This reference lists all available Runway ML video generation models and their parameters. Use these parameter names when calling the Generation API.


Model ID: model_runway-gen4-aleph

Capabilities: video2video

LLM Markdown: https://app.scenario.com/api/models/model_runway-gen4-aleph/markdown

ParameterTypeRequiredDefaultMinMaxAllowed ValuesDescription
promptstringYes----Text prompt for video generation
videofileYes----Input video to generate from. Videos must be less than 16MB. Only 5s of the input video will be used.
referenceImagesfile_arrayNo----Up to 3 reference images to influence the style or content of the output.
seednumberNo----Use a seed for reproducible results. Leave blank to use a random seed.

Edit any video using a text prompt, with optional reference images pinned to specific moments for precise, frame-level control.

Model ID: model_runway-aleph-2

Capabilities: video2video

LLM Markdown: https://app.scenario.com/api/models/model_runway-aleph-2/markdown

ParameterTypeRequiredDefaultMinMaxAllowed ValuesDescription
promptstringYes----Describe how you want the video to look or feel after editing โ€” style, atmosphere, visual changes. For example: โ€˜transform into a noir film with high contrast and rain-soaked streetsโ€™.
videofileYes----The source video to edit. Maximum 30 seconds and 16 MB. The model rewrites its visuals based on your prompt while preserving the original motion and structure.
keyframesinputs_arrayNo----Pin reference images to specific moments in the video to guide the edit at those points. Add up to 5 keyframes. Use Seconds or Position to set each oneโ€™s timing.
promptImageinputs_arrayNo----Alternative to Keyframes โ€” pin reference images to moments in the output video. Cannot be used together with Keyframes. Add up to 5 images.
seednumberNo-04294967295-A number that locks in the randomness of the generation. Copy the seed from a result you liked to reproduce it exactly, or leave blank for a new result each time.

The Turbo version of Gen-4 delivers further enhanced speeds at a lower cost, and is a powerful model for quickly iterating ideas.

Model ID: model_runway-gen4-turbo

Capabilities: img2video

LLM Markdown: https://app.scenario.com/api/models/model_runway-gen4-turbo/markdown

ParameterTypeRequiredDefaultMinMaxAllowed ValuesDescription
promptstringYes----Describe your video
imagefileYes----Image used as the first frame of the video.
aspectRatiostringNo1280:720--1584:672, 1280:720, 1104:832, 960:960, 832:1104, 720:1280Aspect ratio of the video. Ignored if first frame is provided.
durationnumberNo5210-Duration in seconds
seednumberNo----Use a seed for reproducible results. Leave blank to use a random seed.

Gen-4.5 is state-of-the-art and sets a new standard for video generation motion quality, prompt adherence and visual fidelity.

Model ID: model_runway-gen4-5
