10 steps ~45min For marketers Free

Runway AI is a video generation and editing platform that turns text prompts, images, and clips into polished short videos. Its Gen-2 model creates video from text descriptions, and tools like Motion Brush and Inpainting let you control movement and edit specific parts of each frame. On aidowith.me, the Reels and Short Videos route has 10 steps that show you how to use Runway AI to create scroll-stopping content for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. You'll write video prompts, control camera motion, add transitions, and export in the right format for each platform. The route covers both text-to-video generation and AI-assisted editing of existing footage. You'll make your first complete short video within 45 minutes. No video editing experience needed. By the end, you'll have a repeatable workflow for producing 3-5 short videos per week using Runway's tools.

Questions

Yes. Runway's Gen-2 generates short video clips from text prompts, and its editing tools (Motion Brush, Inpainting, style transfer) give you precise control over the result. The 10-step route on aidowith.me shows you which features work best for short-form social content and how to use them together for a polished result.

Runway has a free tier with limited credits and a Standard plan at $12/month that gives you 625 credits (roughly 125 seconds of Gen-2 video). For regular short video production, the Standard plan covers about 5-10 short clips per month. The Pro plan at $28/month gives you more credits for higher volume.

No. Runway's interface is built for people without traditional editing skills. The route on aidowith.me walks you through every tool and feature you'll use. You type text prompts, adjust sliders, and Runway handles the rendering. Most people create their first usable video within the first 20 minutes of the route.
