💥 Step-by-Step Guide to Using Veo. Text to Video
When using the Text to Video feature, the first step is to configure the model settings correctly.
Model Settings
Model
We offer three advanced video generation models: Veo 3.1, Veo 3.1 Fast, and Veo 3.1 Fast (relax). These models combine powerful generative AI, realistic visuals, and intelligent audio generation in a single system.
Veo 3.1 - is designed for users who want the highest possible quality and cinematic results. It delivers exceptional detail, smooth motion, and realistic audio synchronization, making it ideal for creating professional-quality videos.
Veo 3.1 Fast - is a faster, more lightweight version of the model, optimized for speed and efficiency. It is ideal for quickly testing ideas and creating dynamic videos while reducing generation time and resource usage.
Veo 3.1 Fast (relax) - is a more cost-effective version of Veo 3.1 Fast. It delivers the same output quality while processing generations in the background. This model is ideal when speed is not a priority, allowing you to use resources more efficiently while still achieving high-quality results.
Duration
Currently, all Veo models support a fixed video length. Each generated video is 8 seconds long.
Quality
When generating a video from a text prompt, you can choose from three quality options:
720p A medium-resolution option that offers a good balance between video quality and file size. It delivers clear visuals and is well suited for online content and playback on most modern devices.
1080p A high-resolution option that provides excellent sharpness and detail. It is ideal for larger screens and professional-looking content, though it requires more storage space and may take longer to generate.
4K The highest available quality, offering maximum visual detail and realism. It is ideal for professional projects where every element, from textures and lighting to scene depth, matters.
Aspect Ratio
Two aspect ratios are available:
- 9:16 - Vertical video
- 16:9 - Horizontal video
Image Type
When generating a video from a text prompt, you can ignore the Image Type setting, as it does not affect the result in this mode.
Structuring a Text Prompt
Once you have configured the model settings, the next step is to write a clear, well-structured prompt to achieve the best possible results.
- Main Subject and Action
This is the foundation of every prompt. Clearly describe who or what appears in the scene and what they are doing. Keep the description concise and avoid unnecessary details or pronouns, as they may confuse the model.
- Environment and Time of Day
Specify where the scene takes place and the time of day. This helps define the atmosphere, lighting, and overall color palette of the video.
- Camera Movement
In Veo, camera movement is an important storytelling tool. The camera can behave like a real film camera by moving closer to the subject, following a character, orbiting around an object, and more.
Example:
A giant elephant drinks water from a river in the savanna at sunset. Golden sunlight reflects on the water while a light cloud of dust rises around the elephant. The camera slowly circles around the elephant.

Structuring a Text Prompt with Speech
Once you have configured the model settings, the next step is to write a well-structured prompt to generate a high-quality video with synchronized speech.
- Main Subject and Action
This is the foundation of every prompt. Clearly describe who or what appears in the scene and what they are doing. Keep the description concise and avoid unnecessary details or pronouns that may confuse the model.
- Environment and Time of Day
Specify where the scene takes place and the time of day. This helps establish the atmosphere, lighting, and overall visual style of the video.
- Specify That the Character Speaks
To ensure the model generates dialogue, explicitly state that the character is speaking. Include this naturally in your prompt.
- Add the Exact Line of Dialogue
If you want the character to say something specific, include a short quoted line in the prompt.
Veo will generate synchronized speech and realistic lip movements based on the provided dialogue. Write spoken lines in a script-style format, for example:
The cat blinks and says, “No dinner again? Typical human…”
- Specify the Spoken Language
To make the character speak in the desired language, clearly specify the language in your prompt.
Example:
A teacher stands in front of a classroom whiteboard, with a student holding a notebook nearby. The camera slowly moves closer. The teacher says: “Not bad, but I expected more from you. Try one more time, you can do it!” Realistic style, dialogue spoken in English.

💥 Step-by-Step Guide to Using Veo: Extend Video
With Veo, you can extend an existing generated video by an additional 8 seconds.
Create the Initial Video
First, generate the opening part of your video. This will serve as the starting point for the extended version.
Detailed instructions for each video generation mode are provided in the sections above.
Once you are satisfied with the initial result and want to continue the scene, select the “Extend” button.
Writing a Prompt for Video Extension
When extending a video, your new prompt should continue the existing scene naturally while preserving the same subjects, atmosphere, and visual style. The model uses the original video as the starting point, while your prompt describes what should happen next.
- New Action or Scene Progression
Describe what should happen next in the scene, such as a subtle action, movement, reaction, or camera adjustment.
Avoid abrupt transitions or introducing new characters, as the extension should feel like a seamless continuation.
- Movement Style: Pace and Smoothness
Specify how the movement should unfold, whether it should be slow, gentle, fast, or dynamic.
Video extensions generally work best with smooth, natural motion, helping the transition feel continuous rather than abrupt.
Example
The office worker throws his laptop aside and bursts into tears. He covers his face with his hands, breathing heavily in frustration. His coworkers glance at him in surprise but continue walking past. Realistic atmosphere, bustling office environment, cinematic lighting, handheld camera, emotional scene.
