Runway Launches Global Talent Network

Today, we are announcing the launch of the Runway Talent Network, a media platform for creatives to showcase and discover creative work. The Talent Network is a new kind of creative network where studios, production companies, and independent creatives can display their work and talent.

With tens of millions of users and many thousands of companies now using Runway, we consistently heard that one of the most recurrent needs was finding new talent and professionals to help integrate AI into diverse workflows—from concepting and pre-production to final frames. The Talent Network not only allows creatives to show their work, but also find jobs and new work opportunities from brands, agencies and studios looking for professional talent.

The Talent Network comprises independent artists and creatives, many of whom are members of Runway’s Creative Partner Program, as well as leading production companies that are early adopters of AI and are currently pioneering new workflows within their industries.

Among the inaugural roster of production companies is EDGLRD, founded by acclaimed director Harmony Korine. Korine is known for his distinctive, often experimental and provocative films such as Kids (1995), Gummo (1997), Spring Breakers (2012), and The Beach Bum (2019). EDGLRD is a digital IP-based studio that produces cutting-edge worlds in film, gaming, advertising and sensory experiences.

Our collaboration with Runway marks a turning point in how technology and creative production intersect. At EDGLRD, we’re always thinking about how to push boundaries, and Runway’s Talent Network is an essential step towards connecting innovative artists and brands with the tools they need to redefine what’s possible.”
- Jon Lutzky, COO of EDGLRD.

Other participating production companies include TOOL of North America, Silverside, Builders Club, [AI]magination, Obsidian, and Superside.
