📚 How To

How To Transform Your Videos into Any Art Style:

  1. Go to the Runway AI website.

  2. Sign up for Runway AI and explore the available AI tools and features.

  3. Click on the "Gen 1 Video to Video AI" tool. It allows you to transform your footage using AI.

  4. Drag and drop your video footage onto the tool's interface. Note that there's currently a 15-second limit for processing with the AI.

  5. On the right-hand side, you'll find various options, including style references, image presets, and prompts. Focus on using the prompts for the most fun and creative results.

  6. Type in your desired prompt for the AI to generate the style you want for your video. You can experiment with various prompts for different effects.

  7. Before generating the video, click on the "Advanced" settings to customize the output further.

  8. Adjust the "Structural Consistency" slider to control how different the structure of the video will be from the original. Higher values make it more different, while lower values keep it closer to the original.

  9. Use the "Weight" slider to determine whether the AI should focus more on the original video style or the prompt you provided.

  10. Explore other settings, such as "Frame Consistency" and "Upscale" for higher quality, and choose whether to "Effect Foreground Only" or "Effect Background Only."

  11. Once you've made all the desired settings, click on "Generate Video." The processing time may vary based on the length of your video.

  12. After the AI finishes processing, play the example to see the transformed footage.

  13. Download the generated video to your computer.

  14. If you want to integrate the AI-transformed footage into your main video project, ensure it is properly scaled up to match your project's resolution.

  15. To make the transition smoother, add keyframes to the opacity to fade the AI effect in and out over a few frames.

  16. Optionally, you can add a bit of noise to give the video a unique touch.

  17. Implement the AI-transformed footage into your main project, experimenting with different prompts and effects to achieve your desired style.

  18. If interested, explore editing packs on the Runway AI creator's website to enhance your workflow and make your videos more unique.

  19. Continue experimenting with the Runway AI tool to create fascinating and creative video styles using AI technology.
