What Veo 3.1 Actually Is in MaxVideoAI
On paper, Veo 3.1 is DeepMind’s latest short-form video model with richer audio and tighter prompt adherence.
In MaxVideoAI, Veo 3.1 is exposed as a controlled, production-ready engine:
MaxVideoAI wraps all of this in a simple flow:
- 1. Pick Veo 3.1 as the engine.
- 2. Choose Text → Video or Image → Video.
- 3. Set duration (4/6/8 s), aspect ratio, and resolution (720p or 1080p).
- 4. Choose framing/tone presets, then paste a structured prompt.
- 5. See the final price per clip before you generate.
- 6. Compare against other engines in the same GUI.
Real Specs – Veo 3.1 in MaxVideoAI (720p/1080p, 4–8s)
These specs describe Veo 3.1 exactly as you can use it today via MaxVideoAI – not theoretical lab demos.
Aspect Ratios
- 16:9 – horizontal / web video
- 9:16 – vertical / Reels / Shorts / TikTok
- 1:1 – square / feed placements
Inputs & File Types
- Text prompts written like a shot list (1–3 sentences for single-beat clips; Shot 1/2/3 for 8s sequences)
- Reference images: PNG, JPG, WebP; up to 4 stills to lock identity, wardrobe and lighting
- Image → Video: animate a single still (from Nano Banana or your own assets) into a 4–8s shot
- No direct video input in this configuration; use Extend and sequencing for longer arcs
Audio
- Native audio on by default (VO, ambience, SFX)
- Toggle audio off for cheaper silent renders when you will design sound later
- Treat Veo audio as a first-draft soundtrack, then polish timing and loudness in post
Pricing
- Per-second model inside MaxVideoAI
- Example config: perSecondCentsAudioOn = 40; perSecondCentsAudioOff = 20
- Audio on (~$0.40/s): 4s ≈ $1.60; 6s ≈ $2.40; 8s ≈ $3.20
- Audio off (~$0.20/s): 4s ≈ $0.80; 6s ≈ $1.20; 8s ≈ $1.60
- No subscription: top up your MaxVideoAI wallet and preview price before render
Render timing
- Add observed render-time note here (e.g., live queue estimates shown in-app for expected start/finish)
Veo 3.1 in MaxVideoAI gives you framing presets, native audio control, seeds and Extend—so it behaves like a directable camera, not a black box.

Write prompts like a short director’s note, built around cinematography, subject, action, context and style.
1Cinematography and framing – medium close-up, wide tracking shot, top-down macro, etc.
2Subject – who or what we see.
3Action – what happens in 4–8 seconds.
4Context / environment – office, city street at night, kitchen studio, classroom.
5Style and ambiance – cinematic, realistic, documentary; lighting and grade.
6Audio cues – ambience, music style, one short VO line; specify no subtitles if you don’t want on-screen text.
7Format and length – e.g., 8 seconds, 16:9 (or 9:16 / 1:1).
Medium shot of [subject] in [environment], [clear action] over 8 seconds. Camera [movement], 16:9 at 1080p, cinematic look with [lighting and color]. Audio: [ambience] + [music/VO cue], no subtitles.
Drop that into MaxVideoAI, choose Veo 3.1, set duration/orientation, and you’re ready to render.
Image-to-Video Workflow with Veo 3.1 (+ Nano Banana)
Pair Veo 3.1 with Nano Banana to lock style and iterate on motion.
- Generate 1–4 reference stills in Nano Banana (or import your brand stills).
- Send them into Veo 3.1 as reference images in Text→Video, or start from a single still in Image→Video.
- Focus your prompt on motion, timing and audio: how the camera moves, how the subject moves, and how the beat should end at 4/6/8s.
- Regenerate with the same references to keep identity consistent.
- On-brand product hero clips
- Logo and title animations with consistent backgrounds
- Short explainer visuals based on diagrams or UI stills
Multi-Shot & Sequenced Clips – Directed 8s Beats in Veo 3.1
Veo 3.1 can compress a mini-sequence into a single 6 or 8 second clip when you write a structured prompt.
Use seeds and Extend to keep framing consistent across beats.
- Aim for 2–3 shots per 8-second clip.
- One main action and one clear camera move per beat.
- Keep subject, wardrobe and environment consistent; use references to lock them.
- Treat it as one scene with multiple angles rather than many locations.
- Extend strong shots to build 12–24s establishing sequences.

Shot 1 (0–3 s): macro close-up of one earbud rotating slowly on a wooden desk, shallow depth of field, warm desk lamp glow.
Shot 2 (3–6 s): medium shot of a young professional putting the earbuds in before stepping onto a busy city street, subtle bokeh lights.
Shot 3 (6–8 s): close-up of the charging case clicking shut next to a laptop, soft logo reflection in the lid.
Camera: smooth dolly moves between shots, handheld feel but not shaky.
Lighting: evening, warm indoors transitioning to cool street light, gentle film grain.
Audio: city ambience low in the mix, soft electronic music bed, short VO line: “Block the noise, keep the focus.” No subtitles.
Negative: no brand names, no on-screen text, no extreme wide angles.
- Clear 3-beat structure with coherent environment and defined cinematography.
- Realistic VO that fits in 8 seconds; explicit no-subtitles call to avoid unwanted text overlays.
Tips & Limitations in Plain English
- Strong camera control via framing presets and motion cues
- Great for ads, explainers and campaigns that need consistency across variants
- Native audio for first-pass sound design and VO
- Handles short, focused sequences better than chaotic prompts
- Clips are 4–8 seconds; use Extend and editing to go longer
- 1080p max – no 4K outputs in this configuration
- Tiny text and detailed UI are hit-or-miss; overlay critical copy in post
- If it drifts, tighten subject and camera instructions and reduce actions
Lean into these constraints and Veo 3.1 becomes a repeatable, directable tool instead of a slot machine.
Safety, People & Likeness
- Do not generate real public figures, politicians or celebrities.
- No minors in risky or suggestive contexts; no explicit sexual content or hateful/violent scenes.
- Avoid using real people’s likeness without consent.
- Some prompts and images may be blocked or adjusted by provider policies; this is expected.
- Generic characters and scenes are fine.
- Provider policies and SynthID-style provenance apply; MaxVideoAI adds its own safety filters.
These guardrails keep Veo 3.1 usable and compliant for professional work.
