Thanksgiving pie pre-orders: three 8-second Omni clips for $3.00

Three clips of 8 seconds at 720p cost $3.00 on Sume. Gemini Omni Flash 1.1 lists $0.10 per second at 720p, Sume bills list times 1.25, and each 8-second job is $1.00. Thanksgiving is Thursday November 26, 2026, so a pre-order window of a week gives you time to post one clip per product and a reminder.

The clips animate your own photos. Use a photo of the real pie as the first frame, so that customers get what the clip shows.

Three clips, three jobs

Each clip does one thing for a pre-order post. Prompts describe motion and light, not new ingredients.

Submit the first-frame image jobs

Omni accepts 3 to 10 seconds, with 16:9 or 9:16, and its audio is native and always on, so ask for a quiet kitchen sound rather than music. The first frame goes in frame_images with frame_type first_frame.

What to add yourself

Add the pre-order deadline, price and pickup time as captions, with Video captions cues. The captions carry the facts that must be right. Then post one clip a day from the Monday before.

If a clip shows a different decoration, a different crust or extra toppings, re-roll it for another $1.00 or choose another take. Never post a pie that differs from what you bake.

• Budget $6.00 for three clips and three re-rolls.
• Keep the original photos for the order page.
• Mention allergens in the caption, not in the clip.
