Google’s Gemini Nano Banana has gone viral in days, and in some countries, in some hours. The reason is that it has been generating lifelike 3D models and creative edits from simple prompts for anyone. And this is not it, as the real magic happens when you animate these models into videos. While most of the AI video tools like OpenAI Sora and Google Veo 3 are behind a paywall, free alternatives like Grok AI and Kling AI will let you bring your Nano Banana creations to life by following simple steps.
Here’s a step-by-step guide for Indian users to turn 3D models into stunning videos at no cost.
What is Gemini Nano Banana?
For those who are not aware, Google’s Gemini Nano Banana model has quickly become popular because of its ability to transform still photos/images into high-quality 3D figures, holographs or fashion try-on visuals.
By using the natural language prompts, it will maintain consistency and realism, making it ideal for collectables, creative projects, and even personalised figurines.
Why turn 3D models into videos?
While static 3D images look impressive, videos add life-like animation, cinematic camera movements, and even sound effects. This makes them ideal for content creators, social media influencers, and hobbyists looking to showcase their Nano Banana creations more dynamically.
