Veo 3.1 AI Video Generator
Create cinematic AI video with native dialogue, sound effects, first-and-last-frame control, and output up to 4K. Use the Veo 3.1 AI video generator directly below to create from a prompt, image, frame pair, or supported references.
Generate with Veo 3.1 online
The complete MuseGen video workspace is embedded here and starts with Veo 3.1 selected. You can still compare variants or switch models without losing the rest of the workflow.
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 aimed at directors, marketing teams and screen storytellers who want lifelike motion and usable sound. It pairs close prompt adherence with first-frame and last-frame guidance, so a shot opens and closes on compositions you chose instead of leaving the visual arc to luck.
For directors, ad agencies, product film crews, previs artists and social video 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 plus as many as 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 MuseGen's upload, progress, history, reuse, and download experience stays available.

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 sound in the same pass
Speech, ambience, score and effects arrive with the picture, so timing and action are planned as one audiovisual shot.
Control over the first and last frame
Pin the opening and the ending with images to build transitions, product reveals, morphs and precisely framed camera moves.
Output as high as 4K
Use 720p while iterating, 1080p for day-to-day delivery, or 4K when a big screen needs the extra detail.
Fast or Quality tier
Explore cheaply with Fast, then step up to Quality when accuracy, prompt adherence and final polish matter most.
Negative prompts and seeds
List what must stay out of frame, and lock a seed to keep a series of creative attempts more consistent.
Follows cinematic direction
Cover lens feel, framing, movement, light, acting and audio cues in a single production-style 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, steady 50mm dolly glides past a frosted glass candle jar on a dark walnut shelf. Soft morning light warms the glass as the camera curves toward a centred hero framing. Gentle room tone, a faint crackle of the wick and a low, warm synth pad; no voice-over.”
Describe the shot, not just the subject
Include framing, lens feel, camera motion, what the subject does, the setting, the light and the final look.
Direct the audio too
Write dialogue word for word, then layer in ambience, foley, a music cue and any beats that should be silent.
Treat frames as fixed anchors
Upload clean first and last images of the same subject whenever composition and continuity have to stay tight.
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 aimed at directors, marketing teams and screen storytellers who want lifelike motion and usable sound. It pairs close prompt adherence with first-frame and last-frame guidance, so a shot opens and closes on compositions you chose instead of leaving the visual arc to luck. MuseGen 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 or 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 speech, background sound, score and 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 plus as many as two frame images. Its reference workflow supports A first frame, with an 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, ad agencies, product film crews, previs artists and social video 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.
