Welcome to #flow-creative-challenges・🎨 labs_heart google_labs

Each week, we'll post a prompt here to inspire your next Flow generation. share your gen here in this channel where you may be featured on Google Labs socials, and stay tuned for other surprises too 🙂

This week's prompt is: Consistency labs_heart

We're providing two ingredients for our very first Flow prompt: featuring our iconic Otter 🦦 and Snail 🐌 duo.

In filmmaking, consistency is key to a strong narrative. Using Flow, you can build stories with consistent characters, scenes and objects across multiple clips, giving you more creative control than ever. When a film lacks consistency, the audience notices and the story falls apart. In AI filmmaking, consistent characters are a huge challenge. Flow makes this simple with Ingredients to Video, which is now available for both Ultra AND Pro users!

The Prompt:

using Flow, select "Ingredients to Video" and upload both the provided Otter & Snail images. from there, create a video focusing on consistency, whether that be the scene or situation - the rest is up to you.

Share outputs directly in this channel (similar to our today's special channel labs_heart).

Questions? Ask in the below thread!

This isn't about celebrity photos; it's about photos of ordinary people, generated by, for example, AI, who don't exist. People have huge problems with this. Check the section where flow issues are reported; there are already dozens of comments there. Can you give me examples of countries where this is possible?

@surreal hearth So, that’s exactly what I explained to you, you know? When you took a photo of yourself and used it as a reference, it’s picking up features of your face and identifying them as a human figure. And that kind of falls under the category of commercial use, you see? That’s why I said that since you used a photo of yourself, it’s a real person. You need to make it clear that the person doesn’t exist that it’s fictional.

surreal hearth
#

The photo of me was morphed into this other person. It is not the original me. It would have no reference point for this person. This person doesn't exist in the world anywhere... not on socials... no where.

#

I didn't use any of the AI tools to create this person, just my own graphic design.

#

I've seen so many people on YouTube with a model of someone. These people have MULTIPLE videos of one character. Why is this possible for them and not for me? It doesn't make sense. My character is more original than any of those.

granite dove
# surreal hearth The photo of me was morphed into this other person. It is not the original me. I...

No, but it doesn’t work like that, you know? Human aspects, human characteristics… it doesn’t mean you have to take a photo and post it somewhere. That’s not how it works. Human features, human aspects… even if you’ve never taken a photo, a machine can still recognize that you’re human. So I think now you understand what I mean. Human aspect, human characteristics it’s not about whether you post a photo or not.

surreal hearth
#

So why do other people have multiple videos with actual prominent people that we all know??

#

Why wouldn't it give them the same error message?

granite dove
surreal hearth
#

So I can't make up a character in Veo 3, is what you're saying? Veo 3 created 2 other videos for me prior to this with no problem.

granite dove

#

It doesn't have my eyes or anything. It doesn't look like me... only has my skin tone and similar body. When I say I used my photo, I did not put my photo in somewhere and ask for it to reproduce me. I only said to myself this is how I want it to look. THERE IS NO REFERENCE ANYWHERE FOR THIS CHARACTER.

#

I think you're thinking that this character looks like me... it does not look like me.

#

Pretend I did not mention that I used myself as a model, what would be your reasoning as to why I'm getting this message?

#

I know you said forget that you used your own photo, but in order to help troubleshoot the error, can you clarify if your prompt is combined with uploading your personal photo as a reference? If the answer is yes. Then I would ask have you tried starting a fresh session and using the prompt without adding an image to reference? If you tried that and no longer received the error, then it would indicate the system is incorrectly identifying you as a prominent figure that is attempting to recreate. In fact I just generated a video with your exact prompt and no photo reference and it worked.

@surreal hearth You could take the same photo of yourself and ask Gemini to describe it to get an indication of what prominent figure you are being mistaken as

#

@surreal hearth this what I got by going to Gemini and clicking Video and then copy and pasting your prompt as you shared.

Hi, Thx for the reply! I did the same thing that you did and received something similar. The thing is I'm wanting to create an AI influencer who has a YouTube channel, which means I want to use the same persona all the time/consistently. With the previous one, I generated the persona and made a few videos with her on Veo 3, but then suddenly I started getting the error message. So I don't want to start using a persona and then after 2- 3 videos have it give the same error because Veo 3 believes it needs to prevent generating real people without consent. The point is to stick with ONE persona. Do you know what I mean? How do I know that won't happen again?

surreal hearth
#

Hey Frontier Modal! Appreciate your comment. Keep talking to me, I'm interested in your perspective. So how do other AI influencers keep generating videos without this problem - Aitana López, Imma, Lil Miquela, etc.? Many are doing it. Do you think it's the use of multiple AI tools instead of trying to stick with one (Veo 3 in my case)? Definitely want to hear your perspective on this.

golden bronze
surreal hearth
#

It's not the difference between a good or bad generation. We know if it's a bad generation, just trash it and generate again. it's more so Veo 3 is saying we will never generate this particular persona again.

#

It's not the text because I've generated 3 videos perfectly... absolutely beautiful! After that I got the error message from Veo 3 "Failed Generation :against company policy to recreate prominent people." Although it's a generated image and not a real person at all.

#

Never mind, I just found someone on Upworks who says that they've run into this error many times on different generations and they know how to fix it.

#

I mentioned it from the very beginning. Anyway, thanks for your input. I've found someone on Upworks who says they've run into this same error code on Veo 3 and know how to fix it. Enjoy your day.

This week's Flow prompt is: Time Lapse 🕐

we're focusing on new perspectives this week with Flow. 🌊 using Flow, create a story told through a time lapse. this can be the entire story or an element of the story, the choice is yours.

Some examples:

  • a time lapse of a single room could show the progression of a relationship as furniture shifts and dust collects
  • a time-lapse of a desk could show the creative process of an artist, from a blank page to a finished masterpiece.

Great question! I create a project within Flow, then start creating scenes. I’ll work to get the shots and actions I’d like to see within the film (getting a scene ‘right’ might require a few attempts with the same/similar prompts). From there I drop the ‘selects’ into an assembly (scene builder) that matches the story I’m trying to tell.

Or another way of saying, each video is still 8 seconds. The way it is longer is using the scene builder function within Flow.

Prompt: Create a cinematic short video featuring a capybara named Capi and a parrot named Paco, based on the uploaded reference photos.
The two are best friends on a tropical jungle adventure.
The video shows them trying to rescue their favorite toy — a colorful coconut — that floats down a jungle river.
Show Capi swimming powerfully through the water while Paco flies above, guiding him from the air.
Include scenes where they help each other: Paco picks up a stick to free Capi from reeds, and later Capi catches Paco when he falls from a tree.
End with a beautiful sunset scene where they rest on a small island, happy and proud.
The tone is heartwarming, humorous, and cinematic, with dynamic camera movement and vibrant jungle colors.

This time, i used a German prompt: "Der capybara und der Papagei aus den beiden hochgeladenen Fotos spielen zusammen am Ufer eines Flusses mit einem Ball. Der Ball rollt versehentlich ins Wasser und fängt an, Wegzuschwimmen. Der Papagei fliegt los und zieht den Ball aus dem Wasser, fällt aber wegen des Gewichts dann mit dem Ball selbst ins Wasser. Der capybara schwimmt zu ihnen und rettet den Papagei und den Ball zum Ufer"

# hollow rune Anyone have luck in creating different character accents? What's the secret?

Generally if you place the subject in a specific region, or city in a location with a specific known dialect of English.. you can reference, for example, to obtain an accent of a person who lives in Mumbai, India by specifying details that reinforce this desired attribute . I have found that outright saying 'speak with an indian accent' can induce failures via content restrictions, less Simpson Qwiki mart clones?

@keen gate nice. Flow is cool for certain things but it's too censored for my kind of cinematic story telling. It's also very expensive compared to the Chinese models that now do the same and the physics are bad. Lastly they charge you for pro and still leave a watermark on your creations. I use it for a few scenes tho since I have pro and alot of credits on there.

The error message you received, "We do not allow the import of images of minors at this time," indicates that Flow (the platform you're using for Image to Video, likely a reference to a specific AI tool like Gen-2 by Runway or similar) has a very conservative and automated policy regarding images of children.

AI Detection: Even if the image is a film still and perfectly "safe" or "fine" by your standards, the underlying AI safety model in Flow is designed to be extremely cautious and likely flags any recognizable image of a child. This is a common practice to comply with Child Safety and Protection regulations and internal ethical guidelines, preventing misuse.

Context doesn't matter: The AI often doesn't consider the context (e.g., "It's a film image," "It's harmless"). It just detects the presence of a face belonging to someone below a certain age threshold. The "blank stare" might even be interpreted in a way that triggers an alert within their safety system.

  3. Target Audience & Impact: The main target audience is kids ages 2–4 (and their parents/guardians). During the video, I want them to be engaged and absorb the letters easily. After watching, the goal is simple: that they recognize and remember alphabets and associate them with animal names.

I did a whole video where I needed a lot of this. Variants of this worked:
Locked frame. Static camera. The character gives a controlled, weary, internalized performance. He listens to the hum of machinery with suspicion. Eyes drift downward as if following a vibration beneath the deck. A slow, subtle head tilt. Jaw tightens once. No talking. No gestures. Keep movement minimal and restrained. Match the provided image exactly.

I think controlled, internalized, restrained, minimal are probably what do it.

Hey everyone! I’m trying to generate an animated scene in Veo / Whisk / Nano Banana with a flat, front-facing 16:9 screen so I can drop a live-action video into it later.

My issue: No matter how clearly I prompt it (“perfectly flat,” “no tilt,” “no perspective,” “front-facing”), the model keeps generating a screen that is angled, tilted, or in perspective instead of straight-on.

Has anyone found a reliable prompt pattern or technique that forces these models to render a perfectly rectangular, camera-facing screen—like a TV or monitor seen directly from the front?

Would love any advice or example prompts that have worked for you! 🙏

An orthographic projection view of a 16:9 aspect ratio display screen. The screen is perfectly rectangular and centered in the frame. Zero perspective distortion, purely 2D flat geometry. Architectural front elevation view. The camera plane is perfectly parallel to the screen surface. A minimalist, glowing placeholder screen against a neutral background. Symmetrical composition.

# keen gate Your welcome always

Thank you--the screen was being placed in an "animated room"--it kept trying to place the screen on the wall which tilited it, but when I added this to your prompt it worked: "Place the screen directly to the right of the character, on the exact same depth plane and foreground level as the character. They must appear side-by-side, aligned horizontally, both at the same distance from the camera, just like the example composition on the right-hand reference. The screen should rest on a short stand or two small caster legs placed on the floor, similar to a mobile smart board"

The Higgsfield one went down at the same time, but it's cheaper. It apears to be some kind of streamlined version of Topaz, but for stuff that just needs simple upscaling, it worked for me in the past, before this 'Service disruption'. If you want to upscale and smooth things out a bit (creative upscaling), then 16 credits per clip (for 1080p or 24) is still pretty reasonable.

Urban Storyline Concept: From Streets to Sky

Scene 1 – The Hustle (2–3 sec)
• City backdrop: graffiti walls, subway trains rolling by, sneakers dangling on power lines.
• A young person sitting on the stoop with friends, looking tired of the day’s grind.
• They pull out a pack of Flying Papers.

Scene 2 – The Spark (3–4 sec)
• They roll up smoothly, flick the lighter → the flame ignites, and suddenly the smoke starts forming wings.
• The paper itself starts glowing, then literally lifts off their hands like a jet.

Scene 3 – The Flight (5–6 sec)
• The character grabs the paper as it transforms into a mini plane made of smoke + paper.
• They hop on, soaring over the city.
• Cutaway shots: flying past neon-lit billboards, rooftops, basketball courts, murals.
• A quick shot of jealous people on the block looking up like: 👀🔥

Scene 4 – The Message (2–3 sec)
• They land back on the stoop, smooth and calm.
• Pack of Flying Papers glows in their hand.
• Tagline pops up on-screen:

✨ “Flying Papers – Take Your Vibe Higher” ✨

This keeps it urban, aspirational, and visually trippy, while staying short (15–20 seconds).

A diverse, vivid, and global community, bonded by their interest in cannabis. Whatever’s your reason for lighting up, wherever you're gonna roll, Flying Papers is your ticket to get there.

The workflow for both videos followed the same process 🙂

First, I generated storyboard frames.

These frames were then used as inputs in the Ingredients to Video pipeline to produce the final outputs

Cup of coffee pouring out from a mug turns into liquid velvet. I started with nano banana to prompt, but the image was already mid-pour, so I then just inputted the full video prompt into flow, negating the start image. Sometimes image prompts for start images are not as effective for me.

Decided to try one clip here using a prop and video prompt. Nanobanana 2 for the image ref, prompt for the video below [Fast - Low Priority]:

A close orbiting shot of the shattered antique lantern.

A female ballerina of azure flame composed entirely of dancing blue fire executes her slow, precise dance inside the fractured glass of the lantern.
The erratic, sputtering blue light from her form casts fluttering, shifting shadow patterns onto the surrounding heavy dust motes.
The flame itself is volatile, but its human form remains controlled and constrained by the prop.

Music: Haunting wind up music box ballet tune.

Can someone please tell me why the "Extend" feature from Flow is so broken? The one issue I keep running into is with the Extend feature. Whenever I extend a scene, it never feels like a true continuation — there's always a visible cut, and the second clip rarely matches the tone, or feel of the first. For a tool this powerful, it's a real limitation.
I'm not sure if it's something in my workflow or if there's a better method I'm missing. Have you or anyone else in the group found a reliable way around this?
Would love to hear what's working for people. Thanks!

very interesting result on this. You got a good performance and great lyrical timing in this. Text only prompting definitely yeilds unexpectedly good results, often surprisingly good, but any hope of location and character consistency goes out the window making it a bit of a fever dream and supremely hard to wrestle into a narrative. But a very good result.

Hi, I’m still getting this error in Flow:

“Failed. We noticed some unusual activity. Please visit the Help Center for more information.”

This has been happening repeatedly, even after waiting and retrying. Sometimes reopening the page lets me generate once, but the next generation fails again with the same message.

This issue is seriously affecting normal use. I’ve also seen other users reporting the same problem, so it does not seem to be an isolated case.

Is the team aware of this issue? Has anyone found a reliable solution?

#

Is anyone else seriously frustrated with Flow right now?

For days, I keep getting:

“Failed. We noticed some unusual activity. Please visit the Help Center for more information.”

At this point, it doesn’t even feel like a user-side issue anymore.
People in this community have already reported:

  • no VPN, still getting it
  • waited hours or even a full day, still getting it
  • reopened the page, maybe one generation works, then it fails again
  • different accounts, different prompts, same result

So what exactly is triggering this?
Because right now it feels like normal use of Flow is being treated as “unusual activity.”

This is not just annoying — it makes the product unreliable and basically unusable for actual creative work.

How many of you are still getting this error right now?
And has anyone found a real fix that works consistently?

@still jetty so, a very shortened and "raw" version but just for this explanation. As always start with your initial reference image, then create your final or stepped images. The prompt, which you can be quite flexible with needs only be something like "Create a hyper-lapse of the room, reference image 1, is decorated by a single person. The result will be reference image 2" (I really did simplify it, but you get the picture). What you see here is a single generation - I've not tweaked it at all and I think it did ok. To do better you'd prompt in the stages of decoration - aka paint walls, install flooring, lighting, furnishings, finish

Hun, I guess we can remix stuff on flow! As a Sora refugee, this is very cool, but the process is not quite as friendly as Sora. In fact, I had to bang my head a bit to get this done. On the one hand, it was interesting and got me to try some new things in Flow, but it also exposed some pain points.

If I can ask, why do we have insert, remove and camera as separate functions? I somewhat understand the camera one because then you don't have to teach a new user all the Hollywood jargon for camera movement (sure, we can type in "quarter circle orbital tracking shot with the image subject as the central focus", but having a big button with a picture of a camera doing that probably increases accessibility). But the other two? Why just combine them into "Change", with the option of using the marquee select tool?

This "remix" topic exposes why this would be ideal rather nicely actually. What I want to do with the shared video is not really remove or insert, I want to replace. I tried the simple path of taking the video of the underwater dog here and using "insert" with a prompt asking it to re-imagine the background as outer-space and replace the diver with an astronaut, coral reef with Earth, etc, but that failed horribly. What did work here was taking the input ingredients and then remixing them to look like what I wanted, then making the video from that. But then I have to write a new prompt for the video - sure, I can reuse the one that was shared with the video, but now it's describing a new scene in space.

I have no proof of this, but I'm 95% sure that Sora took the user's remix input prompt, considered it against the previous prompts in the chain, did some LLM thinking, and internally used that generated script input to actually make the videos.
