# Runway

Generative video and image models. The motion end of Visual Reference Prompting, and the competition Burlap came out of.

Runway is a generative video and image studio, the motion end of [Visual Reference Prompting](/transmissions/visual-reference-prompting/). Maker: Runway AI, Inc. [runwayml.com](https://runwayml.com/)

[Burlap](/conspiracies/burlap/) connects to Runway. I entered Runway’s 48-hour film competition in the spring of 2025, and Burlap came out of that.

> The toolchain was just unworkable, just completely unworked for anything I wanted to do or how I thought a professional workspace should be.
