Runway Gen4 isn't just an incremental update; it's a foundational shift. Built on a completely new architecture, it delivers massive improvements over previous versions:
The overall look of the generated video is noticeably better. While not perfect, the output is cleaner, sharper, and more believable.
What this actually means: You'll see that textures on surfaces like wood or fabric appear less artificial. The model has a much better grasp of how light and shadow should work, leading to scenes with more realistic depth and mood. The output is less "dreamy" and more grounded.
This is the most critical update for anyone trying to tell a story. The model is now far better at keeping characters and objects looking the same from one moment to the next.
What this actually means: If you generate a character with a specific face and outfit, those features are significantly less likely to morph or change as the scene progresses. A character's shirt will stay the same color, and their face will remain recognizable, which was a major hurdle in past versions. This makes creating coherent, multi-shot scenes a realistic possibility.
Gen-4 is better at understanding and executing specific instructions in your prompt, giving you more influence over the final shot.
What this actually means: You can now use more specific cinematic language and expect a more faithful result. For example, prompts requesting camera movements like a "slow pan" or "tracking shot" are interpreted more reliably. You also have finer control over the physics and motion within the scene, making animations feel more intentional.
Despite the increase in quality, Gen-4 is also significantly faster, allowing you to iterate on your ideas more quickly.
The potential applications for Gen-4 are vast and exciting. Here are just a few ideas to get you started:
Filmmaking and Storyboarding: Quickly create animated storyboards or test scenes for a film. You can generate different camera angles of the same scene to find the perfect shot.
Marketing and Advertising: Produce eye-catching video ads and social media content in minutes without needing a large production budget.
Digital Art and Music Videos: Artists and musicians can bring their wildest visual ideas to life, creating surreal and stunning animated pieces that match their creative vision.
Product Visualization: Showcase products from every angle by placing a consistent object in various settings and conditions.
Harness multiple best-in-class AI models within a single, unified workflow.
An intuitive, results-oriented interface that accelerates your creative process.
Get inspired, share your work, and connect with top creators.
The biggest innovation in Gen-4 is its ability to maintain character, object, and scene consistency across multiple shots. This allows for more coherent and narrative-driven video creation, which was a major challenge for previous generations.
Absolutely not! Gen-4 is designed for artists and creators of all backgrounds. If you can describe a scene in words or provide a reference image, you can create a video. Somake's easy-to-use platform makes it even more accessible.
Yes! Gen-4 is designed to work with both text prompts and visual references. You can upload an image of a character or object to maintain its consistency while generating new scenes.
