Google launches Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash for video generation and editing

Google says Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash can generate and edit video natively up to 15 seconds long, compared with a 10-second maximum for Omni 1.1.[1] Users can specify a duration in one-second increments from 3 to 15 seconds.[1] Google says the model can produce product explainers and full social-ad spots in a single generation.[1]

Google says users can guide generation with character, product or style images, motion clips of up to three seconds, and audio cues.[1] It also describes enhanced reference following and says faces, garments, packaging typography and brand colors stay consistent across camera angles.[1] The model supports multi-turn conversational video editing, and Google says users can correct a detail with a follow-up edit rather than regenerate the entire clip.[1]

Google says Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash is generally available across the Gemini API and Gemini for business.[1] Google’s developer account also said developers could build with it through the Gemini API.[2] Users can draft video at 360p or 720p, and Google says selected creations can be upscaled to 1080p or 4K.[1] Google lists 720p output at $0.07 per second and says the model costs 30% less than Gemini Omni 1.1.[1] Magnific separately announced availability on its platform for video creation and editing guided by image and video references.[2]
