In the morning, a teenager cycles through an old European city district. The shot cuts from the bicycle wheels on cobblestone streets to a front-facing perspective of him riding, and finally ends with him pedaling into a sunlit square.

Creating a video with Seedance 2.5 is simple. Write a text prompt, add reference images when needed, and generate your video. You can describe the subject, motion, camera movement, style, and scene to guide the result.
Describe the scene, action, visual style, camera movement, and mood you want.
Use images, frames, or notes as multimodal references to keep characters, products, and visual styles consistent.
Generate your video, review the result, and adjust your prompt or references until it matches your idea.
Tell Longer Stories in One Take
Generate up to 30 seconds of continuous video in a single shot, including scene changes, spatial transitions, and shifts in pacing. You can also extend a sequence when your story needs more time.
Keep Characters and Styles Consistent
Use up to 50 images, frames, and notes as references to guide your generation. This makes it easier to maintain the same characters, visual style, and overall continuity throughout a video.
Change One Detail Without Starting Over
Make targeted edits to specific parts of a video while keeping the rest of the scene consistent. It can be useful for fixing details, adapting an ad for different markets, or making variations without regenerating everything.
Choose the Resolution for Your Project
Create videos at 480p, 720p, or 1080p depending on your needs. Use a lower resolution for quick drafts and testing, or switch to 1080p when you need a sharper final video.
