# Review and refine a visual concept

AI Content Creation | Module 10: Direct AI images

## Your goal

Choose a visual using the brief rather than novelty.

Inspect the main subject, misleading details, composition, and space for text. A beautiful image can still fail if the notebook is hidden or the frame suggests a different activity.

Ask for one targeted change at a time: simplify the background, move the notebook, or increase the empty space. Keep the original so you can explain why the revision helps.

If you have no image tool, compare two drawn layouts. The review skill is the same: use the purpose and reader need to make a choice.

## Source pack

FICTIONAL PRACTICE BRIEF: Green Bench is a student repair club. It runs a free notebook-cover repair workshop on Saturday, 14:00 to 16:00, in Room B. There are 12 places. Learners bring one worn notebook; tools and scrap card are provided. Register using the club form. No date, form URL, access arrangements, impact figures, or testimonials have been supplied. Ask the organiser about missing details before publishing. This is a creative exercise, not a real event.

## Worked example

Compare two imagined concepts: a busy tool wall and a simple notebook on a desk.

### Concept comparison

The tool wall has many competing objects. The desk concept makes the worn notebook the clear subject and better matches the repair brief.

### Revision request

Keep the simple notebook composition but move it lower in the frame to create enough clear space for the event heading.

### Review note

I would inspect the revised concept for distorted objects and misleading tools, then check the heading at a small viewing size.

Completeness checks do not assess creative quality or factual accuracy. Review the actual work yourself or with a mentor.
