General domain of usage  
Video content creation

Veo 3.1 is Google's AI video model — it turns a text description or a photo into a short video clip with sound built in. You already have access to it through tools you may recognize.

**Veo 3.1** — Google DeepMind's video and audio generation model. Given a text prompt or an image, it produces an 8-second video clip with matching sound built in, not added afterward.

Definition


- **Flow** (labs.google/flow) — Google's dedicated AI filmmaking studio. Best for multi-shot projects.
- **Gemini app** — generate a quick video straight from a chat, including on mobile.
- **Google Vids** (vids.new) — a simple editor with a free monthly quota of Veo clips. Best for a first try.
- **YouTube Shorts (Dream Screen)** — generate a clip directly while creating a Short.

Flow is desktop-first and works best on Chromium browsers (Chrome, Edge). A mobile app is planned but not yet available.

Note

AI video generation has moved from novelty to everyday creative tool — and Google Veo 3.1 is currently the most capable model you can access for free. This mini-course teaches you to go from a blank prompt box to a finished, publish-ready video clip. Across 10 short lessons, you'll learn to write prompts that actually work, generate built-in dialogue and sound effects, keep the same character consistent across multiple shots, and export the right format for YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram. No editing software or technical background required — just a browser and an idea.
