Creative direction defines the image to pursue
Keeping AI campaign imagery on brand starts with imagining a specific picture that serves the campaign, rather than asking a generator for an attractive image. The image-making approach described in "Powered by imagination" treats human creativity as the starting point: the creator visualises an image, then works out how to generate it in the brand's style. For UST's microsite covering AI services, solutions and platforms, the creative team used Midjourney to direct realistic yet engaging scenarios in healthcare and manufacturing, areas described as difficult to demonstrate visually. The practical lesson is to give generation a clear visual intention and campaign purpose. Prompts then become a means of pursuing that intention, not a substitute for deciding what the image should communicate.
