01

What is Omni 1.2 Flash?

Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash is Google DeepMind’s video creation and editing model, released and generally available on November 5, 2026. It makes clips up to 15 seconds long with synchronised audio and lets you edit them by talking to it.

Generate a clip, then keep editing it in conversation instead of starting over.

02

What changed from Omni 1.1

Length
Up to 15 seconds, up from 10; pick any length from 3 to 15 seconds
Editing
Multi-turn edits: swap products or backgrounds, change lighting or weather, or switch aspect ratio
Price
30% lower, at $0.07 per second for 720p in the API
References
Keeps characters, products, and styles from your references more faithfully
Speech
More natural dialogue, clearer lip-sync, and multiple speakers
Stability
Less visual drift and fewer unwanted jump cuts
03

What you can give it

  • Text prompts
  • Reference images of characters or products
  • Short motion clips, up to three seconds
  • Audio cues
  • Your earlier clips, for multi-turn edits
04

05

A smart workflow

  • Draft at 360p or 720p to save money
  • Refine with conversational edits
  • Upscale the best result to 1080p or 4K
  • Export the aspect ratio you need
06

Write better prompts

A 12-second product video: a matte black water bottle on a wet rock by a mountain stream at sunrise, slow push-in, mist rising, gentle water sounds, ending on the bottle’s logo in sharp focus.

  • Describe subject, setting, action, camera, and sound
  • Use reference images for anything that must stay exact
  • Make one change per edit turn
07

Edit in conversation

  • “Make it rain and add thunder.”
  • “Swap the bottle for the green version.”
  • “Change to vertical 9:16.”
  • “Make the lighting warmer.”
08

Business uses

  • Product explainers and catalogue spins
  • Virtual try-on clips
  • Branded social ads and ad variants for different audiences
  • Short training and onboarding clips
09

Limits

  • Google says fast sports action, rapid script changes, and complex physics are still being improved
  • Clips longer than 15 seconds need stitching
  • Text and logos still need checking in every frame
10

Watermarks and responsible use

  • Every output carries Google’s invisible SynthID watermark
  • Label AI video where platforms or laws require it
  • Use only likenesses, products, and audio you have rights to

The golden rule

Do not regenerate from scratch every time. Draft cheaply, refine one change at a time in conversation, and upscale only the clip you will actually use.

  • 15 seconds
  • Multi-turn edits
  • $0.07/sec
  • References
  • Flow
  • Vids
  • SynthID

Make one 10-second draft in Google Vids or Flow today and try three conversational edits on it.
