Google Veo 3 AI Video Creation with Sound | High-Quality Video from Text Prompts
At Google I/O 2025, Google introduced Veo 3, its most advanced AI video generation model to date. Veo 3 enables users to create high-quality videos from text or image prompts and includes synchronized sound, setting a new standard for generative video content.
What is Google Veo 3?
Veo 3 is a generative AI video model developed by DeepMind and Google Research. It allows users to generate realistic video content by simply entering descriptive prompts. Unlike its predecessors, Veo 3 supports both video and audio generation, offering a complete audiovisual experience.
Key features of Google Veo 3 include:
High-Quality Visual Output: Supports 1080p resolution and understands complex scenes, realistic physics, and human motion.
Audio Integration: Adds voiceovers, dialogue, sound effects, and background music to match video content.
Prompt Flexibility: Accepts text and image inputs to generate videos tailored to user intent.
Enterprise Integration: Available on Google’s Vertex AI for businesses and through the Gemini app for Pro users.
Sound to Video: A Key Innovation
One of the major upgrades in Veo 3 is its ability to create audio that matches the video content. This includes automatically generated:
Dialogue: Speech that is synced with character lip movements.
Ambient Sounds: Realistic background audio like nature, crowds, or machinery.
Sound Effects: Context-aware sounds such as footsteps, doors closing, or weather effects.
Music: Thematic background music that matches the tone and pace of the video.
This integrated sound generation significantly enhances storytelling and improves the realism of AI-generated videos.
How to Access Google Veo 3
Google Veo 3 is available through the Google AI Ultra subscription plan, priced at $249.99 per month in the U.S. Users can take advantage of a promotional 50% discount for the first three months, reducing the cost to $124.99 per month during that period. For enterprise users, Veo 3 is accessible via Google’s Vertex AI platform, with usage-based pricing starting at approximately $0.35 per second of generated video. Actual costs may vary depending on usage volume and configuration. New Google Cloud users may also receive $300 in free credits, which can be applied to Veo 3 projects on Vertex AI for up to 90 days, allowing for initial experimentation at no cost. For the latest details, users should refer to the official Google Cloud pricing documentation.
