Release and use

Google introduced Flow on 20 May 2025, combining Veo, Imagen and Gemini in a filmmaking interface. Users can supply assets or generate elements such as characters and objects before using them in shots and scenes. The announcement demonstrated camera control, scene organisation and asset management. These interface functions and the underlying model versions are related but distinct historical objects.

Change in creative practice

The historical issue is continuity as work to be managed, rather than a problem automatically solved by a single generation. Characters, objects and visual rules pass between shots, while creators arrange their relations. Generative practice thereby connects to established knowledge of storyboards, staging and editing.
