The big idea
Tools like Runway can generate short video clips from a text prompt or a single image. They're powerful — and easy to misuse — so being thoughtful about what you generate matters.
Some examples
- Generate a 4-second establishing shot for a school project.
- Animate a still illustration into a moving scene.
- Test five prompts to learn what wording works best.
- Skip generating real people without their consent — even celebrities.
Try it!
Pick a scene you can't film. Generate it as a 4-second clip and decide if it adds to your story.
