ISBCD Education Series: AI as a Tool

On October 18, 2026, ISBCD presented AI as a Tool, a virtual seminar led by ISBCD members Quinton Jackson and Elfee Duquette and moderated by ISBCD President Antoinette Messam. Part of the ISBCD Education Series, the webinar explored practical ways AI can support costume designers in their creative process, research, and professional development, while addressing ethical considerations and real-world applications. ISBCD Executive Board Member Deirdra Govan also joined the discussion, sharing her expertise on AI, and the evolving legal landscape surrounding its use in the industry. The session emphasized AI as a resource to complement, rather than replace, human creativity.
