Veo 3.1 AI Video Generator (No Longer Available)
Veo 3.1 by Google has been removed from NeonLights AI. Try Seedance 2.0 instead — ByteDance's multimodal video model with native audio, up to 9 reference images, and cinematic output.
Veo 3.1 is no longer available on NeonLights AI. The model has been replaced by Seedance 2.0 — ByteDance's multimodal video generation model with native audio, up to 9 reference images, start/end frame control, and output at 480p or 720p up to 15 seconds.
Veo 3.1 was Google's flagship video generation model known for its prompt comprehension, synchronized native audio, reference image support, and 1080p output. While it produced high-quality results, its restrictive content policies and high cost (450–900 credits) made it impractical for many users. Seedance 2.0 offers broader creative freedom starting at just 120 credits.
Key Features
Synchronized Native Audio
Generates rich audio automatically — natural conversations, sound effects, ambient soundscapes — perfectly synchronized with the video content. No separate audio step needed.
Superior Prompt Understanding
Remarkable comprehension of complex, nuanced prompts including intricate scenes, specific camera movements, and detailed artistic styles that previous models often missed.
Up to 3 Reference Images
Upload 1–3 reference images to guide appearance, style, and character consistency across the generated video, ensuring visual continuity throughout.
Start & End Frame Transitions
Provide a starting and ending frame, and Veo 3.1 generates smooth, seamless transitions between them — perfect for artful scene transitions and controlled animations.
Realistic Physics & Motion
True‑to‑life textures, coherent motion across frames, and natural movement with improved realism capturing physical interactions and environmental dynamics.
1080p at 24 FPS
All output renders at 1080p resolution with 24fps playback. Choose from 16:9 (landscape) or 9:16 (portrait) and 4 or 8‑second durations.
About Veo 3.1
Veo 3.1 builds on Google's Veo 3 foundation with significant improvements in prompt adherence and audiovisual quality, particularly for image‑to‑video generation. The model was designed with creative professionals in mind, offering granular control over generated content while maintaining ease of use.
All videos generated with Veo 3.1 are marked with SynthID, Google's watermarking technology for identifying AI‑generated content. The model has been extensively tested for safety and content policy compliance.
Text‑to‑Video
Describe your vision in natural language and watch it come to life with synchronized audio. From realistic scenes to fantastical concepts, Veo 3.1 translates your words into stunning visuals.
The model's superior prompt understanding means you can be specific about camera angles, lighting, mood, character actions, and even audio elements — and it will faithfully execute your creative intent.
Image‑to‑Video
Animate your static images with lifelike motion and accompanying audio. Perfect for bringing concept art, photographs, and illustrations to life.
Veo 3.1 excels at maintaining character consistency and understanding your creative vision when working from a source image. Your prompt should describe the motion and action you want to see, not just describe what's already in the image.
Character Consistency With Reference Images
Maintain the same character appearance across multiple video generations using up to 3 reference images. This is ideal for storytelling, creating cohesive content series, and building narratives where visual continuity matters.
Choose clear, well‑lit reference images that show the subject from the desired angle. The model uses these to guide the appearance, style, and identity of characters in the generated video.
Cinematic Transitions
Create smooth scene transitions by providing start and end frames. Veo 3.1 generates the motion in between with natural camera movement, making it perfect for artful transitions, morphing effects, and controlled animation sequences.
For best results, ensure start and end frames are visually compatible and the transition you're requesting is physically plausible. The model works best with natural motion sequences.
Tips for Best Results
Be specific and descriptive in your text prompts. Include details about camera angles, lighting, mood, and audio elements. For example: *"A medium shot of a wise owl circling above a moonlit forest clearing, with wings flapping sounds and a gentle orchestral score."*
For image‑to‑video, use high‑quality input images with clear subjects. Your prompt should focus on the motion and action, not describe what's already visible.
Guide audio by describing desired sounds: *"with bird songs and wind rustling"* or *"accompanied by upbeat music."*
Build longer narratives by chaining multiple generations together, with each new clip continuing from where the last one ended using the start frame feature.
