YouTube Shorts gets a major update! The editor of Downcodes learned that YouTube integrated Google DeepMind's Veo video generation model and launched the Dream Screen function, which supports AI video background generation and can output up to 1080p high-definition video. This feature greatly simplifies the short video creation process and provides creators with unprecedented creative freedom and convenience.
YouTube brings a major update to its Shorts feature this Thursday. By integrating Google DeepMind's Veo video generation model, the Dream Screen function now supports AI video background generation and can output 1080p high-definition videos, making creators' short video creations even more powerful.
Application of this technology is extremely simple and intuitive. Creators only need to open the Shorts camera, click the green screen icon, select the Dream Screen function, and enter the desired scene description, such as a candy world or an enchanted forest with a stream running through it. After selecting an animation style, the system will generate multiple video backgrounds to choose from, and creators can record video content in front of these dynamic backgrounds.
This feature opens up endless possibilities for creators: whether it’s placing yourself in a scene from a favorite novel or creating a unique animated opening for a short video, it’s all possible. YouTube also revealed that it will launch a function to generate 6-second independent video clips in the future to further enrich creation options.
It is worth noting that this innovative feature gives YouTube a technical advantage in the field of short videos. Currently, TikTok, the leading platform in the short video market, only supports AI static background image generation, and has not yet launched a video background generation function.
Currently, this new feature has been launched in the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. This important update not only demonstrates YouTube’s technical strength in AI applications, but also brings richer creative possibilities to creators around the world.
The launch of the Dream Screen function marks an important step for YouTube in the field of AI-assisted video creation, and also provides more possibilities for short video content creation in the future. We look forward to more similar innovative features appearing in the future to further enrich the short video creation ecosystem.
