Looks like the pain point is still getting a consistent look across different shots. It's basically a fantastic way of creating stock footage rather than making a movie
Well the good part is that this will def. be one of the features to be improved in the near future so you can just feed the footage back into itself or just drive a new generation. Standalone just as a look dev or storyboard tool, this is already pretty awesome.

Exactly, no one else cares. Clients are just looking at the bottom line, as usual. We got a grant for using AI at my old work (almost two years ago) and it eliminated three hires. The continuity doesn't even seem to be that big an issue in some cases, with half decent source material.

They must ( and most likely will ) add the possibility of adding an image sample to better direct the outcome. That will be a game changer as you can then probably produce anime or graphic novel films on your own

Have you tried to shoot your videos in a higher shutter speed? Doing so you will get less motion blur what will make it easier for the program to understand those fast moving frames 👍
Creative possibilities here are blowing my mind-from music sampling to imagery sampling, recreating. You could be the actor/actress behind every character created in a film. How about programming in the personality of one person based on all their public content and the looks of another person to create your new character.
Your great way of explaining the new iteration of AI movie generation in detail and with great examples just made me a subscriber - thanks for making these vids!
This is the first video I've seen cover the features properly (and Tim did as well) instead of just passing one video through all the preset prompts, great stuff!
@@aisamsonreal Long term I think this shows through because as soon as one piece of news comes out in the AI space, everyone tries to jump on it asap and you end up watching the same non-instructive video several times and it''s definitely starting to grate generally I haven't really seen too many people covering cool prompts they found that - arent' - in the presets for example. - the channels that put extra effort and thought will win out long term so keep it up! *goes out and buys wig.
Great video. I love your channel generally. I just thought I'd mention something to you about your reference to Mandalorian (not to correct you, but because you have a curious and interested mind so I figured you'd be interested to know this). You were describing green and blue screen effects when you showed the Mandalorian clips, but their effects work flow is actually a departure from that and have been shooting on a really cool set that is essentially a wrap-around video monitor. Look into it a bit and I bet you'll get a kick out of what they did instead of blue and green screens. Great video (as always). I really like your channel!
As cool as it is… There’s almost no consistency whatsoever between shots. I think we’re all so fascinated by this new toy and how we can do just a few quick prompts and get something super cool, that we forget that there’s almost no rhyme or reason to the next output with the exact same prompt. It’s like herding cats. And it’s extremely addictive, so hours can be lost going for one specific shot, that can get to be very expensive if you don’t have the pro or ultimate plan. Then runway is trying to find another way to upcharge for extra little add on AI stuff. I’d say Hollywood is safe for now, they’ve still got the secret codes and prompts locked down, but the Genie will get all the way out of the bottle, it’s just a matter of time
Not worth subscribing IMO, way too expensive. The subscription credits are so little and most of the time the results sucks, you have to keep trying and trying until you get the results you want and it eats up your credits so fast. I cancelled my subscription. They need an option for unlimited because AI is not prefect.
You think it's expensive for AI to generate images and videos? Try hiring actors or/and a crew to shoot a scene, and we're not even talking about a set for your scene. You want to go cheaper? You can buy a powerful computer, buy Blender/ Maya, spend years learning how to create and animate a scene. You can also hired a fx artist to create a scene for you, wait for weeks, and hopefully the scene is exactly what you paid for, otherwise, it's a couple more weeks. Is runway perfect? No, but it's a lot cheaper then having to create the video you want from scratch.
@@hieuluu2The point I’m trying to make is they are too expensive for what it is. It makes too much mistakes, for the credit it charges. It’s like gambling hoping to win, you just keep putting money in until you win.
@@hieuluu2it’s some kid sitting in his room who is talentless complaining that he can’t make a feature f-ing film for $5 that’s perfect. Complain complain complain. This kid has no idea what work is. Talentless people complain about everything.
You wouldn’t want to pay for credits because the results are so bad most of the time you need unlimited because it takes so many iterations to get a good result .
@@tuna93 we're a professional media production company and we've used Runway Gen 3 for a major client's conference just last week and everyone loved the results. So if you know how, Runway with Midjourney in combination with Fusion & After Effects and even Photoshop can most definitely be used for high end professional jobs.
Correction: It's not called Hollywood Special Effects. It's properly called Visual Effects or VFX. Special Effects is specifically physical props and models.
That is a Fantastic Quote, and I 100% agree with it and your thoughts. Perfectly expressed, my Friend. I really love your updates and manner of speaking. Cheers and Best Wishes to you.
It's an extremely impressive era we're in. There's been a huge leap in motion filter video technology. But what happens if everyone starts creating their own VFX? The world could become oversaturated with AI-generated works. Maybe AI platforms offering plans should raise their fees, or else the movie industry might become too common visually, losing its excitement.
the excitement should come the fact that you can create your own movies, ask an llm to write you a script based on your vague ideas then turn it into a movie that you can personally enjoy
How much does it cost to generate videos like these? Did it work in your first generation most of the time or did you have to generate multiple times to get what you want ?
I hate these ai apps and people pawning them more than anything. It’s like giving someone Microsoft paint and making them believe they’re Michelangelo. It’s like giving a kid a dictionary and telling him he is now Dickens.
First Painting was caught up by photographing Then photos & videos by AI Is it bad / good Does the effort of making something yourself without AI still pays off ??…
Great video and examples! It shows a lot of potential, but I hope these A.I. video platforms will now focus more on maintaining a consistent character throughout multiple shots / videos. I mean, our own (fine tuned) characters and not the standard archetypes. All these A.I. video generators need to take the hurdle from short and funny video's to more comprehensive workflows and appropriate tools to tell more complex stories. I want to create my own virtual avatar and send him on adventures!
Samson, thank you so much for everything you do. Your content is amazing. I was wondering, is there a way to make the character/protagonist consistent with this approach?
I hope they will add an image option to the income, so we can tell the generator what we would like to see in the generated video. That would be a game-changer. Edit one single frame and make a whole video based on it. (Render a poor video, final render only one frame and you can save days.)
A.I., man, you should have done the whole video as her 11:27, just to test the new features out! Lol. Good video anyway, as usual, don't worry dude, we still love you. 👍👍👍
Firefly looks insane, but even tho I (have to) use Adobe, I really hope they don’t dominate. Like so many, I’m so sick of their greedy monopoly ways. Ai video is such a crazy Wild West right now and I’m loving it.
Thanks for your videos, I think you need to go a little deeper in the "how" and "why". For example : the dancing dude in green hoodie have a very bad bluescreen spill around him. This was not made with AI, they just added that flame in SCREEN, HARDLIGHT or ADD mode and used the background separately. If they cheat to promote their firefly module, that means they're not even close to be ready.
once this works in real time, with real time voice changing it will just be wtf is real. you won't be able to tell age gender or anything about someone online
I doubt this product will replace high end VFX. AI video tends to look contrasty and softer compared to the original source. To make matters worse, it even introduces visual errors as seen at 02:12. However, AI can be implemented into existing VFX softwares as nodes that one can drop in to create interesting visual effects while still maintaining quality and consistency.
People were starting to put Runway ML as a secondary choice. So we'll see if others return to the platform, or like me decide to finally pay for Runway ML.
Great video! This technology is already pretty good but it will be much better in the near future when open source models will appear and we could do this offline at home, modifying the models as well and doing all sort of crazy experiments. :]
Any tips to relighting your input video to match the background? ive notice that the lighting can be wildly wrong. How slow does the motion need to be? Is this why every runway clip i see is moves with uncanny slowness? i hope there are fixes for these. you can only tell so many stories that are only slow motion shots.
This is the technology that would allow streaming sites to make different outputs into any style. Make Stsr Trek Lower Decks, Prodigy, The Animated Series live-action or make TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, ENT look Animated Or make Discovery and SNW look like TOS These are examples of what ai will be able to do in 5 years or less
The picture made by neuronets is still far away from clear image mady by traditional methods . It looks blurry, smudged, sharpedged and movements are often not natural.
Real live games can be made with simple low poly models, then rendered with ai into any look, if they could do this in live open world games There is no need for any rendering software
Hi! Thanks for your updates and enthusiasm! I can really relate to what you want to create! If I join your academy with a monthly subscription, besides the courses I watch from home and the live hours with you, do I also get discounts on Midjourney and Runway? Since I want to subscribe to these two tools but, first of all, I would like to learn how to make films or videos with AI. I should mention that I'm Italian and I speak and understand English fairly well. Thank you!
Results at any length beyond 3 seconds are frequently stricken with hallucinations that would take work by experienced VFX pros to fix. Not a viable production tool yet, if ever.
It's all far too expensive, most of the credits are spent on trial and error. And in the end you get a result that's OK. I'll save my money and see how good it is in a year or two and hopefully it will produce something usable straight away.
Working with Runway AI doesn't mean you understand what VFX really is... it certainly doesn't make you an expert, this is a layman's assessment. I think it would be appropriate if you could be honest about your own abilities in that context. A profession in an area means knowledge and understanding on a deeper level. In addition, I would like to say that I like this content and the presentation.
I’m very curious about how AI could be used to enhance video game graphics like in some of these examples here. There was that video and paper done using GTA V and training data from Germany (?) several years ago that was very fascinating and realistic without too much distortion, but I imagine it’ll still be at least several years until we see such technology implemented in real time.
These ‘expensive’ sets using unreal are actually cheap. Especially when you add actual people with skills. When you say this becomes irrelevant with this tool you are simply clueless about the craft in general. It pretty ridiculous. Do not forget. Everyone has a professional grade camera in their pocket. And 99% is still making shitty pictures. These tools are great for anyone that has artistic talent. The tools will never replace talent. So please do yourself a favor and don’t pretend you are a expert. You are showing a tool and still you need examples from other users to make a point. Learn light, learn unreal 3D, learn editing,learn grading. Learn sound design. Learn story telling. Then you will actually be able to create meaningful stuff with these tools. Do not be fooled by AI charlatans that pretend it’s all so easy. Making a great movie is never easy. Everyone can get pretty shots. Only a few have actually vision.
I am CC Subscriber. Where do I sign up to apply for the Firefly Video Beta. Can't see anything anywhere? You mentioned "just go to Adobe Blog page" but you didn't provide any details of the URL in the video or in your video description. Any clues :)
Does anyone know if this will work if you take a 9:16 clip and just flip it to a 16:9 to process and then flip it back for display? Or does it only understand the image as a 16:9 with the top pointing up?

How about programming in the personality of one person based on all their public content and the looks of another person to create your new character.
See: Malcolm quote in Jurassic Park.
hold on to your butts ?
Aw fab video Samson, thanks! The video to video in Runway looks awesome! Need to resub again clearly. It’s a juggling act!
Your great way of explaining the new iteration of AI movie generation in detail and with great examples just made me a subscriber - thanks for making these vids!
Welcome aboard!
I'm speechless 😮😮😮
:D
Thank you for your videos. I'm new to your channel but it's been my favorite channel on youtube in over a year. Love the videos, keep up the good work
This is the first video I've seen cover the features properly (and Tim did as well) instead of just passing one video through all the preset prompts, great stuff!
Thanks, I try to cover things comprehensively instead of trying to be the first
@@aisamsonreal Long term I think this shows through because as soon as one piece of news comes out in the AI space, everyone tries to jump on it asap and you end up watching the same non-instructive video several times and it''s definitely starting to grate generally
I haven't really seen too many people covering cool prompts they found that - arent' - in the presets for example.
- the channels that put extra effort and thought will win out long term so keep it up!
*goes out and buys wig.
Hey, thanks for that! BUT-- I gotta say that Samson wins for best Thumbnail! That is AMAZING!!
@@TheoreticallyMedia We're all going out to buy wigs
@TheoreticallyMedia 😂😂 the blonde wig comes in useful at last
I got that Cogvideo locally. Wow, it's gotten good. Great video as always thanks Samson.
Thanks!
Great video. I love your channel generally. I just thought I'd mention something to you about your reference to Mandalorian (not to correct you, but because you have a curious and interested mind so I figured you'd be interested to know this). You were describing green and blue screen effects when you showed the Mandalorian clips, but their effects work flow is actually a departure from that and have been shooting on a really cool set that is essentially a wrap-around video monitor. Look into it a bit and I bet you'll get a kick out of what they did instead of blue and green screens.
Great video (as always). I really like your channel!
Thanks! I appreciate that, I will take a look
I’m going to have fun with it. It’s like being involved kinda like making beats in a way. We deserve to tell our silly and creative stories visually.
As cool as it is… There’s almost no consistency whatsoever between shots. I think we’re all so fascinated by this new toy and how we can do just a few quick prompts and get something super cool, that we forget that there’s almost no rhyme or reason to the next output with the exact same prompt. It’s like herding cats. And it’s extremely addictive, so hours can be lost going for one specific shot, that can get to be very expensive if you don’t have the pro or ultimate plan. Then runway is trying to find another way to upcharge for extra little add on AI stuff. I’d say Hollywood is safe for now, they’ve still got the secret codes and prompts locked down, but the Genie will get all the way out of the bottle, it’s just a matter of time
Not worth subscribing IMO, way too expensive. The subscription credits are so little and most of the time the results sucks, you have to keep trying and trying until you get the results you want and it eats up your credits so fast. I cancelled my subscription. They need an option for unlimited because AI is not prefect.
You think it's expensive for AI to generate images and videos? Try hiring actors or/and a crew to shoot a scene, and we're not even talking about a set for your scene. You want to go cheaper? You can buy a powerful computer, buy Blender/ Maya, spend years learning how to create and animate a scene. You can also hired a fx artist to create a scene for you, wait for weeks, and hopefully the scene is exactly what you paid for, otherwise, it's a couple more weeks. Is runway perfect? No, but it's a lot cheaper then having to create the video you want from scratch.
It's definitely not worth the price of subscription unless you have the unlimited plan.
@@hieuluu2The point I’m trying to make is they are too expensive for what it is. It makes too much mistakes, for the credit it charges. It’s like gambling hoping to win, you just keep putting money in until you win.
@@hieuluu2it’s some kid sitting in his room who is talentless complaining that he can’t make a feature f-ing film for $5 that’s perfect. Complain complain complain. This kid has no idea what work is. Talentless people complain about everything.
Shame you really need to almost $100 a month option to get enough credits to play with.
You wouldn’t want to pay for credits because the results are so bad most of the time you need unlimited because it takes so many iterations to get a good result .
By their faulty nature, these are still toys but very likely to be proper tools so it's good that they're making money thanks to enthusiasts
@@tuna93 we're a professional media production company and we've used Runway Gen 3 for a major client's conference just last week and everyone loved the results.
So if you know how, Runway with Midjourney in combination with Fusion & After Effects and even Photoshop can most definitely be used for high end professional jobs.
Expensive simply because not a lot of competition. When Sora will be released the price of Runway will probably drop hard
They know that great open source models are coming, so they are milking the cow to get as much money as they can.
Correction: It's not called Hollywood Special Effects. It's properly called Visual Effects or VFX. Special Effects is specifically physical props and models.
Correct
Correction: he said "Hollywood LEVEL special effects",
@@hieuluu2 But still wrong.
as a vfx artist... its a special effect... so does it matter?
this one is special!!!
we got some effects police here.
That is a Fantastic Quote, and I 100% agree with it and your thoughts. Perfectly expressed, my Friend. I really love your updates and manner of speaking. Cheers and Best Wishes to you.
Thank you kindly, this is warmly received!
Wuhhh!!! OMG your demo at the beginning is epic!
It's an extremely impressive era we're in. There's been a huge leap in motion filter video technology. But what happens if everyone starts creating their own VFX? The world could become oversaturated with AI-generated works. Maybe AI platforms offering plans should raise their fees, or else the movie industry might become too common visually, losing its excitement.
the excitement should come the fact that you can create your own movies, ask an llm to write you a script based on your vague ideas then turn it into a movie that you can personally enjoy
How much does it cost to generate videos like these? Did it work in your first generation most of the time or did you have to generate multiple times to get what you want ?
"Runway" Ai software coming to a Psy-Op near you soon ... Think of the propaganda possibilities, govts can use this for?! ...
Special effects are real, practical. Visual effects are CGI, computer, digital. They are not the same thing :)
your thumbnail is HILARIOUS. good job
It is just a shame Runway is so expensive for how any credits you get to spend.
I hate these ai apps and people pawning them more than anything. It’s like giving someone Microsoft paint and making them believe they’re Michelangelo.
It’s like giving a kid a dictionary and telling him he is now Dickens.
Thank you for your video and for talking about my runway video. 😀
Thanks for your awesome work! I totally recommend checking out Zast on X:
x.com/zast57
Great video. Thanks for the inspiration!
Great info! Favorite part was the excellent quote at the end. 😉
Glad you liked it!
First Painting was caught up by photographing Then photos & videos by AI Is it bad / good Does the effort of making something yourself without AI still pays off ??…
Great video and examples! It shows a lot of potential, but I hope these A.I. video platforms will now focus more on maintaining a consistent character throughout multiple shots / videos. I mean, our own (fine tuned) characters and not the standard archetypes. All these A.I. video generators need to take the hurdle from short and funny video's to more comprehensive workflows and appropriate tools to tell more complex stories. I want to create my own virtual avatar and send him on adventures!
yeah the hollywood expensive sets gave the team full creative control, that Ai can not do
i know how amazing runway is,, all my videos are made because of runway so its highly appreciated lol. Its a game changer
Samson, thank you so much for everything you do. Your content is amazing. I was wondering, is there a way to make the character/protagonist consistent with this approach?
Thanks for featuring me!
Any time
I hope they will add an image option to the income, so we can tell the generator what we would like to see in the generated video. That would be a game-changer. Edit one single frame and make a whole video based on it. (Render a poor video, final render only one frame and you can save days.)
Amazing, the possibilities are endless.
Mr. Samson, does that mean we don't or won't need Motion Capture or Camera Tracking Anymore? Thanks for your time. Terry
I always wait for your every video
I appreciate that!
Me too!
You're my AI genius! And one of the people who got me started creating with AI! ❤
Same
A.I., man, you should have done the whole video as her 11:27, just to test the new features out! Lol. Good video anyway, as usual, don't worry dude, we still love you. 👍👍👍
Next time ;)
Firefly looks insane, but even tho I (have to) use Adobe, I really hope they don’t dominate. Like so many, I’m so sick of their greedy monopoly ways. Ai video is such a crazy Wild West right now and I’m loving it.
If this feature is perfected, there will be a huge impact in gen video world.
I am speechless in a good way😍
Your thumbnail epic
Thanks!
😂
Now we need good writers to come up with good stories and dialog. Modern Hollywood should be put to shame easily.
Thanks for your videos, I think you need to go a little deeper in the "how" and "why". For example : the dancing dude in green hoodie have a very bad bluescreen spill around him. This was not made with AI, they just added that flame in SCREEN, HARDLIGHT or ADD mode and used the background separately. If they cheat to promote their firefly module, that means they're not even close to be ready.
once this works in real time, with real time voice changing it will just be wtf is real. you won't be able to tell age gender or anything about someone online
I doubt this product will replace high end VFX. AI video tends to look contrasty and softer compared to the original source. To make matters worse, it even introduces visual errors as seen at 02:12.
However, AI can be implemented into existing VFX softwares as nodes that one can drop in to create interesting visual effects while still maintaining quality and consistency.
What will you create?
👋 hi
Maybe see how this tech handles copyright characters im starting with Gordon Freeman
We will attempt creating action scenes first
the end
a fairy me!
Very interesting and an excellent visuals in video. Thanks
The burning question to AI creators still hasn't been answered. "Why?"
it's going to be to save money isn't that obvious?
(and time)
To cut out most of the actually crewtive people so that everything will suck.
People were starting to put Runway ML as a secondary choice. So we'll see if others return to the platform, or like me decide to finally pay for Runway ML.
interesting and promising. Once mature this will be truly mindblowing for creative types.
Great video! This technology is already pretty good but it will be much better in the near future when open source models will appear and we could do this offline at home, modifying the models as well and doing all sort of crazy experiments. :]
Any tips to relighting your input video to match the background? ive notice that the lighting can be wildly wrong. How slow does the motion need to be? Is this why every runway clip i see is moves with uncanny slowness?
i hope there are fixes for these. you can only tell so many stories that are only slow motion shots.
This kind of software could be standard on future devices.
This is the technology that would allow streaming sites to make different outputs into any style.
Make Stsr Trek Lower Decks, Prodigy, The Animated Series live-action or make TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, ENT look Animated
Or make Discovery and SNW look like TOS
These are examples of what ai will be able to do in 5 years or less
Christ on a bike! This is now like dream sculpting…wow!
Very good presentation.
adobe didn't just train it with their stock library... their underhanded tactic also used imagery from every user until the massive backlash.
So Hollywood is officially dead
The king is dead, long live the king
😂
Hopefully it does
Any new movies? None. Hollywood died last year
If film is all about vfx then Yep. But it’s more than that, probably this will expose all the nonsense
Does it work with text say for example replacing what a sign in the real world says?
The picture made by neuronets is still far away from clear image mady by traditional methods . It looks blurry, smudged, sharpedged and movements are often not natural.
Is there a video length limitation in Runway Gen 3, in terms of trasforming a video?
Amazing!! Wow this is some true Ai video next level break through
Glad you liked it
Real live games can be made with simple low poly models, then rendered with ai into any look, if they could do this in live open world games
There is no need for any rendering software
Hi! Thanks for your updates and enthusiasm! I can really relate to what you want to create! If I join your academy with a monthly subscription, besides the courses I watch from home and the live hours with you, do I also get discounts on Midjourney and Runway? Since I want to subscribe to these two tools but, first of all, I would like to learn how to make films or videos with AI.
I should mention that I'm Italian and I speak and understand English fairly well. Thank you!
Hollywood level? Em... no, but fun to play with.
Awesome Ai Runway!!!!!
honestly, nothing is going to be interesting anymore.... Things already feel unreal enough.
waooo!!! everybody can be an artist now with those tools or the artist is the tool itself?
Results at any length beyond 3 seconds are frequently stricken with hallucinations that would take work by experienced VFX pros to fix. Not a viable production tool yet, if ever.
It's all far too expensive, most of the credits are spent on trial and error. And in the end you get a result that's OK. I'll save my money and see how good it is in a year or two and hopefully it will produce something usable straight away.
Working with Runway AI doesn't mean you understand what VFX really is... it certainly doesn't make you an expert, this is a layman's assessment. I think it would be appropriate if you could be honest about your own abilities in that context. A profession in an area means knowledge and understanding on a deeper level. In addition, I would like to say that I like this content and the presentation.
Imagine this in 10+ years, everything will change...
I want api for minimax and character consistency. also, complete movie machine that also adds cloned voiced from script. one prompt to complete movie.
I’m very curious about how AI could be used to enhance video game graphics like in some of these examples here. There was that video and paper done using GTA V and training data from Germany (?) several years ago that was very fascinating and realistic without too much distortion, but I imagine it’ll still be at least several years until we see such technology implemented in real time.
Is there a comfyUI workflow and models to do this?
Many Thanks, my Brother!! Instant sub. Cheers
Welcome!
These ‘expensive’ sets using unreal are actually cheap. Especially when you add actual people with skills. When you say this becomes irrelevant with this tool you are simply clueless about the craft in general. It pretty ridiculous. Do not forget. Everyone has a professional grade camera in their pocket. And 99% is still making shitty pictures. These tools are great for anyone that has artistic talent. The tools will never replace talent. So please do yourself a favor and don’t pretend you are a expert. You are showing a tool and still you need examples from other users to make a point. Learn light, learn unreal 3D, learn editing,learn grading. Learn sound design. Learn story telling. Then you will actually be able to create meaningful stuff with these tools. Do not be fooled by AI charlatans that pretend it’s all so easy. Making a great movie is never easy. Everyone can get pretty shots. Only a few have actually vision.
I am CC Subscriber. Where do I sign up to apply for the Firefly Video Beta. Can't see anything anywhere? You mentioned "just go to Adobe Blog page" but you didn't provide any details of the URL in the video or in your video description. Any clues :)
Does anyone know if this will work if you take a 9:16 clip and just flip it to a 16:9 to process and then flip it back for display? Or does it only understand the image as a 16:9 with the top pointing up?
Interesting idea! I will try it out
So, if I understand you right, by "credits" do you mean you have to pay actual money, just to muck about, even though it looks like crud ?
Amazing!
Thanks!

Thanks a lot for teaching us about all this crazy breakthroughs, what a great summary! Only downnote and it's no regarding technology: let's stop labelling older women as less attractive, please. The younger version is just that: younger. :)
