Canonical page: https://clipstudio.ai/ai-video-models/veo-3-1-fast

## Answer

Veo 3.1 Fast keeps Veo’s directed-shot language—text, a start image, first and last frames, or up to three references—at a lower per-second rate than Veo 3.1. Use it when you want Veo motion and optional audio without the premium SKU’s cost.

## Best for

Faster Veo drafts, campaign tests, and 720p–4K shots where turnaround and cost matter as much as look.

## Specs

- Duration: 4, 6, or 8 seconds
- Resolution: 720p, 1080p, or 4K
- Aspect ratio: 16:9 or 9:16
- Audio: Optional generated audio
- Input support: Text prompt, Animate image, First → last, Up to 3 reference images

## Strengths

- Same Veo 3.1 workflows
- Lower per-second cost
- Optional generated audio


## Considerations

- Supports 16:9 and 9:16
- Reference mode uses an 8-second shot


## Prompt tip

Describe the subject, action, camera move, lighting, and sound as separate beats in one concise shot direction.

## Prompts that work

- A campaign test: matte-black bottle on a rotating turntable, slow orbit, studio softbox, quiet motor hum.
- Vertical hook: a founder looks up from a laptop as city lights bloom behind glass; 9:16, optional room tone.
- First frame a sketch of a storefront, last frame the finished facade at golden hour; locked camera, birds and distant traffic.
- Three-reference look: jacket, location still, and lighting cue combined into one 8-second walk-through.
