Assignment
Final Semester Assignment: Content Credentials + In-Class AI Experiments
Because this is the final week of the semester—and all of you have been consistently wonderful and diligent—this is a lighter assignment focused on ‘’‘Content Credentials’’’ and hands-on AI exploration in class.
Last week we did a brief overview of Content Credentials and introduced Adobe Firefly as we began discussing experimentation with AI-based stuff/tools.
What you need to do (3 things)
1) Apply Content Credentials to 5 illustrations + upload them
Pick ‘’‘five’’’ of your illustrations (at a decent resolution) and apply Adobe Content Credentials to each one: • Go here: Apply Content Credentials (Adobe) • Sign in (or create an account if needed) • Apply Content Credentials to ‘’‘five’’’ artworks • Download/export the ‘’‘credentialed’’’ versions • Upload the credentialed versions to the ‘’‘Google Drive folder for this week’’’ (linked below)
‘’‘Google Drive folder (upload here):’’’
2) Bring your laptop + iPad to class (charged)
Bring your ‘’‘laptop and optionally iPad’’’ to class and make sure both are charged.
In class: • We will look at a few AI tools/workflows • You’ll have time to try them yourself • We’ll talk through what’s useful, what’s not, and what this means for illustrators
3) Bring recent project files / “parts”
Bring some of your recent working materials so you can experiment with ‘‘your’’ own content: • recent project files (Illustrator / Photoshop / Fresco / Procreate) • sketches / WIPs • interesting “bits and pieces” (textures, studies, brushes, assets, etc.)
Checklist (what I should see in Drive)
• Five (5) credentialed images uploaded
