Don't
Press
Generate.
GORO's workshop on creative direction in the age of generative AI.
Anyone can press
'Generate'.
Very few know when not to.
"Don't Press Generate" is not a course on tools. It is a workshop about what comes before the tool: vision, intention, direction.
Stéphane Benini and Bruno Detante co-direct AI productions for some of the most demanding brands in the world. This workshop is the synthesis of their working method — built in the field, project after project, for clients who do not accept mediocrity.
The workshop answers one simple question: how do you direct an AI-generated image the way you direct a film — with a visual grammar, a point of view, a narrative coherence?
What
it covers.
The anatomy of a creative brief for AI: what you write, what you show, what you refuse.
Full AI and hybrid workflows: when each approach is right.
Directing through the prompt: tone, light, movement, rhythm.
The most common mistakes made by teams who "do AI" without directing it.
Case studies from real productions: Mercedes, NFL, Google, Viaplay, Loctite.
