This one also edits. The Aleph output names the target element, states exactly what must stay untouched, matches grain and grade to the original plate, and warns you that frame-to-frame flicker is the usual failure. Editing an approved shot costs a fraction of regenerating it — which matters more now that Runway prices by credits rather than unlimited plans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAct-Two performance capture, explained properly\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFilm yourself performing the beat, supply a character reference, and Runway transfers your expressions, head motion and body language onto the character. The brief covers how to frame and light the driving video, when to add voice control, and why subtle expressions transfer more reliably than large ones. That is a workflow, not a prompt, and it is the thing Runway does that the other models do not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt for directing, not describing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShot size leads the prompt\u003c\/strong\u003e — not the subject.
