December 12, 2024 - In an exciting development for students poised to enter the professional world, Runway has announced the launch of its Student Ambassador Program. This initiative is designed to equip students with the tools and connections they need to seamlessly transition into their careers, particularly within the fields that blend technology and creativity.
The new program is inclusive of students from a diverse array of disciplines, including art, film, architecture, computer science, and design. Runway aims to foster a community of learners who are inspired by the intersection of art and technology, offering them the ability to integrate Runway's state-of-the-art tools into their academic pursuits.
Participants in the Student Ambassador Program will benefit from a range of resources to support their educational and professional journeys. Each student will receive 100,000 complimentary credits alongside a Pro plan, which grants extensive access to Runway’s sophisticated AI video tools. Additionally, they will have the opportunity to network with both peers and industry experts, thus broadening their potential career pathways.
“It’s a program that strives to not only reduce the friction involved in accessing AI video tools for students, but to help connect students to both their peers and to industry professionals.”
Runway is collaborating with universities worldwide to reach a broad student base. Notable institutions involved include New York University, Rhode Island School of Design, University of the Arts London, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, University of Southern California, Loyola Marymount University, University of California, Los Angeles, School of Visual Arts, and many others.
