The future of video generation is here! Runway, a pioneering force in Artificial Intelligence, has officially launched Gen-2, an avant-garde multimodal AI system, now accessible on both web and mobile platforms. This state-of-the-art system is capable of synthesizing videos from text, images, and video clips, setting new standards for content creation.
Unveiled in March, Gen-2 is an extension of Runway’s original Gen-1 system, but with significantly enhanced capabilities. It empowers users to create fresh and captivating videos by applying the composition and style of an image or text prompt to an existing source video. Gen-2 takes it a step further by enabling video generation purely from text prompts, turning your words into moving visual narratives.
In March 2023, Gen-1 offered five impressive modes:
- Stylization: This mode allows users to overlay the style of any image or prompt across every frame of their videos. Whether you’re aspiring for the grandeur of Van Gogh’s Starry Night or the stark minimalism of a Bauhaus design, you can now seamlessly infuse your videos with that aesthetic.
- Storyboard: Tired of static mockups? Gen-1 breathes life into them, transforming your still images into fully stylized and animated renders. Witness your concepts take flight with real-time animation.
- Mask: Get granular with your edits. Isolate subjects in your video and modify them with straightforward text prompts. No more fussing with complex tools – the Mask mode has you covered.
- Render: Give a realistic touch to your untextured renders. By applying an input image or prompt, you can turn basic, flat shapes into stunning, realistic visuals.
- Customization: For those looking to push the boundaries even further, Gen-1 provides a customization mode. Tailor the AI model to deliver even higher fidelity results, giving you unparalleled control and precision.
The new Gen-2 system retains all the features of Gen-1, with the addition of three exclusive modes that propel video generation to the next level:
- Mode 1 – Text to Video: This mode opens up a world of possibilities where your text becomes the canvas for your video creations. You can now conjure up videos in any style you can envision, using nothing more than a text prompt.
- Mode 2 – Text + Image to Video: Gen-2 takes multimedia synthesis to new heights with this mode. You can now generate a video using a driving image along with a text prompt. It perfectly combines the power of your words and images to create compelling videos.
- Mode 3 – Image to Video: In this mode, Gen-2 turns a static image into a dynamic video, allowing you to breathe life into any driving image of your choice.
Gen-2 is an exciting leap forward in the realm of AI-driven video generation. The possibilities it brings for content creators, artists, educators, and marketers are endless. With its enhanced capabilities and innovative features, Gen-2 is poised to transform the way we create and perceive digital content.
