Overview

This course connects AI Image & Video Generation with the everyday processes of Content & PR. Participants work on realistic scenarios and leave with prompts, workflows and checklists they can use straight away.

AI image and video generators are changing how visuals are produced for campaigns, presentations, product pages and training materials. In this hands-on day you will get to know the key tools, including Midjourney, image generation in ChatGPT, Adobe Firefly and Runway, and understand how they differ in style, handling, licensing terms and purpose. You will practise structured prompting for subject, composition, lighting and style, and learn to vary, edit and adapt results for different formats.

Using these images responsibly matters just as much as creating them. You will clarify which usage rights apply to AI-generated content, where the risks lie regarding personality rights, trade marks and copyright, and when labelling is advisable or required. You will also develop methods to keep visual language and corporate design consistent across many assets, for example with style references and prompt templates. Finally, you will set up a repeatable workflow from idea through approval to publication.

Content, communications and PR teams must tell relevant stories to journalists, customers, employees and search engines with limited resources. Generative AI is changing this daily work noticeably: AI assistants research topics, develop content strategies, structure articles and white papers, draft press releases, Q&A documents and interview briefings and optimise copy for search engines and AI-powered search. Automation supports media monitoring, topic tracking and repurposing content across formats. At the same time, the demands on credibility are rising: facts must be correct, quotes must be approved and crisis communication requires sensitivity. AI is therefore a tool for research, structure and variants, while stance, quality and accountability remain with communications professionals.

The course is delivered live – either online in a virtual classroom or on-site in our training rooms in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run it exclusively for your team.

Practical scenarios from your field

Topic research and content strategy

An AI assistant analyses search intent, customer questions and industry trends, clusters topics and proposes a content plan with formats, audiences and key messages for the team to prioritise.

Press release drafts

From facts, quotes and background information, AI produces an inverted-pyramid draft including headline variants, boilerplate and a short version for social media.

Articles and white papers

AI creates outlines, summarises expert interviews, drafts individual sections and checks readability, flow and consistent use of technical terms, before subject matter experts sign off the content.

Content repurposing

A white paper or webinar is turned into blog posts, LinkedIn posts, newsletter sections and FAQ entries, each with adapted length, tone and call to action.

Media monitoring insights

Automations collect online media mentions; AI summarises tone, key statements and relevant journalists and drafts a daily or weekly press review.

Crisis and Q&A preparation

AI helps anticipate critical questions, draft Q&A documents and holding statements and run through crisis communication scenarios, which are then agreed with management and legal.

Prerequisites

Design experience is helpful but not required. You should have a basic familiarity with digital image formats and your organisation’s corporate design. You work in communications, PR or content marketing and have experience in professional writing.

Technical requirements

You will need a laptop with an up-to-date browser. Access to at least one image generator such as ChatGPT, Midjourney or Adobe Firefly is ideal; trial access is provided for selected exercises.

Data protection & compliance

AI-supported communication must respect copyright, quotation rules and personality rights; quotes must never be invented and must be approved by the person quoted. Confidential information such as unpublished financial results belongs only in approved AI environments, and the EU AI Act's transparency duties apply to AI-generated text on matters of public interest.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use AI-generated images commercially?

That depends mainly on the provider’s terms of use and your subscription plan. In addition, purely AI-generated content generally does not enjoy copyright protection under German and most European law, which limits exclusivity. On the course you learn to check licensing terms, recognise risks around trade marks and real people, and document how assets were created.

How do I achieve a consistent look for my brand?

Consistency comes from a system: you translate your corporate design into fixed prompt components, use style and subject references, and define colours, framing and lighting moods as binding rules. A review step and a library of approved reference images then ensure that several people in the team can produce coherent results.

Do I have to label AI-generated images and videos?

The EU AI Act sets out transparency obligations, particularly for deepfakes, meaning realistic depictions of people, places or events. Platform rules and advertising standards also apply. On the course you clarify when labelling is mandatory, when it is sensible on a voluntary basis and how to establish a consistent practice across your organisation.

How do we prevent false facts in AI-generated copy?

AI assistants can produce convincing but incorrect statements. Work with supplied sources as context, ask for claims to be referenced and introduce a mandatory fact check before publication. In the course we develop prompt patterns and review routines that support exactly this.

Do search engines penalise AI-generated content?

Search engines primarily assess quality, usefulness and expertise, not how content was produced. Mass-produced thin content does harm rankings, however. Content that performs well combines genuine expertise, examples and data, with AI providing structure and efficiency and experts providing substance.

How much does “AI Image & Video Generation for Content and PR Teams” cost?

The course costs a flat €949 plus VAT per participant – whether online or on-site. This includes 1 training day(s) with a live trainer, course materials, a lab environment and a certificate of attendance.

Can I suggest my own date?

Yes. Our suggested dates are just a guide. In the request form you can always describe your preferred date or period in free text – we check availability and confirm within one working day.

Is the course online or on-site?

Both are possible: live online in a virtual classroom or on-site in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart or Kaiserslautern. We can also run the course exclusively for your team.
