Video Generation

Overview

NanoMaker offers several ways to create AI video. Use one subscription and shared credits across all of them.

Main entry: The Video page is the hub. From there you can use the built-in generator (multiple video models) or open a specialized tool.

How to Use

Video models (summary)

Credit cost and duration depend on the model and the options you choose. The app shows the exact cost before you generate. Below is a rough guide; check the pricing page or the generator UI for current values.

Nano Banana Video adds the Nano Banana 2 image step (6-15 credits) on top of the video model cost. Total is shown on the Nano Banana Video page before you click Generate.

Prompt Writing

Good video prompts describe both the scene and the motion.

Prompt Structure:

[Subject/Action] + [Setting] + [Motion] + [Camera] + [Lighting] + [Mood]

Waves crashing on rocky shore at sunset, slow motion, 
dramatic clouds moving overhead, wide cinematic shot, 
golden hour lighting, peaceful atmosphere

Smartphone rotating 360 degrees on white background, 
smooth continuous motion, professional product photography, 
studio lighting, elegant and clean

Young woman walking through busy Tokyo street at night, 
neon lights reflecting on wet pavement, camera following 
from behind, cyberpunk atmosphere, moody and atmospheric

Colorful paint droplets falling into water in slow motion, 
creating beautiful swirling patterns, macro close-up shot, 
black background, vibrant colors, mesmerizing

Motion Keywords

Use these keywords to describe movement:

Camera Movement: "camera zooms in/out", "camera pans left/right", "camera tilts up/down", "dolly shot moving forward", "rotating around subject"

Subject Movement: "walking slowly", "running fast", "floating gently", "spinning/rotating", "emerging from"

Environment: "wind blowing", "rain falling", "clouds moving", "sun rising/setting", "leaves swirling"

Realistic generation latency (waiting time)

This is waiting time after clicking Generate, not the finished clip length (5s / 10s / 15s, etc.).

Practical expectations:

• Faster jobs / lighter models: about 2–3 minutes
• Typical (most video models): about 2–5 minutes
• Slower / complex prompts + many references / busy queue: about 3–5 minutes, sometimes longer

Actual runtime depends on queue load, model, and how many media references you provide.
