The Future Brief helps creatives build the skillsets of tomorrow in AI, motion, and beyond with clear, practical insights so the future feels exciting.

Two years ago I was planning for a future that no longer exists. The unknown brought a lot of fear and anxiety.

I've leaned into it by exploring AI & building my skillsets.

So grateful to @theJoshLoh for the chance to join the @neue_academy , and to learn from Niccolò Miranda.

I'm hosting a Config Debrief this Friday. Come join me! https://t.co/VnOCemtsxq

I wrote about this shift in thinking and how it's changed the way I approach AI assistants, image gen, and vibe coding → https://t.co/C4kNdEUJjC

Designers keep asking which AI tool they should learn as if the industry is going to pick one for us like it did with Figma.

I don't think that answer is coming this time, and honestly I think that's a better situation for all of us.

The risk of AI in creative work isn’t the tech, it’s when it’s used as a shortcut that drags quality down.

The antidote? Transparency.

In today’s issue of The Future Brief:
✦ Where AI helps (and where it flops)
✦ Sharing your process to build trust

@designertom Because I enjoy the work I do! The clients I collaborate with have an actual impact on humanity.

[Brittany Steiner @futurebriefclub]

@thejoshloh I feel the same! It's been the busiest summer so far, and I'm looking forward to the fall.

Very excited about what's to come for The Digital Third!

I keep seeing JSON prompts pop up in my feed. But are they just another passing trend, or can they actually improve image and video workflows?

In today’s #NotInTheBrief, I share:

- What worked & what didn’t
- A JSON prompt you can test yourself
- A couple interesting tools

In 2013, this scene was pure science fiction.

In 2025, it was a documentary of last week.

@zstvns @rileycx @figma I'm a psycho as well @zstvns for the same reasons ha!

How do web designers hand off motion to developers?

Typical answer: After Effects.

But I prefer @jittervideo for ease of use.

In today’s issue of @notinthebrief, I walk through my full process with a tutorial and a free animated Jitter file you can use in your own projects. 👏🏼

[Brittany Steiner @futurebriefclub]

@zstvns I was surprised! Had to test out a few different images in Midjourney's omi-reference to get at least one photo to look like me. Or at least a younger version of me! ha

[Brittany Steiner @futurebriefclub]

What would early 2000s me be dreaming about in class? 💭Probably something weird like this image. 🐠

Used GPT, Midjourney and photoshop to create this!

I love that I can quickly create these weird ideas stuck in my head.

I started a newsletter for curious creatives.

Motion. AI. Design experiments.

Every two weeks I break down what I’m building and how, so you can learn with me.

Next one drops 7/24 👇

Taught a session on Motion/@jittervideo to the #DesignGym beta group last week. 🎉

We explored what’s possible in Jitter, my workflow for implementing animations into websites, and animating a fun Figma-inspired design using the @TheDigitalThird branding.

[Brittany Steiner @futurebriefclub]

Last Thursday was Session 5 of the #DesignGym, focused on Branding Kits with the incredible Tatum Brandt 🎉

I challenged myself to create cohesive, on-brand visuals for a single concept, combining both branding and AI techniques. @TheDigitalThird
