Generation requires an account and uses credits based on the selected model, variant, duration, resolution, and other settings. Failed tasks are refunded automatically.

What is Veo 3.1 and when should you use it?

Understand where Veo 3.1 fits before spending time on references, prompts, and final-resolution generations.

Veo 3.1 is designed for filmmakers, brand teams, and storytellers who need realistic motion together with usable sound. It combines strong prompt following with first-frame and last-frame guidance, so a shot can begin and finish on deliberate compositions instead of leaving the full visual arc to chance.

For directors, advertising teams, product filmmakers, previsualization artists, and social creators, the practical advantage is not a single headline benchmark. It is the way Veo 3.1 combines Text to video, image to video, first and last frame with Text prompts and up to two frame images. That combination determines whether the model can preserve a prepared visual direction or needs to invent most of the scene from language alone.

On this page, research and production live in one flow. Read the official specifications, study the source material, use the prompt framework, and then work in the embedded generator. The selected model defaults to Veo 3.1, while the rest of Open Sora's upload, progress, history, reuse, and download experience stays available.

Product launch films

Create controlled reveals and transitions by anchoring the opening and closing compositions with product frames.

Vertical social campaigns

Generate native 9:16 shots with dialogue and effects for Shorts, Reels, TikTok, and mobile-first advertisements.

World-building concepts

Explore locations, creatures, physical action, and environmental sound before committing to a larger production.

How to create video with Veo 3.1

Move from a creative idea to a configured Veo 3.1 generation without leaving this model page.

1

Describe the shot

Write the subject, action, environment, camera, style, timing, and sound. If you have reference media, upload it and explain the role of each asset.

2

Configure Veo 3.1

Keep Veo 3.1 selected, choose the appropriate variant, mode, duration, aspect ratio, resolution, and audio settings, then check the displayed credit cost.

3

Generate, review, and reuse

Start the task, follow progress in the result panel, review the completed video, reuse its settings for another take, or download the finished file.

Why creators choose the Veo 3.1 AI video generator

The defining capabilities that shape how Veo 3.1 handles direction, references, motion, sound, and delivery.

Native audio generation

Generate dialogue, ambience, music, and effects together with the picture so timing and action can be planned as one audiovisual shot.

First and last frame control

Guide both ends of a clip with images to shape transitions, product reveals, transformations, and carefully composed camera moves.

Up to 4K output

Choose 720p for iteration, 1080p for everyday delivery, or 4K when the shot needs additional detail for a larger screen.

Fast and Quality variants

Use Fast for lower-cost exploration and move to Quality when fidelity, prompt adherence, and final-shot polish matter most.

Negative prompt and seed

Refine what should stay out of the frame and reuse a seed when you want a more controlled series of creative attempts.

Cinematic prompt following

Describe lens choice, framing, movement, lighting, performance, and sound cues in one production-oriented prompt.

How to prompt Veo 3.1 for more controllable video

A strong Veo 3.1 prompt behaves like a compact production brief: it gives the model a subject, an ordered action, a camera plan, an art direction, and a soundtrack.

Reusable prompt structure

Subject + ordered action + environment + camera + lighting + visual style + timing + dialogue and sound + consistency constraints

Example Veo 3.1 prompt

A slow 50mm tracking shot follows a ceramic perfume bottle across a rain-dark stone table. Warm window light catches the glass while the camera arcs toward a final centered hero composition. Quiet room tone, delicate glass taps, and a low cinematic pulse; no narration.

Write the shot, not only the subject

Name the framing, lens feeling, camera movement, subject action, environment, lighting, and visual finish.

Direct the soundtrack

Describe dialogue exactly, then add ambience, foley, music, and any moments that should be silent.

Use frames as hard anchors

Upload clean first and last images with matching subjects when composition and continuity must stay controlled.

Veo 3.1 modes, references, and output options

Choose a tier and format based on where you are in the creative process. Draft settings are for finding the shot; premium settings are for finishing a direction that already works.

Plan around the limits of generative video

AI video is most reliable when the prompt gives each shot one readable visual idea. Review important details before publishing and treat the first generation as a directed take that can be refined.

Complex multi-character interaction, fast occlusion, readable text, logos, hands, and exact object counts can still vary between takes. Use clear references, simplify crowded action, and inspect continuity frame by frame.

Higher resolution does not replace art direction. Lock the story beat, composition, movement, and sound at an economical setting first; then move the strongest direction to the premium variant or resolution.

Veo 3.1 AI video generator FAQ

What is Veo 3.1?

Veo 3.1 is a Google DeepMind AI video generation model. Veo 3.1 is designed for filmmakers, brand teams, and storytellers who need realistic motion together with usable sound. It combines strong prompt following with first-frame and last-frame guidance, so a shot can begin and finish on deliberate compositions instead of leaving the full visual arc to chance. Open Sora places the complete generator on this page so you can move from research to creation without opening a separate workspace.

Which generation modes does Veo 3.1 support?

Veo 3.1 supports Text to video, image to video, first and last frame. That range lets you start with a written idea, guide the opening with an image, or use additional references when the composition, identity, or motion must be more controlled.

How long and what resolution can Veo 3.1 generate?

You can create 4, 6, or 8 seconds video with output at 720p, 1080p, and 4K. Pick a lower resolution for quick creative exploration, then use the highest appropriate setting when you are ready to evaluate detail or deliver the shot.

Can Veo 3.1 generate audio?

Veo 3.1 supports Native dialogue, ambience, music, and sound effects. Write dialogue, ambience, music, and effects as deliberate parts of the prompt so the soundtrack supports the visible action and emotional rhythm of the scene.

What can I upload to the Veo 3.1 AI video generator?

The model accepts Text prompts and up to two frame images. Its reference workflow supports First frame and optional last frame. Give every uploaded asset a clear role in the prompt instead of expecting the model to infer which image controls identity, style, composition, or movement.

Who should use Veo 3.1?

Veo 3.1 is a strong fit for directors, advertising teams, product filmmakers, previsualization artists, and social creators. The best choice still depends on the shot: use this page's facts, features, examples, and prompt guide to decide whether its particular balance of control, speed, resolution, sound, and references matches the job.

How do I write a better Veo 3.1 prompt?

A reliable prompt names the subject, action, location, camera, lighting, visual style, timing, and sound. Put events in chronological order, quote exact dialogue, and state what must remain consistent. When you upload references, identify each one explicitly.

Can I use Veo 3.1 directly on this page?

Yes. The full Veo 3.1 generator is embedded directly below the hero on this page. Choose text, image, frames, or references as appropriate, configure the available controls, review the visible credit cost, and start the generation without leaving the model guide.
