Synopsis
The Heist is an AI-generated short film built entirely with Google’s Veo 2 text-to-video technology. Crafted through thousands of iterations, the film captures the raw, gritty energy of 1980s New York City with striking visual consistency. Every frame comes straight from Veo 2—no additional VFX, cleanup, or color correction—preserving the original creative intent in pure generative form. Released in December 2024, The Heist quickly went viral, sparking global conversations about the future of AI filmmaking.
