## Google's most capable video model

Google Veo 3.1, released October 2025, is the production flagship of the Veo 3.1 family — generating 4–8 seconds of content per generation. Combined with broadcast-quality audio at 48kHz stereo (including dialogue, voiceover, and sound effects) and 4K resolution, Veo 3.1 is positioned for broadcast, commercial, and high-end production.

Selectable frame rates (24 FPS for cinematic, 30 FPS for standard, 60 FPS for sports and fast motion) give the model flexibility across production contexts that no other model in the lineup matches.

## How to use

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the AI Video Generator">
    Log into ImagineArt and go to the **AI Video Generator**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select Google Veo 3.1">
    Choose **Google Veo 3.1** from the model dropdown.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Write a detailed prompt">
    For long-form content, structure your prompt as a scene description with clear narrative progression — describe the arc of what happens over the full duration.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set duration">
    Choose your desired length — 4, 6, or 8 seconds.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select frame rate">
    Choose 24 FPS for cinematic, 30 FPS for standard delivery, or 60 FPS for smooth high-speed action.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select resolution">
    Choose 720p, 1080p, or 4K based on delivery requirements.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate">
    Click **Generate**. 4K generations take longer than 720p or 1080p.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Prompting tips

* **Structure prompts as narratives** — "The scene opens on... then transitions to... building to a conclusion where..." — Veo 3.1 understands temporal narrative structure.
* **Specify audio timing** — "The music builds from quiet to full orchestral by the halfway point" — temporal audio cues are interpreted accurately.
* **Match FPS to content** — 24 FPS for drama and cinema; 30 FPS for documentary and commercial; 60 FPS for sports or fluid slow-motion effect.
* **Use 4K for large-format or print-quality moments** — Product launches, hero brand shots, and cinematic sequences benefit most from 4K.

### Example prompts

> A nature documentary segment: A wolf pack hunts across a frozen tundra at dusk. The alpha leads, the pack follows in formation. Wide shot establishing the landscape, intercutting with close-ups of paw prints, breath visible in the cold air. Narration: "In the far north, survival depends on the pack." Ambient wind and distant howling. 8 seconds, 4K.

> A coffee brand spot: Product sits on a warm kitchen table at sunrise. A pair of hands wrap around the mug. Steam rises in close-up. Brand voice: "Start every morning right." Warm, cinematic. 6 seconds.
