Available Workflows
| # | Workflow | Produces | Use When |
|---|
| taste | Personal Taste Mastery Roadmap | A personalized taste development curriculum and practice schedule | You feel a 'taste gap' where your ability to recognize quality exceeds your ability to produce it, or you want to systematically upgrade your aesthetic judgment. |
| taste | Taste-Led Brand Authority Kit | A brand manifesto and content strategy that attracts high-value clients | You want to move away from commodity services and position yourself as a premium creative authority whose specific 'eye' is the product. |
| creative | Creative Quality & Direction Audit | A comprehensive quality assessment and cross-domain strategic report | You need to evaluate a project, brand, or product's quality objectively, or apply your expertise to a new, unfamiliar industry. |
| creative | Art Direction Toolkit Elevator | A shoot/asset elevation plan: the one thing, named techniques, scene dressing, executor-ready handoff | A shoot, product photo, or content concept is ordinary and needs deliberate frame-level elevation — from white-background shoots to full brand-world productions. |
| creative | Moodboard Conversation System | Board architecture (vibe + tactical, or 5+1 shoot buckets) + the add/eliminate sign-off protocol | You need to align stakeholders, photographers, designers, or factories visually — turning references into signed-off decisions instead of a collage. |
