Project: Astra

In this project we used the Gemini Omni Flash 1.1 model through the Fal.ai provider. Here we show the total cost of generating the videos and what it would have cost on a platform like Magnific.

The "Astra" project video is a parody of the videos made by AI enthusiasts, in which it seems that AI can do anything you ask of it, even build a house.

The Magnific cost is calculated from the price of a 5-second video (800 credits at 720p, 275 credits at 360p), assuming the cost scales linearly with duration.
