Video production training
Theory couldn't teach modern video skills. Now, business students use Runway to master cinematography and artistic direction.
- 200+ students gaining AI video experience
Students wrestled with manual VFX workflows. AI automated the tech, letting them produce 3 minutes of finished video in a single night.
A prestigious graduate film program integrates traditional directing techniques, from the Meisner method to blocking, into a curriculum designed for rapid creative iteration.
Students spent their time wrestling with complex technology rather than focusing on character performance and camera movement. Traditional VFX...
“The biggest challenge was controlling the performance of character and camera – students couldn't even get to those cornerstones of filmmaking because they were so busy wrestling with the technology. Technical barriers, quality issues, render times, costs – all of these were keeping students from focusing on the creative work they really wanted to be doing.”
USC School of Cinematic Arts's Video production is part of this use case:
Private film school for cinema, media arts, and television production.
Generative AI platform for professional video creation and world simulation.
Related implementations across industries and use cases
Theory couldn't teach modern video skills. Now, business students use Runway to master cinematography and artistic direction.
Filming 60-hour courses took three months. By driving digital twins with scripts, the founder now generates them in two weeks.
Manual VFX for urban decay paused production. Artists used video AI to flood cities and crumble roofs, bypassing weeks of modeling.

Staff waited 24 hours for answers scattered across wikis. An AI agent now resolves queries in under 30 seconds.
New competency reviews tripled evaluation questions. Now, employees use AI to synthesize past 1:1 notes and draft high-quality feedback.
Repetitive coding slowed R&D. Now 80% of engineers use agentic tools to automate work, saving up to 2 hours weekly per person.
Manual testing consumed 20% of developer time. Now, 1,500 engineers use AI agents to auto-generate tests and prototype solutions.
