Gemini Omni Image-to-Video Pricing: 36 to 120 Credits Per Clip

The exact credit cost of every Gemini Omni Image-to-Video duration and resolution on VdoBloom, why 1080p is free over 720p, and when the flat 4K surcharge is worth paying.

Gemini Omni Image-to-Video costs 36 to 120 credits per clip on VdoBloom β€” $1.80 to $6.00 at the Lite rate of $0.05 per credit β€” with price set by duration and by one thing only on the quality side: whether you choose 4K. A 4-second clip is 36 credits, 6 seconds is 48, 8 seconds is 60 and 10 seconds is 72, and those numbers are identical at 720p and 1080p. Selecting 4K adds a flat 48 credits at every length.

The full price table

Gemini Omni Image-to-Video animates a single still into 4, 6, 8 or 10 seconds of motion, at 720p, 1080p or 4K, in 16:9 or 9:16. Every combination and its exact credit cost is below, with dollar figures at the Lite reference rate of $0.05 per credit.

8 seconds60 credits$3.00108 credits$5.40
10 seconds72 credits$3.60120 credits$6.00

Two facts in that table are worth more than the rest.

1080p is a free upgrade over 720p

The credit table carries separate keys for 720p and 1080p at every duration, and at every duration they hold the same number. Rendering a 10-second clip at 1080p costs 72 credits; rendering the same clip at 720p also costs 72 credits. There is no drafting saving in dropping to 720p on this model, so unless you specifically want the softer look or a smaller file, 1080p is the correct default for every run.

The real saving lever is duration. Drafting at 4 seconds and 1080p costs 36 credits against 72 for the full 10 seconds β€” half price to confirm that the motion, the framing and the subject hold up before you commit.

4K is a flat 48-credit surcharge, not a multiplier

Compare the two halves of the table and the 4K premium is exactly 48 credits ($2.40) at 4, 6, 8 and 10 seconds. That makes 4K proportionally cheapest on long clips. Per second of finished footage:

ClipCreditsCredits per secondDollars per second at $0.05/credit
4s at 1080p369.0$0.45
10s at 1080p727.2$0.36
4s at 4K8421.0$1.05
10s at 4K12012.0$0.60

A 4-second 4K clip is the single worst value on the model at 21 credits per second. If you need 4K, need the full 10 seconds β€” and if you only need 4 seconds, 1080p at 36 credits is the sensible buy.

What that costs on each plan

Pro annual, $49/month2,000$0.02452716

Be clear about the free tier: 10 signup credits do not cover a Gemini Omni clip. They are enough for several image generations, which is a reasonable way to build the still you will later animate, but the cheapest clip here is 36 credits. On the Pro annual tier the effective price drops hard β€” a 10-second 1080p render works out around $1.76 and a 10-second 4K render around $2.94.

The sibling variants and what they cost

Three related models share this pricing family, and picking the wrong one wastes credits.

  • Gemini Omni Text-to-Video uses the identical table β€” 36/48/60/72 credits, 84/96/108/120 at 4K. If you do not have a still to start from, nothing changes financially.
  • Omni Flash 1.1 adds a 360p option, but it is priced from the same keys: 360p costs the same 36/48/60/72 credits as 720p and 1080p. Choosing 360p saves you nothing, so treat it as a delivery choice rather than a budget one.
  • Gemini Omni Video-to-Video is priced flat by resolution with no duration component at all β€” 96 credits at 720p, 96 at 1080p and 143 at 4K. It is the outlier in the family and the only variant where 4K costs more than a fixed 48-credit step.

How this sits against other image-to-video models

At 72 credits for 10 seconds of 1080p, Gemini Omni is mid-market on VdoBloom rather than cheap or premium. Wan 2.7 image-to-video is 95 credits for 10 seconds at 1080p; Veo 3 Fast is 40 credits and Veo 3 Quality 160. The distinguishing feature you are paying for is the 4K ceiling, which most image-to-video models in the catalogue simply do not offer. If 4K is not part of the deliverable, cheaper models cover the same job β€” the model grid at the image-to-video tab shows the live credit cost for each one before you spend anything.

Budget rules that actually save credits

  1. Draft at 4 seconds, 1080p, 36 credits. Confirm the motion reads correctly before paying for length.
  2. Never render 720p on this model. It costs the same as 1080p.
  3. Buy 4K only at 8 or 10 seconds, where the flat 48-credit surcharge is spread furthest.
  4. Fix the source still first. This model animates outward from the frame you supply, so a weak still costs you a full re-render rather than a cheap retry.

One compliance note that has nothing to do with price: if the photo you animate shows a real person, you must have that person’s consent before generating. Gemini Omni also carries VdoBloom’s strictest content label, so explicit material and sensitive real-person prompts are refused at the provider level β€” a refused generation is a wasted queue slot you would rather avoid.

Frequently asked questions

How much is one Gemini Omni image-to-video clip?

Between 36 credits (4 seconds, 720p or 1080p) and 120 credits (10 seconds, 4K). At the Lite rate of $0.05 per credit that is $1.80 to $6.00 per clip.

Is 1080p more expensive than 720p?

No. The credit table charges the same amount for 720p and 1080p at all four durations, so 1080p is effectively free.

Can I make a clip with the 10 free signup credits?

Not on this model β€” the cheapest clip is 36 credits. Free credits do cover image generations, which is a useful way to prepare the still you intend to animate.

How much does 4K add?

A flat 48 credits ($2.40) at any duration: 84 credits for 4 seconds, 96 for 6, 108 for 8 and 120 for 10.

What durations and aspect ratios are available?

Durations are 4, 6, 8 and 10 seconds. Aspect ratios are 16:9 and 9:16 only β€” there is no 1:1 or 4:3 option, so square output means choosing a different model.

Does the video-to-video variant use the same prices?

No. Video-to-video is flat-rated by resolution with no duration component: 96 credits at 720p, 96 at 1080p and 143 at 4K.
