Google has introduced a new app called Google Vids for making videos. It’s a special tool for people who use Google Workspace. This app uses Google’s technology called Gemini to help users make videos that share information.
Right now, Google is letting some users of Google Workspace Labs try out Google Vids. They plan to let more people try it later. This app takes advantage of the technology behind Google’s other tools like Docs, Sheets, and Slides. However, Google Vids is different because you can either make a video plan yourself with your pictures and videos, or you can tell the app what you want, and it will make a plan for you. This makes it easier and quicker to make videos that explain things well.
With Google Vids, you can upload your own pictures and videos to a video plan, called a storyboard. You can also use stock videos, pictures, and music the app offers. Plus, it can help you write or create a narration script. The app looks a lot like Google Slides and is easy to use. Google made a video to show how it works.
Google Vids is mainly for work-related videos. It’s not really for making videos for your personal YouTube channel. It’s good for things like teaching sales teams, helping new employees learn about their job, reaching out to sellers, and sharing news about projects. You can use different styles and templates. And, like other Google Workspace tools, you can work with your team on videos, with others able to add their ideas or feedback.
This app is part of Google’s paid offerings for businesses and workplaces. According to The Verge, you can’t connect it directly to YouTube right now, and it only lets you make videos that are shorter than three minutes. But, Google might add more features later.
Google Vids is a lot like Clipchamp, a video-making tool from Microsoft. Clipchamp is free for both personal and business use. It also has technology to help put together short videos quickly by understanding what’s in your videos. It can also turn written words into spoken words.
Let me know in the comment sections- what do you think about this?
