Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash Adds 40-Second Scene Extension and First-to-Last-Frame Video Control
- Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash can extend a scene in 10-second increments to a cumulative 40 seconds, using up to 10 seconds of prior footage as context for each new generation.
- Developers can supply first and last frames to generate motion between them, supporting specified camera moves, zooms, and transitions without generating an entire shot from scratch.
- The model still generates only 3 to 10 seconds per pass and accepts video references up to 3 seconds, so longer sequences require repeated extensions rather than a single long-form generation.
- Google prices API video generation at about $0.03 per second for 360p and $0.10 per second for 720p; 360p is intended for cheaper preview iterations.
- Omni 1.1 is available in Google AI Studio, the Gemini API, Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, and Google Flow; 1080p and 4K outputs use upscaling rather than native generation.
