[00:00] In this video, I’ll show you how to use&nbsp; Google Omni step by step. Omni is Google's&nbsp;&nbsp; latest AI video creation model, capable&nbsp; of generating and editing videos, audio,&nbsp;&nbsp; and more from simple prompts. We'll create videos,&nbsp; make edits, generate audio, and use some of the&nbsp;&nbsp;
[00:16] most powerful features available today. And the&nbsp; good news is you can start using Omni for free.&nbsp; I'm Kevin, and let's dive in! Woo! To get started, head to the following website.&nbsp;&nbsp;
[00:34] You'll find a link right down below. First off,&nbsp; make sure you're signed in with your Google&nbsp;&nbsp; account. This takes us to the main Google Gemini&nbsp; app. To access Omni, over on the left-hand side,&nbsp;&nbsp; let's click on the videos icon. Right here at&nbsp; the top of the page, you'll now see that we can&nbsp;&nbsp;
[00:49] create with Omni. Let's start by creating&nbsp; our first video. We'll keep it simple and&nbsp;&nbsp; generate a video from a text prompt. Now right&nbsp; down here, we have the prompt box. And here,&nbsp;&nbsp; you can enter a description of the video that&nbsp; you'd like to create. In general, the more details&nbsp;&nbsp;
[01:04] you provide, the better the result tends to be.&nbsp; And one of my favorite tricks, right up here,&nbsp;&nbsp; you can even go back and use Gemini to help&nbsp; you craft the perfect prompt. Right over here,&nbsp;&nbsp; I'll enter in my prompt. Now, in this example,&nbsp; I'm going to create a cinematic shot of the Kevin&nbsp;&nbsp;
[01:18] Cookie Company storefront. If you need more space&nbsp; while writing your prompt, you can click right&nbsp;&nbsp; here and that will expand to the editor. Now,&nbsp; down below, you can also choose whether you'd&nbsp;&nbsp; like to create a landscape or vertical video. I'll&nbsp; stick with the default landscape option. Now, once&nbsp;&nbsp;
[01:34] you're ready, click on the generate icon. Google&nbsp; Omni will now create the video based on your&nbsp;&nbsp; prompt. Depending on demand, this could take a few&nbsp; minutes. All right, let's see how it turned out.
[01:47] Mom, look at those giant chocolate chip ones. need to start over every time you&nbsp; want to make a change. Instead,&nbsp;&nbsp;
[02:00] you can describe the edits you'd like to make and&nbsp; Omni updates the video for you. For this example,&nbsp;&nbsp; let's transform our sunny afternoon scene into&nbsp; a nighttime scene. Right down below, I'll enter&nbsp;&nbsp;
[02:12] in my prompt. Once you finish typing in, over&nbsp; here, click on generate. Let's check it out. Mom, look at those giant chocolate chip ones.
[02:26] With Omni, you can take an iterative approach to&nbsp; refine your videos. First, generate an initial&nbsp;&nbsp; video, then make tweaks and continue refining&nbsp; it until you're happy with the result. You can&nbsp;&nbsp; also edit videos just like this with videos&nbsp; that you created yourself. Right down below,&nbsp;&nbsp;
[02:42] simply click on the plus icon and over here,&nbsp; you can upload a file, or alternatively,&nbsp;&nbsp; you can go down to more uploads and you can add&nbsp; a video file from Drive. You simply upload it;&nbsp;&nbsp; describe the changes you'd like to make and&nbsp; then Omni will update it for you. Now once&nbsp;&nbsp;
[02:56] you're happy with the result, right over here,&nbsp; you can click on the share icon and here you'll&nbsp;&nbsp; get a public link. You can also share it on&nbsp; various social platforms or if you prefer,&nbsp;&nbsp; you can click on the three dots and here you can&nbsp; simply download the video directly to your PC.&nbsp;&nbsp;
[03:10] Another powerful capability in Google Omni is the&nbsp; ability to use reference images to influence the&nbsp;&nbsp; look and feel of your videos. I've always wondered&nbsp; what the cookie company store would look like in a&nbsp;&nbsp; cartoon style. Right down below, let's click on&nbsp; the plus icon and right up on top, I'll upload&nbsp;&nbsp;
[03:26] a file. There's the file, now I'll click on that&nbsp; and then open. Next, I need to type in my prompt.&nbsp;&nbsp; I'll basically tell it to apply the visual style&nbsp; from this image to the storefront video that we&nbsp;&nbsp; pulled together. Once you do that, over here,&nbsp; click on generate. Let's see how it turned out.
[03:44] Mom, look at those giant chocolate chip ones. There were a few glitches, but overall,&nbsp; that's really impressive. Google Omni&nbsp;&nbsp;
[03:56] also allows you to create avatars that you&nbsp; can use in your videos. Right down below,&nbsp;&nbsp; you'll see an option for avatar. Select&nbsp; that. Now right here, let's click on try now.
[04:09] Next, you'll need to scan this QR code with your&nbsp; phone and then run through the screens to set&nbsp;&nbsp; up your avatar. You'll need to say some numbers&nbsp; and also rotate your head. Back here in Gemini,&nbsp;&nbsp; you'll notice that it has inserted my name. Now,&nbsp; as an alternative, you can also refer to your&nbsp;&nbsp;
[04:26] avatar by typing in @me. Now that I've referred to&nbsp; the avatar, you can also just go ahead and enter&nbsp;&nbsp; in your prompt. Here, I'll describe what I want&nbsp; to have happen in the video. Here's a neat tip.&nbsp;&nbsp; You can also include dialogue. Over here, I want&nbsp; my avatar to say this line. Along with dialogue,&nbsp;&nbsp;
[04:42] you can also call out sound effects, music and&nbsp; other audio elements for your videos. Once you&nbsp;&nbsp; finish entering in your prompt, let's&nbsp; try generating it. Let's now play it. Welcome to the Kevin Cookie Company.
[04:56] Come inside and try our freshly baked cookies. we get back to them? Over on the left-hand side,&nbsp; let's click on the library icon. And here, you'll&nbsp;&nbsp;
[05:11] find all the videos that you've generated. Now&nbsp; here, you could click on any one of these videos,&nbsp;&nbsp; and that'll jump you directly back into the chat&nbsp; where you can continue refining them or you could&nbsp;&nbsp; also download them later. Throughout this video,&nbsp; we've been using Google Omni through the Gemini&nbsp;&nbsp;
[05:25] app. If you'd like to create larger projects,&nbsp; Google also offers a tool called Google Flow.&nbsp;&nbsp; You'll find the link right down below. Flow uses&nbsp; the same underlying Omni technology, but provides&nbsp;&nbsp; a workspace that's designed specifically for video&nbsp; creation. It makes it easier to organize projects,&nbsp;&nbsp;
[05:42] manage assets, and work with more complex video&nbsp; productions. If you're just getting started,&nbsp;&nbsp; I recommend using the Gemini app. As&nbsp; your projects become more advanced,&nbsp;&nbsp; you may want to explore Google Flow as well.&nbsp; Let me know what you think of Google Omni.&nbsp;&nbsp;
[05:55] Write down below in the comments. Also, let&nbsp; me know if you'd like to see a full tutorial&nbsp;&nbsp; on Google Flow. Thanks for watching,&nbsp; and I'll see you in the next video.
