Cinematic outdoor close-up at golden hour of a beautiful woman in her late 20s with Mediterranean features, warm olive skin, dark brown eyes catching the low sun, soft freckles, natural slightly parted lips, loose dark wavy hair lifted by a light breeze across her right cheek. Head-and-shoulders, face filling about 60% of the frame, eyes on the upper third, body turned three-quarter toward camera-left while she looks just past the lens. Real sunset backlight from behind-right wrapping her hair in warm rim glow, soft open-shade fill on the face from the sky, long gentle shadows. Background: softly blurred coastal landscape with amber sky, distant hills and a hint of sea sparkle, empty of people and props. Shot like an arthouse film still on 85mm f/1.4, creamy bokeh, fine film grain, natural skin texture, warm gold highlights against cool blue shadow pockets, photoreal, no flash look, no plastic skin, no text.

Frequently asked questions about Nano Banana 2.1

What is Nano Banana 2.1 on Videm, and do outputs include watermarks?

Nano Banana 2.1 is an image generation and reference-guided editing model available on Videm for creating photos, illustrations, and graphic layouts. Generated images include an imperceptible SynthID digital watermark.

Can Nano Banana 2.1 generate readable text inside images?

Yes. Nano Banana 2.1 can render visible headlines, labels, and short text passages inside posters and graphic cards. Because spelling and letter spacing can still vary with prompt complexity, review the text on every generated image.

How does reference image editing work?

Nano Banana 2.1 requires signing in and using credits. Each generation costs 4 credits for 1K, 6 credits for 2K, and 9 credits for 4K. Adding reference images does not cost extra credits. The required credits are displayed before submission.

Can I continue editing an image or turn it into a video?

Each request generates one image. Afterward, click Continue Edit to load that result as a reference image for another prompt-based revision, or click Generate Video to animate it with Videm's image-to-video tool.
