5 Spectacular New Features of RunwayML
With video-generation tools blurring the line between reality and AI, the continuous developments are only making it easier for people to create stunning visuals. RunwayML, an applied AI research company for AI video editing and generation, which is capable of making videos from short text-based prompts, has released a series of new updates and features. The updates are said to enhance user experience by providing more control, fidelity and expressiveness. Here are some of the latest features of RunwayML that transcend the boundaries of creativity. Motion Brush Motion Brush, a cutting-edge interface for generative models, is empowering artists with controlled movement options for enhanced creative expression. This tool addresses the need for increased utility and expressiveness in generative models, providing users with precise control over their creations. Users can paint an area or subject, and choose appropriate directions and intensity to the motion, thereby allowing one to transform any kind of images or portion of images into a video. This has been called a much-needed feature with many sharing their experiments with the new tool. A few users have also tried running this feature on images generated from Midjourney.

Style presets in Gen2 allows one to create content using curated styles without the need of complex prompting. Glossy animations, and grainy retro film stocks are some of the many styles that can be brought to stories. https://twitter.com/iamneubert/status/1727719096706543726 Director Mode Updates The advanced camera control on Director’s mode has been updated with more nuances.
