Google Photos Video Remix uses Gemini Omni to transform ordinary clips through templates.
Google is rolling out Google Photos Video Remix for Google Photos, a new AI-powered editing feature that transforms videos using ready-made templates and generative effects.
Powered by Gemini Omni, Google’s multimodal AI model, the feature is designed to help users create stylised video clips without professional editing skills or dedicated video software.
Available through the Create tab in Google Photos, Video Remix lets users apply effects such as cinematic relighting, background changes and artistic styles including watercolour, raw sketchbook and oil painting.
Google says users can, for example, make a video appear as though it was filmed in a greenhouse, add a morning glow to a dark clip, or transform footage into a watercolour-style animation.
