects based on analog artistic tools.

These presentations are available exclusively to subscribers to my GreyLearning Ultimate Bundle, and will be presented over the course of the next couple of weeks. Recordings will also be available for anyone who isn’t able to attend the live presentation or who wants to review the material again at a later date.
