Introducing Solaris our first Interface World Model | Runway
Runway · Aug 2026 · 1:22 · AI-annotated
The video is built as a white-void card system: centered product shots and generated footage panels framed by a thin HUD, cut at a steady 19 cuts per minute over a 103 bpm pulse. Its signature moves are the shrink-to-thumbnail transition, the glowing circular cursor dragging objects inside each preview, and the repeated Generated with Solaris caption that stamps every demo.
