Runway App Studio adds Character Swap for video
By Steven Van ·
Swap the person or the place in a clip and keep the motion, and optionally move or replace the audio.
On October 29, Runway posted Character Swap inside App Studio. You can replace the person or the location in a video and keep the original motion, and you can transfer or swap the audio so it fits the new scene.
App Studio is the no-code host Runway already offers on paid plans. This post does not list a separate price for Character Swap, and it does not say whether the replacement comes from a still, a prompt, or both. Runway's earlier App Studio notes describe building an app from a description. This demo is the public look at character swaps, location swaps, and audio.
The same day, Runway also posted that App Studio can turn a short film into a video game, with no coding. That is a demonstration of App Studio, which already has its own article, not a separate product.
