How it works
Describe what is said and what is heard; Veo 3.1 Lite generates the sound together with the video.
2 credits per second at 720p and at 1080p, so the sharper output costs nothing extra.
Start the clip from your own image, and optionally set the frame it should end on. The image is cropped to the 16:9 or 9:16 shape you pick.
Prompt example
A golden retriever in a tiny chef's hat stands at a kitchen counter, looks at the camera and says in a proud deep voice: "Dinner is served." Bright morning kitchen, static medium shot. Sound: a pan sizzling, a happy bark, his voice.
