# Veo 3.1

> Video from your words, or from a first and last frame, in wide or tall — and it can make the clip's own sound.

**Veo 3.1** makes video from your words, or brings a first frame — and a last one, if you add it — to life, wide or tall. *"The model can make the clip's own sound."* When Studio offers it, you find it under **Videos** on Studio's home and **Generation** in **Choose a model**.

The price is never written here — prices change. It is on the model's page in Studio: on the **Make** button and beside each length, size or quality that changes it, before you press.

## Writing for it

- **Choose a length first** — it has no default, and the price shows once you do: *"Choose a length to see the price."*
- Turn **Sound** on for a take with its own sound; it starts off.
- Reference pictures are not part of it here; to follow your pictures, start from a frame.
- Your words go to it as you wrote them.
