Pro tips
·

Start with the end in mind: what's the final output? Social post, presentation, video, print? This determines your resolution, aspect ratio, and tool chain.

·

Midjourney for initial concept → DALL-E for text overlays → Clipdrop for background removal → Canva for layout. This chain covers 90% of social media content needs.

·

For video: Midjourney stills → Runway animation → DaVinci Resolve editing → export. A complete video production pipeline with no camera.

·

Keep a swipe file of prompts that work. The best AI creative work comes from iterating on proven prompt structures, not starting from scratch each time.
