AI Instructor – Runway

Teach live online classes on making and editing video with Runway, from storyboard frames to finished shots and prompt-based changes to real footage. You teach in English from a ready class kit, remotely, and you are paid for each class you teach.

What the work is for

YPAI Learn teaches people to create with AI tools in live classes. Your classes take learners from one generated shot in Runway to a short sequence with a consistent character, and on to edits of footage they filmed themselves, and teach them to check motion, continuity and consent for every person on screen.

The work

• Teach the live class “Turn a storyboard into a short video sequence with Runway”, 90 minutes, from the class kit.
• Teach the live class “Edit your own footage with text prompts in Runway”, 90 minutes, from the class kit.
• Show live how a reference image, a clear shot description and camera direction change a Runway generation, and how to keep a character the same from shot to shot.
• Walk learners through editing a clip they filmed: change the setting or light with a prompt, remove an object, and compare the result frame by frame with the original.
• Help learners whose shots warp, flicker or drift from the storyboard, and explain consent for real people on camera and labeling generated video when it is published.

What to expect

• Every class is live and online, in English, with learners joining from different countries. When you apply, you can also list other languages you teach in.
• A kit is ready for every class: a minute-by-minute plan, slides, speaker notes, a demo (for example a storyboard becoming shots) and a recorded backup of the demo.
• You work remotely on your own computer, with a camera, a microphone, a connection stable enough to upload and play video, and a Runway account to demo from.
• Before you teach a class for the first time, you take and pass its instructor test.
• Before a teaching assignment starts, you sign an instructor agreement. It covers pay, confidentiality and how class material may be used.
• Each invitation states the class times and the price learners pay, and you see both before you accept.
• Already have a course on Runway, or want to make one? You can sell your own recorded course on YPAI Learn too. Bring a course you've built, or build one with our kit. It's the same application.

What you bring

• An ad, music video, short film or social clip where you used Runway in real work, that you can show and talk through shot by shot.
• Experience teaching, running film or editing workshops, or guiding junior editors.
• Patience with learners from photography or social media who have never cut a sequence.

You need

• Hands-on use of Runway in your own video work, both generating shots from text and images and editing existing footage.
• Working knowledge of video editing: shots, cuts, frame rates, aspect ratios and exporting for different screens.
• Fluent spoken English, the language the classes are taught in.
• 18 years or older.

Good to know

• Some employment contracts require approval for outside work; if yours does, have it in place before you accept an assignment.
• Teaching volume depends on how many learners book classes, and each invitation tells you how much time it is expected to take.
• There is no fee to apply, and you are not asked to buy or complete a YPAI Learn course.
