Overview
About Runway Gen4
Runway Gen4 is the director's tool — built for filmmakers who need precise control over composition, camera, and edits. It exposes more directorial parameters than any other video model: camera path control, motion brushes, keyframe interpolation, and frame-level inpainting. Gen4 is what production teams use when the output has to land on a timeline.

Questions
Frequently asked
What makes Runway Gen4 different from Veo or Sora?
Gen4 prioritizes director-level controls — camera paths, motion brushes, keyframes, and frame-precise inpainting — over raw photoreal output. It's the model for production work.
Does Runway Gen4 support video-to-video?
Yes. Restyle existing footage, change weather, swap subjects, or apply complete style transfers to source video.
Can I get Runway Gen4 without a Runway subscription?
Yes. Skyvid offers Gen4 through pay-as-you-go credits — no Runway subscription required.
How is Gen4 priced compared to Gen3?
Gen4 costs slightly more per second but delivers materially better output and adds new controls (motion brush, keyframe interpolation) not available in Gen3.
