Enhanced prompt adherence for image animation

Veo 3.1 follows your motion descriptions more accurately than earlier versions. The model interprets instructions better and generates videos that match your creative intent, reducing iteration cycles. Describe product rotations, portrait expressions, or environmental changes. Veo 3.1 applies those instructions while preserving your photo's original style and composition.

Improved character consistency for portraits

When animating portraits, Veo 3.1 maintains facial features and character details more reliably. The model preserves eye color, facial structure, and overall appearance throughout sequences. Complex elements, such as hand positioning, may show variation, but core character traits remain stable. Transform product photos into engaging demos with matching sound effects. Animate portraits with natural movement and contextual audio.

Native audio generation with realistic physics

Veo 3.1 recognizes objects in your photo and generates motion that respects real-world physics. Products move naturally, portraits breathe believably, and landscapes come alive with subtle motion. The model also generates synchronized audio—ambient sounds matching your photo's context, sound effects aligned with motion, or dialogue you specify. Turn static brand assets into video content with lifelike physics.
