This course is free in full: every module, knowledge check and the final task, with no sign-up.

Plan visual briefs, reference consistency, local edits, storyboards and asset handovers.

No design software required for the planning exercises. Each lesson includes a worked example, a practice task and an answer explanation. Allow about 12 minutes per lesson, five minutes for the knowledge check and 30 minutes for the final assignment. The reading is concise; the study time includes doing the exercises.

All scenarios are fictional. No paid subscription, specialist hardware or live AI integration is required to complete the written exercises. Advanced courses teach design and evaluation principles; they do not claim to provide a production implementation or professional accreditation.
