Veo 3 is now available at fal

Veo 3 is the latest state-of-the-art video generation model from Google DeepMind, and it's now first available as an API through fal. You can start creating with Veo3 today at https://fal.ai/models/fal-ai/veo3.

This revolutionary model brings three game-changing capabilities to AI video generation:

  • Improved quality when generating videos from text and image prompts
  • Speech capabilities, including natural dialogue and voice-overs
  • Audio generation, from ambient music to precise sound effects

Getting Started with Veo3

The easiest way to begin exploring Veo3's capabilities is through fal's API, where you can experiment with prompts and see immediate results. The model's ability to handle intricate prompt details opens up endless creative possibilities.

Understanding Veo3's Core Strengths

Intricate Prompt Handling

Veo3 excels at processing complex, detailed prompts that combine multiple elements—from camera specifications to narrative dialogue. The model can seamlessly weave together technical cinematography with creative storytelling.

Audio-Visual Integration

Beyond silent films, Veo3 brings scenes to life with synchronized sound effects, ambient audio, and spoken dialogue with accurate lip-sync. The model understands the intrinsic relationship between visual elements and their corresponding sounds.

A low-angle shot shows an open, light purple door leading from a room with light purple walls and a gray floor to a vibrant outdoor scene. Lush green grass and wildflowers spill from the doorway onto the indoor floor, creating a whimsical transition between spaces. Beyond the door, rolling green hills dotted with more wildflowers stretch towards a bright, clear sky. A single tree stands prominently in the foreground of the outdoor scene, its leaves adding depth to the view. The sunlight and natural elements contrast with the simplicity of the indoor space, inviting a sense of wonder and escape.

Physics and Realism

The model grounds its generations in real-world physics while maintaining creative flexibility, from fluid dynamics to complex object interactions.

Crafting Cinematic Prompts

Lens and Focus Techniques

Control depth and visual impact through precise lens specifications:

  • Focus styles: rack focus, tilt-shift, bokeh effects, split diopter
  • Lens types: fisheye, telephoto compression, anamorphic flares

Shot Composition

Define your frame with specific compositional elements:

  • Framing: extreme close-up, establishing shot, insert shot, cutaway
  • Subject arrangement: rule of thirds, leading lines, negative space

Genre and Style Direction

Dialogue and Character Interaction

When incorporating speech, be specific about tone, pacing, and context. The model can handle complex conversational dynamics with natural voice-overs and lip-sync.

Best Practices

  1. Layer your prompts: Start with the core action, then add technical specifications, style, and audio elements
  2. Be specific about timing: Use phrases like "gradual," "sudden," or "rhythmic" to control pacing
  3. Combine technical and creative language: Mix cinematography terms with evocative descriptions
  4. Consider cause and effect: Describe how actions influence the environment
