Best Practices for AI Image Generation in Google Vids

  • Be specific with details: Instead of "a cat," try "a fluffy orange cat lounging on a gray sofa in morning sunlight." The more detailed your prompt, the closer the result matches your vision.
  • Add context and style: Include information about location, perspective, and artistic style (3D, animation, watercolor, photorealistic, etc.) so the AI delivers what you actually want.
  • Keep prompts concise and focused: Avoid rambling descriptions or mixing multiple unrelated ideas in one prompt. Each prompt should concentrate on a single subject or scene.
  • Regenerate if unsatisfied: AI produces different results for the same prompt. If the first attempt misses the mark, regenerate or refine your description rather than settling.
  • Review before inserting: Examine layout, colors, proportions, and content carefully to ensure the image aligns with your video's message.
  • Respect copyright and content standards: Use AI images only for appropriate purposes. Avoid creating copyrighted content, misleading imagery, or material unsuitable for your audience.

How to Edit Images in Google Vids

Once you've added images to Google Vids, you can refine them using built-in editing tools or AI-powered text commands. Thanks to these AI features, you can transform images on the fly without relying on external editing software.

Two particularly useful functions are background removal and AI-powered image editing. These shine when you want to highlight your subject, create visual impact, or adjust images to fit your video's layout. Simply select an image on the canvas and choose your desired editing tool.

If the result looks good, keep using the background-removed version in your video.

Note: Background removal is permanent within the editor. There's no built-in undo option for this specific operation. If you need the original, use the undo button to revert to the previous state.

Edit Images in Google Vids Using AI Commands

Click on your image, then select the AI edit icon.

After AI-generated edits complete, review the image before replacing it in your scene. This safeguard prevents accidentally using a version that doesn't meet your standards. Keep in mind that AI suggestions may occasionally produce unexpected results, so always verify output quality before finalizing.
