Prepare a Runway cover image

A finished file. A reviewed copy.

Prepare the exact asset you intend to use.

1. Choose the Runway file

   Save the final cover or frame image after choosing the edit you want to present.

2. Review what changes

   Read the supported findings before cleaning. A full clean removes supported camera, location, editing and provenance records. Use GPS-only cleaning when you need to retain other camera settings.

3. Inspect the downloaded copy

   Check aspect ratio, crop and lettering on the still; a video container needs its own processing flow.

Know the output before you start.

This workspace accepts JPG, PNG, and WebP still images. Up to 30 files, 15 MB each, and no more than 50 megapixels. Animated PNG and WebP are rejected.

JPG, PNG, and WebP stay in the same format. The copy is re-encoded, so compression and color can change. A HEIC still uses the separate HEIC cleaner. A video uses the video cleaner. This workspace does not extract frames from a video.
