Veo 3.1

Veo 3.1 is now available on SeaArt AI! This powerful model is designed to transform your creative ideas into high-quality video clips. Whether you start with a text description or a still image, Veo 3.1 generates impressive videos complete with synchronized dialogue, sound effects, and ambient noise.

Key Features and Upgrades

Veo 3.1 builds on its predecessor with several key enhancements focused on realism, user control, and production efficiency.

Flexible Generation Modes: The model supports both text-to-video and image-to-video creation. You can generate content in either horizontal (16:9) or vertical (9:16) formats, making it perfect for everything from film to social media.

Integrated Audio: Veo 3.1 natively generates synchronized audio, including dialogue and sound effects. While lip-sync and natural speech have been improved, Google is still refining shorter segments to reduce incoherence.

Extended Narratives: The model generates initial 8-second clips that can be extended to over a minute. This allows you to create longer stories while maintaining visual and audio consistency across different shots.

High-Quality Output: Videos are generated in 720p or 1080p resolution at a smooth 24 frames per second (fps) for a cinematic feel. The model shows improved realism, better physics simulation, and follows prompts more closely.

Ingredients to Video: Blend multiple assets like characters, objects, and styles into a single, unified clip.

Frames to Video: Create smooth transitions by providing the start and end frames of a scene.

Object Motion Control: Animate objects or characters by defining specific movement paths.

Character Consistency: Use reference images to ensure a character's appearance remains consistent across multiple scenes.

These updates position Veo 3.1 as a strong tool for professional workflows like storyboarding and previsualization. It competes with models like OpenAI's Sora 2, though Veo 3.1 is noted for its polished, cinematic look compared to Sora 2's more "candid" style.

How It Works

1. Input: Start with a text prompt or upload an image to serve as a reference.

2. Generation: The model uses advanced diffusion techniques to create visuals with realistic motion and lighting, while audio is generated simultaneously to ensure perfect sync.

3. Refinement: Use the integrated Flow tools to edit elements, extend clips, or iterate on your prompts.

4. Output: Download or share your final video.
