How to Use Nano Banana 2 for Image Editing

Nano Banana 2 edits images from plain-language instructions - no masks, no layers. This guide shows how to use Nano Banana 2 for natural-language image editing on forvideo.ai.

Step 1 - Upload your image
Start with a clear source image. Higher-resolution inputs give cleaner edits.
Step 2 - Describe the change
Write the edit as a direct instruction:
Change the sky to a dramatic sunset and make the jacket red.
Name the object and the exact change. One or two edits per pass is more reliable than a long list.
Step 3 - Preserve what matters
Add "keep the face and pose unchanged" to protect identity. Nano Banana 2 holds subjects well but explicit instructions help.
Step 4 - Iterate
Stack edits across passes: change the background first, then adjust wardrobe, then lighting. Each pass builds on the last.
Common uses
- Product recolors and background swaps.
- Portrait retouching without masks.
- Fast concept variations.
