Format mix
Consensus and debate
Shared view
AI advertising and contests is the largest supplied theme: 9 tweets (34.6%). Evidence includes a singing-ad workflow, a Big Ad Contest winner and a deliberately nostalgic commercial.
Shared view
The cited Aleph posts describe changing requested elements while preserving camera motion and scene context. Examples include a horse-to-unicorn transformation and edits carried across clips. These are creator reports, not independent quality tests.
Shared view
THE CLEAN3R uses Seedance 2.0 inside Runway, with DaVinci Resolve for editing, Magnific for upscaling and Suno for music. A fantasy-series test combines Runway-hosted Kling and Nano Banana Pro with Midjourney, Suno and DaVinci Resolve.
Open debate
An Aleph product-variant post says no reshoot or editor was needed, while a VSL workflow explicitly retains a human editor for pacing and emotional timing. These address selective asset changes versus assembling a finished ad, rather than directly contradicting each other.
Open debate
Workflows and real-time prompting posts showcase creative interfaces. A separate opinion argues that interfaces and agentic workflows are quickly copied, questioning what keeps users loyal. This is a differentiation concern, not a comparative model benchmark.
What performs
AI filmmaking workflows has a median all-time score of 47.57, versus 12.225 for advertising and contests and 3.83 for creative tools and apps. This is a descriptive comparison within the sample; it does not establish why posts performed differently.
The singing-ad tutorial scores 188.98 in the supplied benchmarks, 18.92 times the sample median. The Characters gaming demo is the next listed outlier at 113.38, or 11.35 times the median. These posts cover different applications rather than a single product category.
Tutorials account for 6 posts (23.1%) with a median all-time score of 12.97; announcements account for 18 (69.2%) with a median of 9.71. The singing-ad and Aleph tutorials illustrate the instructional format, without proving a causal engagement advantage.

How to make singing ad videos that are blowing up rn Full breakdown of the exact tools and workflow 👇 Step 1: Generate the music and lyrics Use Suno AI or Udio to create the song Prompt: "Upbeat, musical theater, Disney/Pixar style, female vocals, storytelling about [your product], 128 BPM" You can write your own lyrics (hmu if u can) or use Claude to draft a rhyming script first Step 2: Create your character Use Nano Banana for a consistent 3D character The master prompt: "3D Disney Pixar style, a woman with messy curly brown hair, expressive eyes, wearing a white t-shirt, soft cinematic lighting, 8k render, high detail" Save the seed number or use character reference to keep her looking the same across all scenes Step 3: Animation and lip-sync Scene generation: Use Luma Dream Machine or Runway Upload your character image and prompt (e.g., "Woman jumping rope in a gym, Pixar style") Lip-syncing: Use HeyGen or Sync Labs Upload your video clip and your audio file from step 1 The AI will re-animate the character's mouth to match the singing perfectly Dzine AI also works great for hyper-smooth lip-syncing on animated characters Step 4: Edit it all together Use CapCut Add auto captions with bold centered text that pops as words are spoken Use templates like "The Bold" or "Glossy" Add overlays like product diagrams or comparison charts using simple PNG images We're testing this format for a few clients right now and the engagement is crazy People watch these way longer than standard ads *we didn't make this ad

Using Runway Character's API, I built a character with the entire map knowledge base of Bungie's latest title @MarathonTheGame. It can read the screen, guide you to objectives, and help you decide which valuables to extract. Just a preview of how gaming will change with AI.

Happy to announce that I've received the 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐞 on @runwayml's Big Ad Contest Award. I'm always keeping an eye on AI competitions and AI festivals, but this one was special for me because Runway was the first video AI tool that I've ever tried in my life. Since then they became giants in the AI space, supporting artists and integrating many models in their suite, also I would encourage everyone to follow @c_valenzuelab on Twitter for some deeper thoughts about the future of AI. The other reason is I've only realized the deadline was only days away, which forced me to ditch any complicated ideas and keep it very simple. And as it is with moving images: sometimes less is more. After seeing the top25 finalists I also had to realize that the bar has raised, last year you could post a 15 second demo and hundreds of comments would flood, but now - finally - we are back to the purpose of any media: to tell something words can't tell, tell a story, and have a message behind the cinema screen. I'll post the top 25 finalists in the comments so if you have time you can check out the artists and their work. Also planning to somehow help the local AI artists here in Vietnam, as soon as I have the plan for the best way to do so, will post about it later.

THE CLEAN3R The third installment in my AI series coming soon. Made entirely using Seedance 2.0 inside Runway. Edited in Davinci Resolve. Video upscale in Magnific. Music created with Suno. "Just one more job..."
@laszlogaal_ ·
For the Runway Big Ad Contest I wanted to create something simple, that brings back some memories of the early 2000s commercials. I chose Japan as the location, maybe because the story fit perfectly the museum islands: Teshima and Naoshima, wooden houses, amazing mountains and magical tiny islands. Also the location enabled to use all the cliches, including the battery mascots at the end. This story could work better in a long form 90 or 120 second length, but rules are rules! Look wise I was going for a very grainy 16mm look - like if it was shot 1-2 stops under - , grabbed the settings that I’ve tested during my AI to film transfer, but adjusted it for a more contrasty, early 2000 cinematic look. #RunwayBigAdContest

Introducing Runway Aleph 2.0. Edit videos using AI, keeping camera and motion all consistent. Select specific frames in your video to reprompt with GPT Images 2.0 or Nano Banana 2, then apply it to the entire video. Here's my full tutorial:
@ivanka_humeniuk ·
Always dreamed of filming myself riding a unicorn 🦄 Just uploaded my own riding footage into Aleph 2.0 by @runwayml and asked it in one sentence to turn my horse into a unicorn. Everything else — me, the saddle, the arena, the way he moves — stayed exactly the same. This isn't regeneration, this is real video editing. Aleph 2.0 is live on Runway: https://t.co/PBBXG5zSUk 22% off 2 months of Runway Pro with code ALEPH2 (valid through May 31) #MadeWithRunway
@rovvmut_ ·
Been playing around with Runway’s Aleph 2.0 and it genuinely feels like a big step forward for AI video editing. What stands out is how it edits only the part you prompt instead of regenerating the whole shot. The lighting, camera motion, reflections, and scene continuity all stay intact, which makes the results feel way more natural. Even better, it can carry those edits consistently across multiple clips in the same sequence. This feels less like "AI video generation" and more like a real editing workflow. Aleph 2.0 is live now on Runway: https://t.co/reQ4wDMX66 Use code ALEPH2 for 22% off Runway Pro until May 31. #MadeWithRunway @runwayml
@Damn_coder ·
I thought making multiple versions of the same video meant reshooting everything. Then I tried Aleph 2.0 in @runwayml I took one clip and changed specific parts using simple text instructions: → changed the style → updated the look → created a new variation The wild part? It only changed what I asked for. The camera movement, composition, and everything else stayed intact. This feels less like video editing and more like editing a document: - Describe the change. - Preview it. - Apply it. If you create content, ads, or product videos, this can save hours of production work. Aleph 2.0 is live on Runway now - https://t.co/QWz9sJblo7

AI doesn't edit your VSL. Let me be clear about that upfront. What AI does is eliminate the 6-8 hours your video editor spends hunting for stock footage and writing briefs for what they need. Here's how the production process actually works: Step 1: Your script is approved. You or the founder records A-roll — talking head on iPhone 14+ in a clean, well-lit room. Dark or simple backgrounds outperform busy ones for direct response. Use a teleprompter app. Record at 130-150 words per minute — slower than feels natural because the viewer is reading captions at the same time. Step 2: Feed the approved script into Claude with a B-roll extraction prompt. For every sentence or logical unit in the script, Claude outputs: scene type (problem visual, solution visual, proof visual, authority visual, lifestyle visual, product visual), a specific visual description in plain English, a generation prompt formatted for Midjourney or Runway, and whether the asset should be static or motion. Step 3: Output is a CSV — your production manifest. Script line, scene type, description, generation prompt, asset type. This goes directly to your video editor as their brief. Step 4: Generate all static assets in Midjourney. Generate all motion assets in Runway. Your editor now has every b-roll clip labeled, timestamped, and ready to drop in. Step 5: Your editor assembles the final cut — pacing, transitions, caption styling, color, the feel of the ad. This is the part you don't automate. The editor is what makes it feel like a real ad, not a slideshow. What this process eliminates: your editor spending hours searching stock footage sites, you going back and forth on "what kind of image should go here," and the miscommunication between creative direction and what actually gets produced. The AI generates assets. The human assembles them. That split is intentional. We've tested fully automated edits and they're not there yet. The editor's judgment on pacing and emotional timing is still the difference between a 2x and a 5x ROAS VSL.

Earlier this week, we launched Runway Characters which represents a new type of real-time interaction with AI. These kinds of immersive simulated experiences are going to reshape the way we experience and engage with the internet. Building a technology this powerful means grappling with how it might be misused. Learn more at the link below about how we're building responsibly towards this new internet.

The idea that video models are too expensive to deploy does not make sense to me, and it usually comes from organizations that don’t understand the potential and surface area of the technology. If you believe, as I do, that video models are on the critical path to general intelligence, then it becomes a P0 problem to solve. It’s important to advance capabilities and efficiency at the same time. Improvements in efficiency help us deploy the models more widely and train them faster. People associate Runway with bringing new capabilities and control to video generation, but our work in making those models more efficient has been just as critical to getting them in front of tens of millions of users and 90% of the Fortune 100. We've invested in making video diffusion fast for a long time, bringing a distilled video model to market (Gen-3 Alpha Turbo) before anyone else. And we recently had to build an entirely new model serving stack from scratch to support real-time interactivity and instant generation as we start to deploy GWM-1 and our next world models. General, interactive world models will have a huge multiple of impact compared to traditional video models, and to get there you need a research organization that both understands how important those models are, and is insanely obsessive about getting the low-level details right. Here's a good place to contact such an organization: https://t.co/x6FBFRdN3p

Earlier this week, we brought nearly 700 leaders together in New York for @runwayml's inaugural AI Summit — and the energy in the room made one thing clear: the creative industry is at an inflection point. Across media, entertainment, gaming, advertising, and legal, two themes emerged consistently: Taste and transparency matter as much as capability. And the companies that will lead tomorrow are the ones embracing AI today. -Kathleen Kennedy of @Lucasfilm reminded us that taste is fundamental to the art of filmmaking — and that AI, in the right hands, will help us tell even better stories. -@HElsakr19489 (@Adobe) and @philwiser (@paramountco) shared how their organizations are navigating AI adoption honestly — leaning into the possibilities while being clear-eyed about the realities. -Creative principals at UNVEIL Studio and @Silverside_AI pushed this further: for them, AI isn't just a tool. It is the medium. -Christopher Harrelson of Why Brands shared a striking data point: designers using Runway have seen a 5x efficiency gain — enabling more work, faster iteration, and higher-quality outputs. Runway's own @theeddylee grounded it all in a sobering reality: only 10% of US businesses use AI in production, and 55% of corporate communications are still text-only, even as video drives 70% of internet traffic. The gap between where most companies are and where they need to be is wide. Can't wait to see what our next summit (un)covers!

Some quick experiments on 'multi-reference stacking' using @runwayml new 'Multi-Shot' app. You've only currently got one image slot, but you can montage them in one image as an input. 😎👍 - Rather than using Photoshop (time consuming!) - you can use NanoBanana or Seedream to generate you the montage reference by using their multi-inputs (up to 14 !) and some instructions not to change the content with no overlaps. - I did this with NB in Workflows as its a bit more visual and easier to swap them in and out. - The the results are surprisingly good (these were with my Runway Big Ad Contest 'Nothing Burger' ad refs) - will need some more testing to see if i can improve this further. This is particularly useful if you want to give more context and emphasis to the elements of your sequence. Hope this is useful! 😄 🍔🥤 p.s. Oh yes, if you want to see my submitted ad: 'Nothing Burger' - see the link in the thread! 👇

"Chronicles of Darius" I grew up watching Saturday morning cartoons and one of my favorites was the short-lived Dungeons & Dragons animated series. I always wanted to create something in that style, but never had the time or resources to do it. Last night, using Runway (with Kling 3.0 multi-shot and keyframes, and Nano Banana Pro), Midjourney, and Suno, I created this scene as a test for a fictional 80s fantasy series. Edited in DaVinci Resolve. I never thought this would be possible, yet here we are. There are still some rough edges, but this was just one evening. Runway's clean UI makes working on these projects a lot of fun.

Every interface, feature, workflow, app, modality are getting copied into existing AI creative platforms faster than ever. ComfyUI was the leader in node-based workflows for a year or two before Weavy and Flora and others came onto the scene. 6-9months later, Krea, Runway, Freepik, etc. all have node-based workflows. In early 2026, we started to see rumblings of agentic models for creation. Luma Agents, OiiOii, CapCut/Dreamina, Flora, Runway, (we've also seen lot more in stealth) etc. have all launched agentic workflows (btw, this is distinct from multi-shot, which Sora2, Seedance, Kling, etc. are capable of) within the last 2 months. Layering chat on top of workflows to make AI creation feel more seamless is now getting commoditized fast. This is felt even more distinctly in the pure software space. It's so easy to take an interface and remix it, reverse engineer it, etc. I'm genuinely not sure what keeps users around, as a result: marketing and discounting tokens? That can't last forever. Users are notoriously disloyal post-ChatGPT. For AI creation workflows, this is profoundly exciting, because I don't think we've hit yet at the stickiest modality to harness the power of the foundation image and video models. But this also means the AI companies have to ship SUPER fast to keep their users' attention spans and address their creative needs.
