Prompt tips for Google Veo 3.1 + Visual examples

Veo 3.1 responds best to clear, detailed prompts that describe the scene, mood, and motion you want to generate. The more specific you are with visual elements and tone, the better the model can match your intent. Below are some practical tips to help you get consistent, high-quality results:

• Be specific in your prompt: mention camera angle, lighting, motion style, and audio cues.

• Use reference images for consistent character look or style continuity.

• Leverage first and last frame uploads to control scene progression or transformation.

• Start with simple scenes, then increase complexity as you refine your inputs.

Example 1

Prompt:

Wide shot: A woman sits on a sandy beach, engrossed in a book. The camera gently pans from left to right, capturing the serene waves and distant hills. Soft sunlight bathes the scene, enhancing the tranquil ambiance.

Example 2

Prompt:

[Opening Cut] Wide Shot — A vibrant cycling class fills the frame as enthusiastic participants pedal energetically — the camera glides laterally to capture their smiles and determination — bright, natural light floods through large windows, creating an uplifting atmosphere. [Final Cut] Close-Up — Focus on the lead cyclist's joyful expression as she laughs, pushing through the workout — the camera pushes in, emphasizing her contagious energy — warm tones enhance the sense of camaraderie and motivation. Voice-over: "Let's go!"

Example 3

Prompt:

Tracking shot: A middle-aged couple walks side by side along a quiet coastal road, colorful seaside cottages behind them and a vibrant turquoise sea in the background. The camera moves smoothly alongside them at a medium distance, capturing their casual conversation as they exchange short lines with soft smiles. Warm golden sunlight bathes the scene, enhancing the nostalgic, summery vibe. Their expressions are relaxed and natural, as if lost in shared memories. The atmosphere is calm and heartfelt, like a moment from a romantic drama. Shot in 35mm film style with subtle film grain for a vintage cinematic touch.
