Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash lets you build with more control

Omni now delivers studio-quality video production, including the ability to extend a scene, first and last frame interpolation, crisp 4K upscaling, faster prototyping, and more.

Today, we’re introducing Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash, a new suite of creative controls and generative video capabilities to support developers. Gemini Omni brought real-world reasoning to generative creation, and today’s updates make Omni 1.1 production-ready for professional use via the Gemini API in Google AI Studio.

Whether you’re building generative video workflows, creative tools, or media editing software, these updates make generative video more controllable, faster to iterate on, and polished for real-world deployment. Here’s a look at what’s new:

Extend scenes for longer storytelling

Scene extension allows you to take an existing video and continue generating footage seamlessly from where it left off.

With Omni 1.1, the model can now analyze up to 10 seconds of prior context — a leap from previous models that only referenced the final second. The result is improved visual consistency and narrative adherence, letting you build longer stories or branch into new creative directions. You can extend videos in 10-second increments up to a total cumulative length of 40 seconds.

from google import genai

client = genai.Client()

interaction = client.interactions.create(
    model="gemini-omni-1.1-flash",
    previous_interaction_id=previous_video_interaction.id,
    input=[
        {"type": "text", "text": "Continue the scene."}
    ],
    response_format={
        "resolution": "360p",
    },
)

Specify first and last frames

Achieve smooth transitions and camera movements by specifying the starting and ending frames of a shot. Omni 1.1 generates continuous video between two keyframes, making it ideal for complex camera orbits, zoom transitions, or seamless looping clips.

Draft videos more efficiently in 360p

Generate lightweight previews in 360p resolution up to 60% faster and at a third of the cost compared to Omni 1.1’s standard 720p resolution. This is helpful for rapid prototyping, storyboard iteration, and quick rendering in developer platforms.

Upscale up to 4K resolution

Generate polished, high-resolution 1080p or 4K outputs that are ready for professional production with Omni 1.1.

Add video references in your multimodal input

Reference up to three seconds of video when crafting your scene, allowing you to maintain visual context and character consistency based on video references.

Inspiring concepts for what you can build

Here are a few ideas showing how developers can put these new capabilities into action across custom tools and creative workflows.

See how customers are putting Omni Flash in production

Our customers are already driving real-world production with Gemini Omni Flash via the Agent Platform API.

“Gemini Omni Flash is one of the strongest video models available in Figma Weave, where the canvas helps creative teams build on every generation — attaching references, branching different versions, and shaping something unique. With extensions, richer reference material, and 4K resolution, Gemini Omni Flash takes teams beyond generating videos to truly directing them.” - Itay Schiff, Creative Director, Figma Weave.

“At GMI Cloud, we give creators centralized access to the world’s most capable models. What stands out about Gemini Omni Flash is its accuracy: the details hold up under scrutiny. For customers creating educational and explanatory content, where getting things right is essential, that reliability matters more than any single feature. Omni has made AI video viable for a segment that previously couldn’t rely on it.” - Louisa Guo, VP of Marketing, GMI Cloud.

“Omni Flash fits naturally into how people already use Runway: start with a prompt, an image or a video, then generate or edit from there. It's another way for our users to move quickly between ideas.” – Jamie Umpherson, Chief Creative Officer, Runway.
