COURSE FACTS
Contents
Module 1: AI image generation & advanced prompting
To be able to generate something with AI, you need the right prompts. In this workshop, participants will learn how to create these in order to generate images with the AI image generation tool Midjourney.
In addition, some lesser-known functions of Midjourney are presented, which can be used to create consistent characters and unusual styles. As an outlook, possible applications of these images are shown using examples.
Module 2: AI video generation I (focus on Kling and Pika and the combination of the tools mentioned below)
An overview of the most impressive AI tools for video generation such as Kling, Runway Gen-3, Pika and Luma Labs Dream Machine will be given. Advantages and disadvantages as well as possible applications will be demonstrated using short films from the AI filmmaking community.
Participants will then learn how to use Runway Gen-3 and LumaLabs Dream Machine to generate videos based on images or prompts.
Module 3: AI video generation II
With the help of AI tools, entire films can now be created. After a brief overview of the state of the tools using film examples, participants will learn how to use Runway Gen-3 to create a film scene based on images or prompts.
It shows how to generate voice-overs, sound effects and even music with AI and how to breathe life into the generated protagonists with the help of easy-to-use tools (deep fake).
Live Portrait is a simple deep fake tool that can be used to bring images to life or replace faces in videos (deep fake). It shows how this tool can be used in combination with other AI tools such as Elevenlabs, Haiper and Runway to create entire movies.
Module 4: AI-Style Transfer
With the help of AI tools, images and videos can be transformed into other styles in no time at all. Possible applications are presented using impressive image and video examples from the AI community.
Participants will learn how to use style transfer tools such as Kaiber, Genmo and Magnific to turn 3D layouts into final renderings in seconds, how to place products or people in different environments and how to convert videos into other styles.
Module 5: Leonardo AI
Leonardo AI is an AI tool that offers advanced image generation and editing and can also generate videos using the motion function. Its numerous models make it ideal for professional creatives who want to create high-quality visual content in different styles.
Participants will learn how to use Leonardo AI to perform complex image and video editing tasks. They will learn how to use the tool’s powerful functions in their projects.
Module 6: Stable Diffusion, ComfyUI & 3D AI
ComfyUI is an advanced interface for Stable Diffusion, an open-source community-based AI tool that offers by far the most flexible application possibilities for the creation of images, videos and 3D models.
Participants will learn how to create their own workflows or use workflows provided by the community. The best workflows from the community will be presented and tested.
Tools such as TripoAI, CSM or Meshy make it possible to create and animate 3D models in just a few seconds. Participants will learn how to create 3D models for illustrations or animations based on images and prompts.

Prerequisites
🟡 Requirements for GenAI courses
Since Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) covers a broad range of topics, prerequisites may vary slightly depending on the course level (beginner, intermediate, advanced). Here are general prerequisites that might be relevant for most GenAI courses:
✅ Basic interest in AI and machine learning (No prior technical knowledge required – understanding of how AI works is provided)
✅ Experience with digital tools and platforms (e.g. image editing, word processing, cloud services)
✅ General computer skills (navigating the internet, working with software & platforms)
✅ Basic knowledge of design, content creation or marketing (helpful, but not absolutely necessary)
✅ Openness to creative and technical processes (Experimentation and curiosity are more important than technical knowledge)
💡 No experience with AI yet? No problem! Beginner courses teach the basics of prompting, AI-supported image and text creation as well as the most important tools and platforms.
💡 Already have experience with AI tools? Advanced courses build on existing knowledge and help you develop your skills in areas such as style transfer, fine-tuning, automation and workflow optimization.
