I’ve been deep in the lab testing the latest iterations of the two heavyweights dominating the conversation right now: Midjourney and the surprisingly powerful newcomer, Nano Banana Pro. They are both incredible. They are also completely different animals. If you’re trying to decide which one fits your creative practice, you’re in the right place. Let’s break it down. Midjourney: The Soulful Art Director For a long time, Midjourney had a massive barrier to entry: Discord....

You might have heard the rumblings about Google Flow: It’s their new AI-powered filmmaking tool, built on top of heavy-hitting models like Veo and Gemini. But let’s cut through the tech specs and get to the heart of the matter: Is this actually useful for creative pros, or is it just another shiny toy? I’ve dug into the interface and the output, and I’m seeing some things that attempt to solve the biggest headaches we’ve...

If you’ve been following the creative landscape lately, you know the speed of innovation is crazy. For years, we talked about the power of the still image. And now, the ability to bring those images to life isn’t just a "nice to have," it’s becoming a requirement for modern storytelling. There's a few ways to do this but today, I want to zero in on how to do it with Google's Veo 3.1 video model...

The internet is full of "hacks" on how to remove the Nano Banana watermark using clone stamps or third-party erasers. Don't do that. It degrades the image quality and wastes your time. If you really need to do it manually, Photoshop's healing brush tool is usually the easiest way. But the professional workaround is simple: Use the API. When you access the Nano Banana model through an API (Application Programming Interface), you generally bypass the...

Google recently dropped this update (built on their Gemini 3 model), and the buzz is real. But buzz doesn't pay the bills—workflow does. I’ve had my team dig into the specs and community questions to bring you the definitive Nano Banana Pro FAQs for creative professionals like photographers, designers, marketers, etc. Here's everything you need to know to decide if this tool belongs in your creative stack (and spoiler warning, it does): Q: What exactly...

The industry isn't shifting; it has shifted. If you’re a photographer, illustrator, or video editor sitting on the sidelines waiting to see if generative video is "just a fad," you are already late. We are past the era of glitchy, morphing nightmares. We are in the era of usable, professional-grade AI video generation. Google’s Veo 3 (and the enhanced Veo 3.1) has landed, and it is reshaping how we storyboard, pitch, and even produce final...

You are seeing the name everywhere. Nano Banana has rapidly become the shorthand for high-end AI image generation and editing, specifically the models powering Google’s latest Gemini updates. If you work in photography, design, or illustration, you cannot ignore tools that promise to speed up your workflow by 10x. But you also know that subscription fatigue is real. Every tool wants $20, $50, or $100 a month. As a creative professional, you have to treat...

You’re here because you want to know if Weavy is worth the cash. Maybe you’ve heard the buzz about "node-based workflows" or you’re tired of the slot-machine dynamic of basic AI image generators. You want control. You want to build a system, not just prompt and pray. That's Weavy, and it's amazing! But how much does it cost, and is it worth it? If you are a photographer, designer, or art director, you need to...

The Best AI Image Upscaler for Creative Pros: 2025 Guide Because you’re reading this, you’ve likely hit the wall. You have an image—maybe it’s a killer shot from a 12-megapixel sensor you held onto too long, a client’s low-res logo, or a Midjourney generation that looks incredible on your phone but falls apart on a 27-inch monitor. The pixel count isn’t there. Five years ago, you were stuck. You’d use "Bicubic Smoother" in Photoshop, add...

In the past, "upscaling" was a dirty word in professional circles. Bicubic resampling in Photoshop gave us mushy, soft messes that looked like watercolor paintings gone wrong. You couldn't invent detail that wasn't there. That rule is dead. Technological advancements in machine learning—specifically the generative adversarial networks (GANs) and diffusion models used by Topaz Labs—have changed the physics of digital imaging. We can now add resolution while recovering (or even creating) texture, sharpness, and fidelity....
