# Campaign wizard

> Follow the step-by-step campaign wizard to go from creative brief to production-ready images and video — all inside Creative Studio.

Open **Campaigns → New** (`/campaigns/new`) with a brand selected to start a new campaign. The wizard guides you through seven steps, and you can review decisions at each stage before moving forward.

## How do I run a campaign?

<Steps>
  <Step title="Welcome & platform">
    Choose where the campaign will run — Meta, LinkedIn, YouTube, X, and more. Set format constraints (aspect ratios, dimensions) that match your chosen platform.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a mode">
    Select the campaign mode that matches your assets and goals: AI-only, with-assets, moodboard, video, or ad-template. See [Campaign modes](/docs/campaigns/modes) for guidance on which to pick.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Brief, assets & moodboard">
    Write your creative brief. If you chose **with-assets** or **video** mode, upload product photos, talent imagery, or other brand files. Optionally build a moodboard to set visual direction before generation.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review ideas">
    The Creative Director agent generates 25–30 ideas across distinct creative territories. Review, filter, and select one or more ideas to develop further.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Variants & prompts">
    Optionally generate layout variants of your selected idea. Then review the structured prompts the Prompt Engineer prepared for generation.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate">
    Launch image or video generation. Use inpaint to fix details on individual outputs without restarting the entire wizard.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save & publish">
    Finished assets are saved to campaign results and your brand asset library. From there, push directly to Scheduler or continue refining in Studio.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Each campaign step that involves AI generation or moodboard batches deducts credits from your brand or workspace balance. See [Credits](/docs/workspaces/credits) to understand the cost model.
</Note>

## What happens after I generate?

After generation, your outputs live in **Brand Identity → Assets** organized by type (Images, Videos, Studio). You can edit individual images with inpaint, push assets to Scheduler, or open them in Studio for further refinement.
