Campaign Studio

A concept tool that helps a small creative business turn a campaign goal into a channel-ready direction—while keeping brand judgment and final review with the human creator.

Problem

Planning distinct content across several channels can be slow and inconsistent.

AI exploration

I mapped how goal, channel, and tone could become a useful creative brief.

Design decisions

Simple choices, transparent outputs, and an explicit human-review checkpoint keep the experience understandable.
