Unlocking Creative Joy, One Week at a Time

Hey Reader,

The Creative Edge Today:
Human + AI in Sync

AI isn’t the enemy — it’s an amplifier. The creative edge comes from being a smarter, more human partner with AI.

That’s not just a theory — it’s what creative leaders are doing right now.

In my latest episode of Video Mojo, I talk with my long-time collaborator Vince Casalaina, a passionate documentary filmmaker with a story that matters… and a limited budget. 😁

By using just the right mix of AI tools (and with a little help from me), Vince was able to:

✅ Draft a meaningful story structure for his film
✅ Create visual assets that would have never been possible
✅ Move his film project forward in a way that amplifies the heart of his story

👀 Watch the Interview with Vince 👇

This is a clear, real-world example of human-AI symbiosis, where technology amplifies creativity instead of replacing it.

And if you’re a marketing professional, this is your signal.

AI isn’t just a productivity hack.

If you use it correctly, it’s a creative partner that can help you make better content faster while staying authentic and strategic.
