How to prompt Veo 3.1

Think like a director of photography: one shot, a lens, a light, and what the microphone hears.

One shot, one move

Veo excels at a single continuous shot. Name the subject, the action, and one camera move — push-in, slow tilt, tracking — and stop. Two moves in one prompt usually cancel each other.

TryA lone rider crosses a mirror-flat salt lake at dawn, wide anamorphic framing, slow push-in, hooves echoing

Put dialogue in quotes

Veo 3.1 speaks. Write the line inside quotation marks and say who delivers it and how. Keep it to a sentence; eight seconds is not long.

TryAn old fisherman on a pier, gulls overhead, he looks at the camera and says "the tide waits for no one", warm evening light

Hold a character with references

Up to three reference images fix a face, an outfit, a product or a style across the shot. Use the same references on the next prompt and the character survives the cut.

TryReference: three photos of the same ceramic mug. Prompt: the mug on a marble counter, morning light, steam rising, slow orbit

Describe the sound as its own line

Ambience and effects are generated with the picture, so give them their own clause: what the room sounds like, one or two specific effects, whether there is music. Silence reads as a choice, not a default.

TryA bakery at 5 a.m., dough thumping on the counter, oven door creak, the first tray sliding in, no music
