An original planning exercise for SeaArt AI. Adapt the brief to the inputs available in your chosen tool; examples describe creative intent, not tested product results.
Give each card a different purpose
The identity card shows the full outfit and key visual details. The motivation card can use a quieter portrait with space for a short written goal. The scene card places the messenger at a blocked path, turning the design into a story problem.
Connect the visual choices to the role
A practical satchel and weather-ready cape explain how the messenger travels. Avoid decorative items that imply a different profession unless that contradiction matters to the story. The design should give collaborators useful clues rather than a list of unexplained accessories.
Keep narrative information editable
Write the character’s goal, fear and scene challenge outside the generated art. This allows the story to evolve without rebuilding the whole card. Review the three cards together and check that costume, proportions and general tone remain consistent.
PUT IT INTO WORDS
A SeaArt AI example brief
Card set for an original forest messenger: a clear full-body identity view, a calm portrait for a motivation card, and a scene at a fallen tree blocking the path. Preserve the leaf-shaped cape and round satchel across all three. Reserve clean layout space for editable story notes rather than embedding text in the images.
Use this as a starting point, then record the specific change you want to test.
BEFORE THE NEXT VERSION
Review the result against the brief
- Each card should help a collaborator answer a different story question.
- The costume should support the character’s practical role.
- Keep goals and scene notes editable as the story develops.
Practical question
Is a character card the same as a finished story?
No. It is a compact reference for design and motivation. The story still needs decisions, consequences and a sequence of events that gives those character details meaning.
