Aspect Ratio:How to Write Effective Veo 3.1 Prompts?
Want to know how to write good prompts for Veo 3.1? A good prompt is key to "accurate results". Veo 3.1 requires "specific, structured" instructions. We've summarized a "5-element formula" and real-case examples for different scenarios—beginners can use them directly.
The 5-Element Prompt Formula
The 5-Element Prompt Formula
(Shot Type) + (Subject + Action) + (Scene + Environment) + (Style + Lighting) + (Audio Elements)
- Shot Type: Specify angle/technique (e.g., "close-up)", "drone shot", "slow motion")
- Subject + Action: Clarify "who is doing what" (avoid vagueness—e.g., instead of "a cat eating", use "an orange kitten in a blue apron stirring salmon fried rice")
- Scene + Environment: Describe time, location, and background (e.g., "cozy kitchen at sunset, sunlit window")
- Style + Lighting: Set the visual tone (e.g., "cinematic lighting", "watercolor animation style")
- Audio Elements: Specify sounds, dialogue, or music (e.g., "background sound: sizzling rice， dialogue: 'This smells good!'")
Pitfalls to Avoid
Pitfalls to Avoid
- Vague terms: e.g., "nice scene", "cool video" (AI cannot interpret vague styles)
- Overloading ideas: e.g., "a cat cooking while a dog runs and a rainbow appears" (leads to messy visuals)
- Ignoring audio descriptions: Veo 3.1's audio-visual sync is a core strength—omitting audio wastes this feature
Core Capabilities of Veo 3.1
As an upgraded model launched by Google in 2025, Veo 3.1 enhances "creative controllability" based on Veo 3—turning AI generation from "hit-or-miss" to "precision-driven". Its core capabilities cover three key areas: video, audio, and style.
Higher-Quality Generation
Higher-Quality Generation
- Resolution & Duration: Supports 720p/1080p HD output, with 3 optional durations (4s, 6s, 8s) to fit editing needs across platforms.
- Aspect Ratio Adaptation: Defaults to 16:9 (landscape, ideal for YouTube) and 9:16 (portrait, perfect for TikTok/Reels);
- Scene Understanding: Accurately interprets complex narratives (e.g., "multi-character interactions" or "continuous actions") to avoid frame jumps and improve story coherence.
More Immersive Audio-Visual Synchronization
More Immersive Audio-Visual Synchronization
A key upgrade of Veo 3.1 is audio generation—no extra voiceover needed. You can specify sound elements directly in prompts:
- Ambient sounds: for example, "rain tapping on windows", "waves crashing on the shore"
- Dialogue: Add "dialogue: 'XXX'" to generate natural human voices
- Music styles: Supports "synthwave", "soft piano", "orchestral strings", etc.
More Flexible Creative Control
More Flexible Creative Control
- Image-to-Video Optimization: After uploading a reference image, AI generates animations that align with prompt descriptions (e.g., "Animate the cat in the reference image while preserving its oil-painting style").
- Element Consistency: Use "reference image + prompt" to keep characters/styles consistent across clips (e.g., "All clips follow Studio Ghibli's animation style, with the protagonist being a girl in a red hat").
- Seamless Transitions: The "Start Frame + End Frame" feature lets AI generate transitional videos (e.g., "Transition from an 'empty classroom' frame to a 'classroom full of students' frame, simulating the scene after the school bell rings").
- Element Addition/Removal: Add/remove objects in videos (e.g., "Add a brand logo next to the coffee cup") without disrupting the original composition.
Note: This feature currently uses the Veo 2 model and does not support audio generation.
