Another great video. Thank you. Thanks for showing not just your prompts, but the layout for us to use.

You know what's crazy? I was playing with Gen 2 this morning by uploading an AI avatar of myself in Pixar style to Gen 2 as an image prompt, and I luckily used a very similar prompt structure to the one your mentioned - style, shot, subject, action, setting. I didn't include the lighting though, and this was my first ever attempt at using Gen 2 and I was actually impressed with the result. I mean it had deformed hands and all, but was generally happy with Gen 2 gave me. I compare this to early versions of Midjourney - I bet in a year (or less) we're going to get some pretty fantastic results. Thanks again for your awesome video and tips ❤

Appreciate you getting this up today. Why is today my busiest work day, all I want to do is play with the new toy!

Hello, Tim! I really like your videos, and I'd suggest you consider creating one guiding us through a more involved story telling for an ultra-short -- are you up for 1 min ?? :o) I have just started with Runway G2 as I'm still trying to run Automatic 1111 locally, and that is hell. Anyway, are you getting "vanishing in and out" problems when objects move in the same zone? I didn't notice that in the NYC scene but I didn't watch it closely enough. A typical prompt for you to get in trouble would be "cars moving in a busy street" ... just fill the rest as you want. If you figure out a solution, please do a video. I'll leave a note if I get any ideas about that. Tks for the tip about "styling" with "fix seeds". I'm hopeful in terms of where this goes!!

Just got their Ultimate plan...yes, $100 a month...but I think it'll be well worth it. Always made some cool looking videos and can't wait to create more with Gen2! Great tutorial.

Quick turn around on this video :P Well done. Good info. Thanks.

Awesome vid great how much smoother the vids are now 🎉

I’m getting it to produce exactly what I want by first creating an image and uploading it. I use the same prompt for the video as I did for the image. It is adding in my light reflection, ray tracing, and all of that. It listens to my camera angle and pan/zoom settings but my issue is the duration and quality.

Thx for the vid...very helpful insights :)

I started my journey creating AI content. I've had some fun using pan and zoom videos so far with midjourney, but will eventually try text to video if I can. Thanks for your videos. Take care!

Thanks for this video so much!

I love the effect on the cities examples. It’s looking choppy. How did you achieve that?

Thank you. I am a subscriber. My question is does Runway Gen offer a place for "Negative" prompts ... I don't want any morphing into a whole new person? I want to keep the same character throughout the video.Thanks

Great content! I just subscribed to your channel and turned notifications. So I can make videos or shorts with my script or text and Gen2 creates the video itself, correct? If I don't need to find copyright-free photos and I don’t need to take pics to put together to make/edit a video which I've never done it before, I won't wait to pay right away through your affiliate link.

Thanks!

Syntax of prompts at mark 1:34. Style shot subject action setting lighting.

Thank you.

No kung fu? This is ridiculous! Ha! Thank you for the video. 👍 I hopped on there the minute I got the email. I can't wait for 6 months from now. Appreciate your videos as always.

Thank you very much, things are immediately better with your method 👍. Is there still an advantage to going through Discord or is it the same now?

So I'm trying to animate an image from Midjourney but Runway just takes it as a reference rather than simply animating the image I'm happy with when I give it a prompt. Is there a way to stop it from generating new imagery and just take the image as is and use the text prompt to inform the action?

what I find frustrating with my experiments is the lack of precision on placement when it comes to prompts e.g. if you want an element of chr in your scene to be on fire, it will add the fire quite randomly to the surrounding area not tight to any given region you try to describe

thanks

Are there ways of combining elements from these generated videos with actual films? Would masking work? Essentially turning video parts into pngs and pasting them onto others, then editing lighting as though it is all part of the same video.

I have a doubt .can we add dialogues via prompt and get an output like actors are talking/ kind of lip sync

Hmmm interesting. I feel the more expensive Kaiber results were better especially for the skater one you finished your previous video with. Hmm 🤔 not sure if it's too early to do Gen 2 yet until it's a bit better in results

I jeed to kearn how to make the characters move . I have hyoer realistic characters for a music bideo real i am trying to create , but its hard to give the characters human like mkvmenet , blinking , walking , smiling etc . Any tips, thank you guys

Thank you very much! Although I am sad that we can only generate a video of 4 seconds

my first attempt was a travasty, tried doing a 16mm 1980s family home movie... don't know what those kids were doing but that's not how you eat icecream! Second attemp I used image reference from MJv5.1 renders and a similar promt and got very near exact results. The hands anatomy is messed up like old MJ. The video quality is terrible, but hey, this is very promising.

anyone know how to create video loops with this , what can "seamless" in time ?

Goddamn this shit's going to get out of hand real soon. June 2024 we'll look back at this moment with endearment of "remember when AI videos we're yet absolutely perfect and you couldn't make full movies with a short sentence?"

I saw a post where a person sseemed to use Gen2 to edit their own videos. But I don't see a way to do that. Is that possible yet?

Does the Color Wheel on corner get removed I get the upgrade

Good video however anyone unfamiliar with discord and what it does may get a little lost, for instance to make a reference to using runway on discord however when I looked up discord it didn’t give me any info on this and just appeared to be a platform for creative communities to chat and discuss work. Anyway I just don’t have enough knowledge to utilise whatever discord is offering

all my generations are slow. is there a way to speed em up? adding 'fast' doesn't help

Any ideas on what to type to make the characters look as if they're speaking? I've tried "man talking," woman speaking," people having a conversation," and can't get their mouths to move.

can you change the aspect ratio?

omg you look like the James Bond character!!!!

I found a work-around for the low 4 seconds you get. I just create a new Davinci Resolve project and set it to 16 fps. Then important the video and activate retime control and drop it to 50% My work-around for low quality is to import the video into Davinci Resolve then export each frame as a .png then upscale it with chaiNNer. Put the upscaled .png files back in Davinci then create the video.. Problem is, that’s a lot of work… Not worth payment at this this IMO.

Did Gen 2 changed their model or something? Remember these weird A.I. commercials like pizza nuggets? I'm not getting any of these results. 😮

hey dude on the video..guess what?

Gen-2 is awful Most of what it churns out based on the image you prompt it with... turn out to be total grrbage. Maybe 1 out of 20 results are usuable for anything at all. I'm canceling after my first month runs out. It's not useful for anything at this stage. I even trained a model with 15 images and it won't use the model when I put it in the prompt.

just wasted time. The generated video makes my pretty girl images very ugly! Disappointed to this app.

set lighting is a tad low bud....let's see that movie star face!😬
