How to Use Gemini Omni (Step-by-Step Tutorial)

About this video

Kevin Stratvert walks through Google Omni, which he describes as Google’s latest AI video creation model, accessed for free through the Gemini app by signing in and clicking the Videos icon. He creates a cinematic text-to-video shot of the Kevin Cookie Company storefront, choosing landscape or vertical format, then shows iterative editing: instead of starting over, he prompts Omni to turn the sunny afternoon scene into a nighttime scene. He notes the same editing works on your own uploaded videos (via upload or Google Drive), and that finished videos can be shared via a public link or social platforms, or downloaded. He also demonstrates using a reference image to apply a cartoon visual style to a video (noting a few glitches), and creating a personal avatar by scanning a QR code on a phone, saying numbers and rotating his head, then referencing it with @me and adding dialogue, sound effects and music to the prompt. He closes by pointing to the Library for past generations and to Google Flow for larger, more complex projects built on the same Omni technology.

Key takeaways

• Access Omni in the Gemini app via the Videos icon after signing in with a Google account; generation can take a few minutes depending on demand.
• More detailed text prompts tend to produce better results, and Gemini itself can be used to help craft the prompt.
• Edit iteratively with follow-up prompts (e.g., day to night) instead of regenerating from scratch, including on videos you upload yourself.
• Reference images can transfer a visual style to a video, though Kevin notes the cartoon-style result had a few glitches.
• Avatars are set up by scanning a QR code, recording numbers and head movements, then invoked with @me; prompts can include dialogue, sound effects and music.
