  12. 12

    Fast and Turbo Speed Tiers

    Seedance 2.5 adds a Turbo tier and Seedance 2.0 offers Fast, Turbo and Fast Turbo, so you can trade a little resolution for quicker, cheaper renders while you are still iterating.

How to Generate Text-to-Video with Seedance

Pick a generation, write your prompt, and render the clip without leaving this page

  1. 01

    Pick Your Seedance Generation

    Seedance 2.5 is the default here and the best place to start: one pass, a native 30-second clip, output up to 4K. Choose Seedance 2.0 instead when you want phoneme-level lip sync across 8+ languages, or scenes driven by a soundtrack you upload. Both generations have a Turbo tier, and 2.0 adds Fast and Fast Turbo for cheaper drafts.

  2. 02

    Write the Prompt and Attach References

    Describe the subject, the action, the camera move and the light you want. Reference files handle the rest: images to fix a look, video to steer motion, audio to set the rhythm. Seedance 2.5 takes up to 50 of them at once, Seedance 2.0 up to 12. Leave the audio switch on and the soundtrack is generated along with the picture.

  3. 03

    Set Duration and Resolution, Then Generate

    Pick an aspect ratio from 21:9 down to 9:16, a length (4 to 30 seconds on 2.5; 5, 10 or 15 on 2.0) and a resolution between 480p and 4K. Generate, watch it back, then sharpen the prompt or lock the seed and run it again. Drafting at 480p and re-rendering only the keeper at full resolution is the cheapest way to iterate.

How to Generate Image-to-Video with Seedance

Bring a still frame to life with either Seedance generation, right on this page

  1. 01

    Upload Your Starting Frame

    Drop in the still you want animated: a portrait, a product shot, a landscape, anything with room to move. Both generations also take an optional last frame, so you can set where the shot should land and let the model fill in everything between.

  2. 02

    Choose a Generation and Describe the Motion

    Seedance 2.5 is the default: a native 30-second take in a single pass, up to 4K, with character identity and the first frame held steady throughout. Pick Seedance 2.0 for its lip sync across 8+ languages, or its Fast and Fast Turbo tiers when you want cheap drafts. Then write what should happen, from how the subject moves to where the camera goes and how the light shifts.

  3. 03

    Set Duration and Resolution, Then Generate

    Length runs 4 to 30 seconds on Seedance 2.5 and 5, 10 or 15 on Seedance 2.0, at resolutions from 480p up to 4K. On 2.5 the output follows the aspect ratio of your input image, so the framing carries over untouched. Generate, review the motion, then rephrase the prompt or swap the starting frame until the movement feels right.
