Write a detailed prompt Veo 4 excels at following precise instructions. Include subject, action, setting, lighting, camera movement, and mood. Example: 'A drone shot rises above a foggy mountain valley at sunrise, revealing a medieval village below, cinematic color grade, slow push-in.'
Set duration Choose between 5 and 30 seconds. Longer durations are better for narrative sequences; shorter clips work well for loops and transitions.
