Runway AI — HONEST video generation review + TIPS from Editor!

Clear and concise thorough explanation. Thank you. That was hilarious when you had Jesus leaning in from the side -- "I'm watching you!"

I've been using Freepik's Pro plan for a while which offers access and lots of credits to Kling, Runway, Luma, Mochi, and Minimax. However, the time limit is 5 seconds and resolution is 1980's TV output of 480x640.....not even regular HD (or as good as BetaMax) But it's given me lots of "play and evaluation" time in my progression of how to apply text-to-image and image-to-generation with positive results.

One important contrast to mention to viewers is the fact that many creators, like myself, spend over a thousand dollars every year on stock images, videos, and special effects. If I buy a basic plan from 3-4 AI platforms, it will end up saving me more money in the long run, where I can eliminate expensive stock platforms like pond5 and adobe. I do a lot of special effects and green screens on my own, and this will also eliminate this as well.

One more important note is that people are concerned that AI will cause job losses. Of course it will; every new technology cause job losses.......and creates jobs. Just like cars eliminated the horse and buggy, AI will help reduce the need for expensive special effects from industry leaders. A few years ago, I was getting estimates for a Leviathan creature from the bible, and found out that ILM charges $56,000 a second. Now, AI does what I need. It's the industry's own fault for over-charging!

LOL never google x videos... my bleeding eyes :)

Dude. Thanks for making this video. I feel the same way. I'm an instructional designer, and I need control of my characters. AI is getting better, but I still can't seem to find a tool that meets my needs. It's just too random.

What is the ai for creating content? For example, a drinks business that has a can and want different stuff for insta etc?

Cant agree more, its all the hype created so far......

Agree about the 'random' issue with AI generating sites. Commercial photographer here and enjoying using Midjourney/Chatgpt, etc. But the use case for commercial jobs right now, at least for me, is non-existent. A client would want reproducible outputs that are consistent and I haven't yet found a way to do this. And most commercial clients are using AI image/video generation for mood boards or presentations not for final commercial use. Some clients actually forbid the use of AI generation because it won't be true to their product.
