# Video Generation
Generate videos from text descriptions using Google's Veo model via the `generate_video` tool.
## Setup
1. Enable video generation in Settings UI or set `NOMOS_VIDEO_GENERATION=true`
2. Get a Gemini API key from https://aistudio.google.com/apikey (same key used for image generation)
3. Set `GEMINI_API_KEY` in Settings or environment
## Tool: `generate_video`
**Parameters:**
- `prompt` (required) — Detailed description of the video to generate
- `output_path` (optional) — File path to save the video (defaults to temp directory)
- `duration_seconds` (optional) — Video duration in seconds (1-30)
**Note:** Video generation is a long-running operation. It typically takes 1-3 minutes to complete.
## Writing Effective Video Prompts
Good video prompts describe motion and time, not just a static scene. Include:
- **Subject and action**: What is happening, who/what is moving
- **Camera work**: Pan, tilt, zoom, tracking shot, static, drone shot, handheld
- **Scene setting**: Location, time of day, weather, environment
- **Style**: Cinematic, documentary, slow motion, timelapse, animation
- **Mood and atmosphere**: Lighting, color grading, emotional tone
- **Temporal flow**: What happens first, then next
### Prompt Examples
**Simple:**
> A drone shot slowly flying over a misty mountain range at sunrise
**Cinematic:**
> A slow-motion close-up of a coffee cup being filled with espresso, steam rising, warm golden light from a nearby window, shallow depth of
