I've always loved making marble runs (especially musical ones!) So I thought it would be fun to try using Veo to take the marble on a more impossible journey, which also let me explore the physics capabilities of the model. All video and sound was generated by Veo 3.

Here are all of the prompts for every shots. Of course model results vary, which is part of the fun creative process. You can try these with Veo 3 in Gemini app ( or Flow ( Xylophone: Camera tracking shot of a light green glass marble rolling across a 1-octave xylophone with metal bars near an open window. The marble bounces out the window towards a roof with ceramic terracotta shingles. Sunny day. Roof: Ultra close-up tracking shot following a very small green solid glass marble rolling along the bumps of a roof made of curvy ceramic terracotta shingles, revealing a blurry green lawn in the distance as it bounces off the edge. Sunny day. Puddle + sidewalk: Tracking shot beginning ultra-close up on a small puddle in sidewalk, in front of grass with dandelions. A clear green glass marble bounces in, rolling through the puddle then down the sidewalk. Sunny day. Normal fast video speed. Dog paws: Tracking shot following a clear green glass marble as it rolls down a sidewalk. Bouncing as it hits bumps and cracks. Symmetrical shot with the sidewalk extending forward into the blurry distance. Tall grass and dandelions are next to the sidewalk. White dog paws are briefly seen as it runs past. Sunny day. Bicycle: Close-up tracking shot following a clear green glass marble as it approaches a crosswalk of a busy city street. A bicycle wheel rides by then the marble rolls across the crosswalk. Blurry background, busy street sounds. Sunny day. Piano: Ultra close-up tracking shot of a light green solid glass marble quickly rolling and bouncing among the keys of a warm, vintage upright piano keyboard then rolling off. Blurry stage with a drum kit in background. Amplifier: Ultra close-up tracking shot following a very small green glass marble as it rolls along the edge of a guitar amplifier. A blurry red on-light in the background flips on as it turns on, with buzz of amplifier heard. Hihat: Ultra close-up shot of a vey small green solid glass marble being rattled and bounced up and down on top of a hihat as it's being played by fast-moving blurry drumsticks (no hands) free jazz style on the hihat. Entering concert hall: Close-up tracking shot following a clear green glass marble as it rolls down a city sidewalk. It turns to enter a large symphonic concert hall, approaching two open double doors with empty red symphonic concert with lights on. Blurry background, busy street sounds. Sunny day. Arm of chair: Close-up tracking shot of a green glass marble rolls along the flat wooden arm rests between red velvet seats in a large symphonic concert hall, approaching the stage. Symmetrical shot, cinematic, arm rests forming a single path. Blurry concert hall in background with timpani drums on stage, lights on. It reaches the end of the arm rest and makes a dramatic leap towards the stage. Timpani: Ultra close-up camera tracking close-up shot following a green solid glass marble bouncing onto an enormous timpani drum, making a very low timpani sound. Big grand empty concert hall with lights on, blurred in distance. Cinematic, epic, symmetrical shot. Exiting concert hall: Close-up tracking shot of a green glass marble rolling on the floor up the carpeted aisle alongside red velvet seats in a large empty symphonic concert hall, towards the exit doors leading back to city street on a sunny day. Robin + puddle: Tracking shot following a light solid clear green glass marble as it rolling and bouncing very quickly down a quiet city sidewalk through a big puddle. An American Robin is seen in the distance but flies away as the marble approaches. Sunny day. Butterfly + wind chimes: Low angle close-up tracking shot following a clear green glass marble as it rolls quickly down a sidewalk next to grass and dandelions, approaching a blurry house with a terracota roof shingles in the distance and a front porch. It passes by a monarch butterfly that flies away. It reaches the front step, where wind chimes dangle above it.
