Guide: Convert Your Gemini Nano Banana 3D Figurines into Videos, Free of Charge, Using Grok

The Gemini Nano Banana AI image model by Google has achieved widespread popularity, prompting social media users to generate realistic 3D figurines. The app has been so popular it triggers warnings about too many requests. This model lets users create 3D figurines for free by uploading photos of objects, people, or pets. A notable trend is the transformation of these 3D images into videos, with Grok offering a free solution. To animate the 3D models with Grok, you can open the app using your smartphone, web browser, or X (formerly Twitter). Select the “Imagine” section in the left-side menu. Then, upload your Nano Banana-generated 3D model, and click or tap on “Make Video.” The video will appear quickly with a background sound. If you’re not happy with the result, you can ask Grok to redo it. When you are satisfied, download it and share it. A recommended prompt is: “Keep the figurine mostly static with subtle life touches—blinking, slight breathing, minimal hand movement. Animate the camera around the figurine in smooth cinematic motion: gentle pans, zoom-ins, rotations, and depth-of-field shifts. Place the figurine in a realistic, well-lit room with soft shadows and reflections. Ensure lighting and perspective feel natural, emphasizing the 3D form.”
