Google has introduced access to its Veo 3 video generation model via Vertex AI, an offering within the broader Google Cloud service. The model can create short videos using user prompts and is part of Google's expanding set of generative tools.
While the tool is not offered without cost, new users can activate a $300 Google Cloud credit. This trial covers all services within the platform, including Vertex AI, and remains valid for 90 days unless fully used earlier. Registration requires a credit or debit card for verification. No charges are made unless the account is upgraded after the trial ends.
Veo 3 is capable of producing video clips limited to eight seconds. Each clip includes both motion visuals and matching audio. The system responds to brief inputs and can produce content that reflects various speech accents, depending on the language and prompt.
Examples of what the model can generate have been posted as unlisted videos on Google’s YouTube channel. These clips reflect the system's ability to match visual details with spoken output in short formats.
Some students, however, began using Veo 3 before the cloud trial became available by enrolling in the Google One AI Student Plan. This program offers 15 months of free access, including use of Veo 3 in Fast mode. It requires either a .edu email address or a confirmed student status through Google’s verification system. Students can begin by visiting google.com/one, selecting the AI Student Plan, and completing verification. Once active, Veo 3 access is possible through the Gemini app. Users are advised to avoid using unverified email sources, as this may breach Google’s terms of use.
