Brand New: Gemini Omni Flash launched May 19, 2026. Currently rolling out to Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers. Also available inside Google Flow and integrated into YouTube Shorts.
What Is Gemini Omni?
“Omni” means it accepts any input (text, image, audio, video) and produces any output (video, image, audio, text). Other tools work in one direction — prompt in, clip out. Gemini Omni lets you refine a video through ongoing conversation, keeping characters, lighting, and details consistent across every edit.
Conversational Editing
Say “make the lighting warmer” or “slow down the last 3 seconds” — Omni edits the existing clip in place.
Any Input Type
Mix text, images, audio recordings, and existing video clips all in one single prompt.
Legible In-Frame Text
Renders readable text inside video — something no other AI video model does reliably yet.
Multi-Scene Narration
Generate full narrated multi-scene explainer videos from a single prompt.
Personal Avatar
Clone your voice and appearance to create a digital avatar for content creation.
SynthID Watermark
Every Omni video carries Google’s SynthID watermark — verifiable across Chrome and Search.

Writing Great Prompts
Every strong Gemini Omni prompt includes six key elements:
- Subject — who or what is in the video
- Action — what is happening
- Environment — where it takes place
- Camera — shot type, angle, movement
- Style / Mood — cinematic, documentary, animated
- Lighting — warm, dramatic, natural daylight
Prompt Examples — Weak vs Strong
Reference-based control: Upload an existing image or video alongside your text prompt. Omni analyzes the visual content and generates video grounded in what it actually sees — not just what words describe.
Conversational Editing — Omni’s Killer Feature
This is what makes Gemini Omni fundamentally different from every other AI video tool. Instead of regenerating the entire clip, you tell Omni exactly what to change — it edits the existing video while preserving everything else.
Edit Commands That Work
- “Make the lighting warmer and more golden”
- “Slow down the last 3 seconds”
- “Replace the background with a snowy mountain scene”
- “The person looks too stiff — make the movement more natural”
- “Keep the product exactly the same but change the background to a white studio”
- “Add animated text at the top that says ‘Limited Offer'”
- “Change to a low-angle upward shot”
- “Remove the person in the background but keep everything else”
Style Transfer Commands
- “Rerender this clip in a Pixar animation style”
- “Apply 1970s film grain and color grade to this footage”
- “Convert to black and white with high contrast”
- “Transform into a watercolor painting animation”
Personal Avatar Feature: Upload your voice recording to create a digital avatar version of yourself. Gemini Omni generates video content featuring that avatar — ideal for educators and content creators who want a consistent on-screen presence without filming.
