To create a video from a photo, you have to select "Video" from the Gemini toolbar. Once this feature is available, you can then add your image and prompt, including audio and dialogue. Generating the video takes several minutes—this process takes a lot of computation, which is why video output is still quite limited.

Google said on Thursday it's adding an image-to-video generation feature to its Veo 3 AI video generator through its Gemini app.
