AI CREATIVE SPECIALIST

Jaja Cortez

Creative direction.
Made visible with AI.

I create campaign images, static ads and video content for brands. My work combines creative direction, AI tools and hands-on editing—from the first concept to the finished asset.

CREATIVE VARIATIONS

One brief.
Three creative approaches.

The brief
Make SUNSHIFT the bright, fizzy companion to a weekday lunch. Keep the product and occasion consistent; vary the hook and visual treatment.

Headline + occasion

Lead with a soda craving. Show the can beside lunch so the use occasion is immediately clear.

Lifestyle + social treatment

Show the same lunch occasion through a handheld product shot and a social-style layout.

Note + product

Turn the lunch message into a handwritten reminder beside the product.

Three variations developed from one concept brief. These examples have not been presented as paid-media test results.

MY CREATIVE PROCESS

A clear brief.
A review loop.
A finished asset.

I follow the same core process for images and videos. Studio, my assistant in Codex, helps me organize the brief, develop ideas and review the work. I also use Claude Code and Codex to build creative tools and develop motion with Remotion. I guide the creative decisions and make the final selection.

  1. 01 / UNDERSTAND

    Set the brief

    Define the audience, objective, message and deliverables. Research references, gather product details and decide what must stay consistent.

  2. 02 / CREATE

    Build the direction

    Develop the concept with Studio, choose references and prepare prompts or scripts. Generate imagery, assemble video or use Claude Code and Codex to build motion in Remotion.

  3. 03 / REVIEW

    Check against the brief

    Inspect the actual output. For images, check product details, text and visual consistency. For video, also review pacing, captions, audio and the message.

  4. 04 / REFINE

    Correct and recheck

    Apply specific feedback, then inspect the revision again. Use Canva, Photoshop or Affinity for design finishing and CapCut for video editing when the project calls for them.

  5. 05 / DELIVER

    Save the selected version

    Make the final selection, export the required formats and preserve the original files. Save useful decisions and feedback so the next session starts with context.

THE PROCESS IN PRACTICE

Two examples from the image work.

A reference establishes the direction. Specific feedback improves the result.

A

One product.
A campaign world.

Starting point: the SUNSHIFT Peach + Citrus packaging reference.

Direction: a bright weekday lunch break, with cobalt, yellow and peach connecting the imagery.

Result: product-led ads and an editorial image family.

A new scene generated from a product reference.

Starting point / packaging reference
Result / weekday lunch ad
B

Make the scene
match the message.

Early draft: the scene needed to support “Pizza night” more clearly and keep the headline unobstructed.

Revision: a nighttime tabletop, direct flash and a simple hand reaching for a slice.

Result: the occasion reads immediately; the campaign signoff stays consistent.

Original and revised versions from the same concept campaign.

PRODUCT CAMPAIGN

SUNSHIFT.
A brighter lunch break.

A consistent palette of cobalt blue, peach and yellow connects product portraits, sensory details and everyday lunch scenes.

ONE IDENTITY / THREE ROLES

One visual identity.
A complete image library.

01 · Establish

Product portraits make the can and its colors recognizable.

02 · Make it tangible

Fruit, fizz and condensation bring the sensory details closer.

03 · Give it context

Lifestyle frames place the product inside a familiar lunch break.

CONCEPT EXPLORATIONS

Digital-product ads.
Three distinct concepts.

Three distinct approaches to a faceless AI-content offer: a visual metaphor, a creator’s everyday setting and an unexpected spotlight scene.

More of the making

A paper-to-plane metaphor makes the creative benefit visible.

Build online. Stay off camera.

A creator-at-work scene connects the message to a familiar routine.

You don’t need the spotlight

An empty chair in a spotlight illustrates a message about creating without appearing on camera.

Independent creative concepts. No income or campaign performance results are claimed.

MY CREATIVE SYSTEM

Start with research.
Build around the message.

I look for inspiration in Facebook Ad Library, brand websites and other creative references. I study hooks, layouts and product framing, then use my format library to shape an original execution around the brief.

01 · Research references02 · Define the angle03 · Adapt a format04 · Make & refine

Choose a format to see an example and its creative approach.

Campaign adaptation

Adapted from the Static Ad Generator framework. Each SUNSHIFT example uses original concept copy rather than unsupported statistics, testimonials or press endorsements.

MEET MY AI ASSISTANT

I direct the work.
Studio works with me.

Studio is my AI creative assistant, configured inside Codex through Markdown files. I built its instructions around how I develop ideas, review images and carry a project from one session to the next.

STUDIO / MY CREATIVE ASSISTANT

My direction.
Our working process.
A record of what comes next.

A working brief.
Saved as a system.

It began with a simple need: help with images and design. I developed that into a file-based AI agent workflow with a defined role, saved preferences, campaign briefs and explicit review criteria.

Instructions
Markdown files define Studio’s role, tools and creative workflow.
Memory
Saved preferences and feedback keep the direction consistent.
Project context
Briefs, references and status notes preserve the decisions behind the work.
Review loop
Generate, inspect, correct and save a selected version for my final review.

Studio runs during my active Codex sessions. I set the direction, review the output and make the final creative decisions.
