Generating Video with Google Veo 3
To generate a video within Gemini: - Start a new chat (just like ChatGPT) - Describe your video in the prompt input box (just like ChatGPT) - Click “Video” in bottom bar, so that it appears blue - Wait 2 minutes for the video to render ———— Prompts ———— But, you still need strong prompts to get usable video. Below are 2 prompts that I showcased in the youtube tutorial. Copy/paste the prompt into ChatGPT (or Gemini), asking AI to update the prompt with your desired content: A close-up, cinematic selfie shot showing Peter Pan sitting on a mossy log deep in the forest, talking directly into the camera about the importance of learning how fair dust works. Peter Pan is animated and inspiring, gesturing as she speaks, with a friendly, approachable smile. In the background, a group of fluffy baby Samoyeds play together, tumbling over each other with their tails wagging. One puppy gently nudges another with its nose, while another pauses, tongue out, gazing curiously at a butterfly. Soft, dappled sunlight filters through tall pine trees, illuminating Sabrina and the playful puppies. The lens is a portrait lens with creamy bokeh, focusing attention on Sabrina’s expression while the joyful scene unfolds behind her. POV is a static tripod. Audio features Peter Pans clear, enthusiastic voice, joyful puppy barks, gentle rustling of leaves, and distant birdsong. The background includes lush green moss, scattered wildflowers, and towering tree trunks. To achieve the best results, I suggest including specific references in your prompts. The more specific the action, camera, and style cues, the better your results. Here are examples: - Scene pacing: rapid montage of city life at sunrise - Actor types: eccentric elderly inventor with a mischievous grin - Camera moves: overhead drone shot sweeping across coastline - Specific decade or genre: 1980s cyberpunk action sequence - Lighting details: golden hour sunlight streaming through blinds - Lens types & effects: shot on wide-angle lens with soft focus - Soundscape cues: subtle ambient rain with distant thunder - Color palette/style: muted pastel tones like Wes Anderson film - Editing techniques: jump cuts between characters’ reactions - Wardrobe or prop references: character in vintage NASA suit - Framing/composition: symmetrical center-framed close-up - Environmental specifics: fog rolling over neon-lit city - Mood/tone direction: whimsical and playful, similar to Pixar - Weather/atmosphere: snow falling under streetlights at night
