Why Veo 3 Is a Revolution in Video Generation
Veo 3 from Google DeepMind completely transforms the approach to video generation, offering a tool that creates not just visuals, but full-fledged videos with audio, dialogue, and sound effects. Announced in May 2025 at Google I/O, this neural network has become the most advanced model in text-to-video and image-to-video formats, where users can transform scene descriptions into realistic, high-quality frames. The key revolution lies in the integration of video and audio. Veo 3 generates 8 seconds of content in 4K with lip-sync:
- characters speak precisely according to the text description
- they gesture naturally
- object physics work perfectly — from water droplets falling to camera movements
Sound effects, music, and nature sounds are added automatically, creating a complete soundtrack without additional processing. Google offers this in Gemini Pro and Ultra, where new users receive free credits for their first tests.
In 2025, Veo 3.1 amplified the revolution: vertical video 9:16 for TikTok and YouTube Shorts in 1080p, improved lighting, scene mood, and character context. Camera movements — close-ups, zoom, pan — work exactly like professional cinematography. Face and object consistency is achieved through a seed parameter, allowing you to create video series with the same characters. This makes Veo 3 ideal for advertising, social media marketing, and content where each description becomes a finished video.
Why Is This a Revolution for Users?
Traditional filming requires teams, equipment, and weeks of shooting, while Veo 3 generates a video in minutes. Services like IMI AI provide the opportunity to use the model without limitations.
What Is Veo 3: Capabilities, Differences from Veo 2 and Sora
The neural network operates on the basis of Video Diffusion Transformer (VDT), trained on billions of video clips, and generates videos up to 60 seconds in 4K or 1080p with native audio. Google offers a tool where simple scene descriptions are transformed into professional-quality video — with realistic characters, movement, and sound. The model understands context, mood, and physics, creating scenes that look like actual filmed footage.
The main capabilities of Veo 3 make it a leader among AI tools for video creation. Video generation happens quickly: from 30 seconds per video in Fast mode. Lip-sync synchronizes speech with lip movement, dialogues in Russian sound natural, and sound effects — from wind noise to music — are generated automatically. Camera movement is controlled by commands: "close-up," "zoom in," "pan left," or "dolly out," imitating cinematic techniques. Character consistency is maintained thanks to the seed parameter and reference images, allowing you to build video series with the same characters. Styles vary from realistic films to animation (Pixar, LEGO), neon, or vintage. Additionally: image-to-video for animating static photos, ingredients-to-video for combining elements, and improved physics — objects fall, reflect, and interact precisely.
Differences from Veo 2
Veo 3 differs significantly from Veo 2. The previous version generated short clips (5–12 seconds) without full audio, with weak lip-sync and limited camera control. Veo 3 increased length to 60 seconds, added native sound (dialogue, SFX, music), improved resolution (4K+) and physics. Camera control became professional, and prompt adherence became precise (90%+ compliance with description). Veo 3.1 (October 2025 update) added vertical video (9:16 for TikTok), better lighting, and multi-prompt for complex scenes.
Comparison with Sora 2 (OpenAI)
Veo 3 shows advantages in longer videos and audio. Sora 2 excels at creative, polished short clips (20–60 seconds), but Veo wins in physics realism, sound quality, and control (camera, style).
| Parameter | Veo 3 / 3.1 | Veo 2 | Sora 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Video Length | Up to 60 sec (3.1) | 5–12 sec | Up to 25 sec (Pro) |
| Resolution | 1080p | 1080p | 1080p |
| Audio | Native (lip-sync, SFX) | Absent | Partial |
| Physics / Camera | Ideal | Average | Good |
Veo 3 is available on IMI AI, Google Flow, Gemini (Pro/Ultra), and Vertex AI, with free credits for new users. Google subscriptions start from $20/month.
Veo 3 Interfaces: Where to Generate (Russian Services, Gemini, Canva)
IMI AI was among the first to implement the VEO 3 model in its interface in Russia. Users create viral Reels for TikTok and other social networks in minutes: you select the Veo 3 model, enter a scene description — and get a video with full sound effects and camera movement. The platform offers the ability to test the functionality for free.
Gemini App (Google AI Ultra) — official interface: prompt helper, Scene Builder in Flow. Subscriptions (Pro/Ultra) provide free credits, generation via app or web. Ideal for professional quality, but geo-blocking bypasses services.
Canva/VideoFX — for SMM: Veo 3 integration into templates, editing, export to social networks. Free tier is limited, Pro — $15/month. Simple drag-and-drop, combo with Midjourney.
Step-by-Step Guide: How to Generate Your First Video in Veo 3
Generating video in Veo 3 is simple and fast — from prompt input to finished video in 2–5 minutes. The instructions are adapted for IMI. The platform integrates Veo 3 directly, supporting text-to-video and image-to-video.
Structure of the perfect prompt:
[Camera Movement] + [Subject] + [Action] + [Context/Style] + [Sound] + [Parameters].
Example: "Close-up: cute cat jumps on kitchen table, realistic style, sound effects of jump and meowing, seed 12345, no subtitles".
Google understands cinematic terms: zoom, pan, dolly, lighting.
Steps: Generating your first video on IMI.ai (2 minutes)
Step 1: Login and select tool.
Go to app.imigo.ai → Sign up for free (email or Telegram). Select AI-tool "Video" → choose Veo 3 model.
