"""Example: Using the GeminiTools Toolkit for Video Generation

An Agent using the Gemini video generation tool.

Video generation only works with Vertex AI.
Make sure you have set the GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT and GOOGLE_CLOUD_LOCATION environment variables.

Example prompts to try:
- "Generate a 5-second video of a kitten playing a piano"
- "Create a short looping animation of a neon city skyline at dusk"

Run `uv pip install google-genai agno` to install the necessary dependencies.
