Japanese engineers developed a “Sword Tip Visualization System” for the Fencing World Championships, and it makes fencing look absolutely incredible to watch.

Anna Bortsova, a Google UX Engineer, used Gemini 2.5 Pro to generate text-to-video prompts for Veo 3 and created a series of charming paper engineering stop-motion animations with paper-rustling sounds.
After experimenting in the @GeminiApp to help with prompt writing, she learned that a well crafted ‘meta-prompt’ describing the 8-second shot (textures, materials, and animation style) consistently generated high-quality Veo 3 prompts. This approach helped her dedicate her creative focus to exploring diverse video themes, while Gemini handled prompt writing.
To create this summer-inspired beach animation, Anna asked the @GeminiApp to craft prompts specifically for video LLMs like Veo 3. Then she used the generated prompts and the 'video' tool in Gemini to make several vivid and stylized videos.

That makes sense. If you’re the CEO of the alphabet you should make sure to include all 26 letters
LA friends! 🇺🇸 I’m in town this week, and for a very limited time, jet lag has made me available for morning meetings. If you’re also awake, let’s grab a coffee, or just stare into the void together. Act fast — normal service (aka not functioning before noon) resumes soon
