💥 Runway: AI video editor
Plus: Lemon8, Twitter's ridiculous API pricing, PewDiePie on Twitch
Hi everyone,
Finally getting some warmer weather here in Canada. Ski season’s over (this winter seemed shorter than others), but excited to be able to drive properly again 🙏
Today, let’s dive deep into an AI product that I believe will change the content creation game for early adopters 🤖
I’m using it extensively within our studio, and the speed that these guys are implementing new features is just mindblowing.
Give it up for Runway 👏
1/ Runway.ml 🎥
Runway is a web-based video editor, which happens to have tons of creative, cutting-edge AI features.
Runway’s bold claim
Let’s look at some of its features that went viral on social media 👇
🔹 Removing unwanted parts from video (inpainting)
Gone are the days of fidgeting around with a lasso tool and masks to remove that pesky logo. Runway makes it super easy 🤯
@runwayml Turn hours of editing into a few simple clicks ⚡️ Try it yourself at app.runwayml.com
🔹 Editing video with text prompts (ChatGPT for video editing?)
“Remove all the trees”
“Change the sky to a darker shade of blue”
… are some of the prompts you can use to change the video to a specific context.

Runway is becoming the crowd-favourite when it comes to an AI based video-editor for the web browser.
It’s easy to see why. Mastery of these AI-based video editing features will save tons of time, as well as produce effects that were previously not possible 🌠
I personally love experimenting with new AI features for content-creation. Are you on the same boat?
