Google Vids: Generate images and add text overlays
Google Vids
Demo summary
The user generates an image using Nano Banana, drags it onto the canvas, and demonstrates adding and styling text similar to Google Slides.
Step-by-step
- Open the image generation tool and select a template or reuse a prompt
- Choose the aspect ratio: 16:9, square, or portrait
- Run the generation to create the image via Nano Banana
- Drag and drop the generated image onto the canvas
- Resize the image to fit the canvas
- Select a text style from the text menu and click to add it to the canvas
- Double-click the text to edit the content
- Change the font color using the formatting options at the top
Options
