AI-generated example: Veo 3.1 Fast image-to-video from a Nano Banana Pro still, prompted as a tracking shot, made through the same endpoint the studio offers. Illustrative, not customer work.
PromptTracking shot: the convertible drives toward the camera along the coastal road while the camera glides backward at the same speed, keeping the couple centered, the scarf flutters in the wind, sunlight glints on the chrome.
