00:00.480 --> 00:02.280
-: Okay, let's use Runway ML

00:02.280 --> 00:04.770
to start creating some stock footage

00:04.770 --> 00:07.213
or B-roll as they call it in the industry.

00:07.213 --> 00:09.360
So, you're gonna start with some text.

00:09.360 --> 00:11.670
I'm just gonna paste in this prompt here

00:11.670 --> 00:13.710
and we're gonna hit generate.

00:13.710 --> 00:15.150
And what that's gonna do

00:15.150 --> 00:17.730
is gonna generate using this prompt,

00:17.730 --> 00:20.370
like generate five seconds worth of video.

00:20.370 --> 00:21.457
And you can add styles to it

00:21.457 --> 00:22.920
and stuff like that.

00:22.920 --> 00:25.221
Afterwards you can also set different camera motions

00:25.221 --> 00:27.330
and things like that, but just to give you

00:27.330 --> 00:30.360
a sense of the type of thing that you can do here.

00:30.360 --> 00:32.610
Now, one thing I would recommend

00:32.610 --> 00:35.100
is that there are like specific words

00:35.100 --> 00:37.380
that are quite useful in these types of prompts.

00:37.380 --> 00:40.080
And so like masterpiece, classic, cinematic.

00:40.080 --> 00:41.490
Here we've used cinematic.

00:41.490 --> 00:42.900
It also helps to show

00:42.900 --> 00:46.110
what is it like, what is the actual format drone shot

00:46.110 --> 00:48.360
in this case top down.

00:48.360 --> 00:49.830
And so where's the camera coming from?

00:49.830 --> 00:51.510
Is it full shot? Is it close up?

00:51.510 --> 00:54.450
Is it macro lens, wide angle, slow pan, zoom?

00:54.450 --> 00:56.615
If you can use camera specific terms,

00:56.615 --> 00:58.350
it is much better at that

00:58.350 --> 01:00.060
'cause that's what it was trained at.

01:00.060 --> 01:02.400
And then just, then give an example

01:02.400 --> 01:04.260
of what it is that you're trying to show.

01:04.260 --> 01:07.170
If you want to use Runway, actually it's,

01:07.170 --> 01:08.760
it does have some free credits

01:08.760 --> 01:10.577
at least at the time of recording

01:10.577 --> 01:13.260
and it can, you can generate up to,

01:13.260 --> 01:15.750
I think it's like a hundred seconds worth of video.

01:15.750 --> 01:16.710
It's five seconds each.

01:16.710 --> 01:18.300
So you do the math,

01:18.300 --> 01:22.380
but it's, you know, pretty good for B-roll in particular.

01:22.380 --> 01:25.409
And if you're using this for your own projects and things,

01:25.409 --> 01:27.420
and it's not Hollywood level obviously,

01:27.420 --> 01:28.890
but if you don't have access

01:28.890 --> 01:31.980
to Hollywood level funds then you know this is super cheap

01:31.980 --> 01:35.100
and it can generate, I think with generation two,

01:35.100 --> 01:38.250
the gen two model it is like, good enough I would say

01:38.250 --> 01:42.360
to generate stuff for your own hobbyist projects, right?

01:42.360 --> 01:44.550
So you can see how quickly that happened.

01:44.550 --> 01:45.788
It's generated the video

01:45.788 --> 01:47.570
and you can click play now

01:47.570 --> 01:49.063
and there you go.

01:50.217 --> 01:53.100
And it's showing the forest, which is pretty cool.

01:53.100 --> 01:55.560
Now if you wanted to change the style,

01:55.560 --> 01:57.120
you know different things here,

01:57.120 --> 02:00.960
it has a lot of examples that you can use,

02:00.960 --> 02:02.640
that it might recommend.

02:02.640 --> 02:05.910
And if you click on one of those styles,

02:05.910 --> 02:09.150
then that will add that to the prompt essentially.

02:09.150 --> 02:11.490
You can also choose the camera motion.

02:11.490 --> 02:13.950
So if you wanted to pan it to a certain side,

02:13.950 --> 02:15.180
yeah you could do that as well.

02:15.180 --> 02:17.430
Feel free to mess around with those.

02:17.430 --> 02:19.320
You can also start from an image.

02:19.320 --> 02:22.350
If you have a specific image that you wanted to animate,

02:22.350 --> 02:24.240
now you can do that or you know,

02:24.240 --> 02:26.100
have the prompt and the image as well.

02:26.100 --> 02:27.570
Yeah, enjoy Runway.

02:27.570 --> 02:30.000
There's a bunch of cool stuff you can do here.

02:30.000 --> 02:32.250
Once you have your footage, you can actually then click

02:32.250 --> 02:34.350
to extend it if you want as well.

02:34.350 --> 02:35.430
If you need to,

02:35.430 --> 02:36.750
if five seconds isn't enough.

02:36.750 --> 02:39.299
If you want to download, by the way, the button is here

02:39.299 --> 02:41.880
and it helps to just rate these

02:41.880 --> 02:43.920
'cause it gives feedback to the Runway team.

02:43.920 --> 02:44.823
Alright, enjoy.
