    Google DeepMind releases Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash with 15-second clips and 30% lower price

    Google DeepMind rolled out Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash, now generally available across the Gemini API and Gemini for business, with native 15-second video generation, multi-turn conversational editing and stronger reference following. The price drops 30% from Gemini Omni 1.1 to $0.07 per second for 720p video, and users can draft at 360p or 720p before upscaling to 1080p or 4K. Clips can be set from 3 to 15 seconds in one-second increments, and outputs carry an imperceptible SynthID watermark.

    Why it matters: Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash raises native clip length to 15 seconds and cuts the price 30% to $0.07 per second of 720p video, with multi-turn conversational editing now generally available.

    Google releases Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash with 15-second clips and a 30% price cut

    Google DeepMind rolled out Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash and made it generally available across the Gemini API and Gemini for business. The model generates and edits native clips up to 15 seconds, up from 10 seconds in Omni 1.1, supports multi-turn conversational editing, and holds character, product, and style references more consistently; 720p video now costs $0.07 per second, 30% less than Omni 1.1. Outputs carry a SynthID watermark, and the model is rolling out in Flow, Google Vids, the Gemini app, and Google Ads.

    Why it matters: Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash cuts the price 30% to $0.07 per second for 720p video while extending native clips to 15 seconds, giving teams producing video at scale a cheaper option to compare against prior versions.

    MiniMax launches H3, a general-purpose multimodal generation model with native stereo video at 2K

    MiniMax launched H3, a general-purpose multimodal generation model that understands text, images, video and audio as a unified context and generates video with native stereo sound up to 15 seconds at 2K resolution. The company says 2K output costs less than a third of mainstream models per second, and it plans to open the model weights in the coming days subject to applicable laws and regulations. H3 is built on Contextual Omni Representation, H3-VAE, H3-Omni Transformer and In-Context Regeneration, and MiniMax says a full technical report is coming soon.

    Why it matters: MiniMax's H3 unifies text, image, video and audio generation in one model and claims 2K pricing below a third of mainstream models, with weights promised soon.

    OpenAI updates Sora 2 prompting guide with character references, 20s clips and video extension

    OpenAI updated its Sora 2 prompting guide to cover new API capabilities: reusable character references for objects and animals, 1920×1080 and 1080×1920 exports, a maximum clip length raised from 12s to 20s, video extension that uses the full original clip as context, and a Batch API for asynchronous video jobs. The guide also walks through prompt structure for shot framing, camera motion, lighting and dialogue, and notes that resolution, duration and character IDs must be set as API parameters rather than described in prose. Extensions of up to 20 seconds are supported, and a video can be extended up to 6 times for a total of 120s.

    Why it matters: OpenAI's updated Sora 2 prompting guide details new API capabilities such as character references, 20s clips and video extension, plus reusable prompt templates for controlling shots.
