I'm about to show you how to  create insanely realistic AI videos that look completely real using just simple text  prompts inside Google's brand new VO3. And yes,  

00:20

even if you've never made AI videos before. Hi,  I'm Simon and I'm having way too much fun making   this tutorial.

So, in the next 12 minutes, I'm  going to walk you through everything you need to   know to get started with VO3. From how to get free  access to how to write those killer prompts that  

00:36

going to get you the best and most consistent  results every time. And then we're going to   go through together and create three completely  different types of videos from cinematic scenes   with people talking, an eye-catching sales  generating product promo, and a consistent   character video, all with just a few lines of  text.

Trust me, by the end of this tutorial,  

00:55

you're not just going to know how to use V3, but  you're going to know exactly why, in my humble   opinion at least, V3 is one of the best AI video  generators out there right now. And first things   first, let me show you how to access V3 for free.  Well, kind of free.

You'll need Google AI Pro,  

01:13

which is around $20 a month. But here's the  good news.

Google offers a free onemon trial,   so you can test it out and you can cancel anytime.  that unlocks full access to all of Google's most   powerful AI tools, including V3. And once you  have that, there are two main ways to access V3.  

01:30

And honestly, Google just made these way more  confusing and complex than it has to be. So,   let me break it down.

First up, Gemini. Head to  gemini.google.com and sign in.

This is probably   the fastest and the easiest way to use V3.  And yes, I'll drop all the links in the video  

01:47

description below so you can access them easily.  The other option is Google Flow via Google Labs.   So if you just go to labs.google.com and flow  is basically Google's prolevel film making tool   with full scene control, shot planning,  all the bells and whistles. But honestly,  

02:05

it's probably overkill unless you're planning,  you know, like a big project, uh, you know,   with lots of multiple scenes and lots of moving  parts. So if you would like me to do a tutorial   on Google Flow in the future, let me know down  in the comments.

But for now, let's stick with   Gemini since you get the same stunning results  without all the unnecessary complexity. All right,  

02:24

so here's the quick tour. So Gemini's layout is  super simple, and if you've ever used Chat GPT   before, then you'll really feel right at home.  So first, look for the video icon at the bottom   of the prompt box, and let's select that.

That's  what switches it over to V3 mode. On the left,  

02:43

there's a sidebar. You can open and close it to  check your previous charts or if you want to start   a new chat.

And here's the prompt box. So this is  where all the magic happens.

So you just type in   what you want, hit enter, and Gemini will take it  from there. And that's really all there is to it.  

02:58

So right now, V3 gives you three 8second videos  per day. So let's make each of those count.

So   let's jump right in then and create our first  video together. And we're going to kick things   off with a full-on action scene that looked like  it came right out of a Hollywood blockbuster,  

03:15

complete with characters and speech, so  that we can see what V3 can really do. Now,   when it comes to entering your prompt, you can go  as simple or as detailed as you like.

But here's   the five-part prompt formula that I use to get the  best and most consistent results. So, you've got  

03:32

subject, so who or what is in the video. Action,  what's actually happening in the scene.

Setting,   so where the action is taking place. Style, so  this is how it should look and feel visually.   And then audio, so any sound effects, music or  dialogue that you want included.

So using this  

03:50

simple prompt formula, let's build this scene  out step by step. So the subject for my video   is going to be a military helicopter with two  soldiers visible inside the cockpit.

For action,   we're going to be weaving at high speed through  a twisting canyon at sunset, dodging debris  

04:05

and hugging the terrain. The setting, well, it's  going to be a wide cinematic view showing the full   helicopter in flight with dramatic canyon scenery.  Style.

We want this to be tense, highstakes action   thriller with cinematic lighting, intense camera  shake from the turbulence. And then finally,  

04:22

audio. Want co-pilot one yelling, "We're not going  to survive this." And co-pilot 2 shouting back,   "We'll see about that." with pounding  orchestral score and deafening rotor blades.

So,   here's my full prompt exactly as I'd type it  into Gemini. So, this follows uh all of the  

04:40

five-part formula. So, V3 has everything it needs  to create a cohesive cinematic scene for us.

So,   now let's hit submit and give V3 a couple of  seconds to do its thing. All right.

And now,   let's take a look. We're not going to  survive this.

We'll see about that.

05:00

Okay. And honestly, you know what?

That's  not bad for a single prompt. I think the   helicopter looks fantastic.

The scenery  is beautiful. It looks really realistic.   The people could be improved.

The dialogue's a  little bit off, but you can obviously, you know,   regenerate this as many times as you like, but  as I say, I'm pretty happy with that. All right,  

05:19

now let's switch gears a little bit and create an  ad that you can use to promote a real product. So,   the kind of ad I'm looking to create here is  something that looks professional, like studio   quality, something that looks like it came out  of a, you know, an expensive brand campaign.

So,   using the same five-step prompt formula we used  earlier. Here's our ad step by step.

For subject,  

05:41

we've got a premium pair of wireless headphones  on a sleek rotating stand. The action,   I want a slow reveal from shadow into light as  the stand turns, highlighting every contour.   The setting is going to be a dark, moody studio  with water rim lights and a light haze in the air.  

05:59

And for style, I want ultra realistic materials.  I want cinematic lighting, subtle lens flares, and   kind of that luxurious luxury vibe. For audio, I'm  going to go with deep bass heavy music track with   a confident voice saying, "Hear every detail."  So, pulling all of that together, then here's  

06:17

our full prompt. Now, let's go ahead and hit  submit.

And now let's see what V3 comes up with.

06:32

Okay. Well, it gave us exactly what we asked for.  It's pretty simple.

Uh I do like the music. The   earphones look fantastic.

The headphones, sorry.  Um yeah, very very happy with that. Not bad for   the first try.

Now again, what you can do if you  like is go through and, you know, add more prompts  

06:48

and edit it and change it, you know, depending  on what kind of style you like, but for a product   promo, you know, made in a couple of seconds  with AI, really impressed. So, we've seen it   nail cinematic action.

We've seen it create high  quality product ads. Another thing that V3 does  

07:05

really brilliantly at is creating consistent  characters from one scene to the next. So,   in completely different clips, even in completely  different scenes and settings.

And this character   could be could be yourself, it could be somebody  else, or it could even be a character that you  

07:20

yourself have created from scratch using AI. So,  you remember in the intro when you saw me walking   on Mars, riding through the Wild West, ironing on  the streets of Bangkok, and enjoying a cup of tea,   even in the middle of a zombie apocalypse.

So, let  me show you how to do it. And it's easier than you  

07:37

might think. And it all starts with a photo.

If  you already have a photo that you want to use,   you can just go ahead and click add photo, upload  it there, and you're good to go. I'm going to do   things a little bit differently, though.

I'm going  to create a brand new character image right here  

07:53

inside Gemini. And then we're going to use that to  create multiple consistent character videos in V3.   We're in V3 video mode right now.

But instead  of just typing our video prompt straight away,   we're going to create a still image first because  this is the photo that we're going to use to keep  

08:09

our characters consistent across different scenes.  So to do that, I'm just going to click the image   option here under the prompt box. And that  switches us over to Gemini's image generator,   which is actually powered by Imagen.

And now we  just go ahead and describe the type of character  

08:25

that we want. Um, you know, you can be as specific  as you like.

You can, you know, whether you want   to add details about the clothing, expression,  and style. That will all help V3 kind of keep that   character locked in later.

So, for this demo,  I'm going to make three completely different  

08:41

Pixar style characters, just so you can see  how versatile this really is. So, first up,   here's my prompt.

a full body Pixar style 3D  character of a curious young adventurer wearing   a tan explorer's jacket, satchel, and cargo  pants with messy hair and a big friendly smile,  

08:59

bright colorful shading, large expressive eyes,  cinematic rim lighting, and a white background.   Next, we've got Pixar style 3D character of a  quirky inventor. Mid30s, wearing round glasses,   rolled up sleeves, and a tool belt with gadgets.  Warm colorful lighting, exaggerated facial  

09:19

features, large eyes, and a soft focus background.  So, I used Chat GBT to help me come up with these.   And finally, Pixar style 3D fox wearing a casual  hoodie holding a coffee cup, cheerful expression,   soft shading, bright colors, studio background  with subtle gradient. And honestly, I like all  

09:40

of these. I think they all look amazing.

And  you can swap in any style or character you want.   I've gone with Pixar style, but you know, if you  want to go with ultra realistic or Lego, anime,   fantasy, futuristic, cartoon characters, sci-fi,  aliens, like whatever fits your videos. So,  

09:58

I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to create  a consistent character video with our young   adventurous explorer here. I'll hover over it.  I'm going to click the download icon to grab   it in full size.

And now, let's switch back to  video again from the prompt box. And that'll open  

10:14

up a new chat, which is totally fine. And this is  where we now add our photo.

And then we write our   video prompt. So here's mine.

Adventurous explorer  pushing through dense jungle foliage at sunrise.   Golden light streaming through mist. Lens flares.  Cinematic tracking shot from behind, then panning  

10:32

to the side. Vibrant green tones.

Explorer says,  "Wow, this place is amazing. Soft ambient jungle   sounds with distant exotic bird calls.

Let's  go ahead and hit submit. Let's take a look.

10:50

Wow, this place is amazing. And this is just  absolutely perfect.

As you can see, it's the same   face, the same outfit, and it's in the same style.  And now, using this same image, I can go ahead and   create as many consistent character videos as  I like. So, I've gone ahead and made a few more  

11:09

scenes with our little explorer here, just to  show you how far you can push this. So, here's   our little explorer in an alien desert.

Here he  is crossing a snowy Arctic landscape. And here he   is inside ancient temple ruins.

Same character,  four completely different worlds. And V3 nails  

11:30

the consistency every single time. And that is  Google's V3 in action.

So now you know exactly   how to create these cinematic scenes, these  high-quality product promos, and these perfectly   consistent character videos every single time  from a single text prompt. But Google's next AI,  

11:48

Genie 3, just takes things to a whole new level.  Rather than just creating static images or videos,   you can create interactive worlds you can change  in real time. I mean, it just completely blew   my mind.

So, watch this video to find out more  about Genie3, and I'll see you in the next one.
