Washington: Google announced Friday the rollout of its new Image-to-Video feature powered by its AI assistant Gemini across the Middle East and North Africa.

The tool allows users to transform their favorite photos into animated 8-second video clips enhanced with synchronized visual and audio effects.

Available to subscribers of the Google AI Ultra and Pro plans, the feature aims to expand access to creative AI tools for content creators and artists in the region.

Users can activate the function by selecting Videos from the tools panel, uploading a static image, adding a text prompt describing the scene, and specifying any desired audio cues.

Gemini then generates a fully animated clip, enabling creators to bring everyday objects, artistic sketches, or natural scenery to life.
