In the Runway editor, once your first 4-second clip is generated, you can click the 'Extend Video' button. This will use the last frame of your current clip as the starting point for the next 4 seconds. You can repeat this multiple times to create longer sequences.

Yes, you can export with a green background for easy compositing.

How does this compare to Sora? We're still waiting for that one.

You need the Pro or Unlimited plan for 4K exports.

I've been using Gen-3 and the consistency is mind-blowing.
