If you thought AI video creation was just for slick corporate explainers, think again. Veo 3, Google’s AI video generator, is bringing wild ideas to life and capturing people’s attention everywhere. From surreal ASMR clips to philosophical sketches, Veo 3 is proving that when you give audiences a powerful tool, they’ll dream up scenarios you’d never imagine. For more on how AI is reshaping storytelling, read through our blog Keeping Pace with Change: Storytelling in the Age of AI.
Now we’ve put Google Veo 3 to the test with three videos made right here at Crowd. Each one shows how handing AI the director’s chair can lead to genuinely unexpected results.
Cyborg café culture
Picture this: it’s 2025 and you’re watching a cyborg influencer who looks straight out of Alita, with just a touch of circuitry around her left eye, casually sipping from a “Cyfé” coffee cup while pitching the first-ever coffee for cyborgs. It’s that perfect mash-up of sci-fi cool and everyday laugh-out-loud charm, brought to life effortlessly with Veo 3’s magic.
NPC vox pop in Times Square
We sent Veo 3 right into the buzz of Times Square and asked, “What does it feel like to be an NPC?” Trust us, you’ve got to see her reaction. By dropping this surreal idea into a real-world moment, Veo 3 captured genuine surprise and set social feeds alight almost instantly.
Just Sneakers à la Wes Anderson
Finally, we created a short ad for “Just Sneakers” in a Wes Anderson style. Every frame is perfectly symmetrical, bathed in pastel pinks and mint greens, with static camera moves revealing each trainer like a cherished artefact. It’s minimal, it’s precise and it has that playful vintage charm. Veo 3’s control over composition and colour made it dead easy to nail that director-for-the-day aesthetic.
Each of our three experiments shows how Veo 3 can:
- Elevate absurdity with flawless visuals.
- Blend fiction and reality, creating share-worthy moments that feel both real and uncanny.
- Embody brand style, from futuristic humour to precise, retro-chic ads.
Sure, AI can help call the shots, but only your human touch gives each scene its heart. Keep dreaming big, keep experimenting, and watch how these tools amplify your creativity.
