A video engine organized around shots, motion, and continuity.

Seedance is not a chat model. Its value appears when a creative brief becomes a controlled moving sequence inside the dedicated Combo.

  • Prioritizes finished output

    Full model

    Use when motion, frame control, and audio belong in the final deliverable.

  • Prioritizes iteration

    Fast model

    Use for drafts, shot exploration, and storyboard clips.

  • Works from frames and briefs

    Control

    Start from text, an image, or defined first and last frames.

  • Dedicated Combo

    Product surface

    The engines do not appear in the main chat dropdown.

Separate the 2.5 listing from recorded 2.0 engines.

Seedance entries distinguish recorded 2.0 video Combo routes from the newer 2.5 pricing listing. Compare the engine identifier and stated status for each version, then verify the actual generation workflow and inputs before assuming the same access path applies.

Use Cases for Seedance Models

Text concepts, animated key visuals, and storyboard drafts begin with different source material. Compare shot constraints, motion consistency, and selection criteria before using the corresponding Seedance workflow to generate and review a candidate clip.

Text-to-video concept

A text-to-video concept needs a subject, scene, camera motion, duration, and audio intention. Translate that brief into shot constraints through the appropriate video workflow, then review both picture and sound. Use shot-specific notes to decide what should change in the next concept clip.

Animate a key visual

Animating a key visual starts with the source image, the elements that must remain intact, and the intended motion. Review generated movement against subject and scene consistency, keeping the result connected to its source. That comparison helps separate useful motion from changes that undermine the original visual.

Storyboard iteration

Storyboard exploration can compare candidate clips before committing to final production. Set a draft budget and review criteria, then examine framing and motion across alternatives. Record selection reasons and constraints for the next round so each revision follows a creative decision rather than another unbounded generation attempt.

Include sound in the video brief

When the intended clip includes audio, define the sound or speech intention alongside the scene, timing, and motion. Check the selected engine and workflow for the required support before generation. Review the resulting picture and audio together, recording mismatches for the next iteration rather than judging the clip from a still frame or assuming every listed version offers the same route.

Video controls presented as a production workflow.

Text briefs, source images, frame constraints, and audio intent lead to different video-generation checks. Explore the recorded Seedance Combo capabilities with those inputs in mind, and keep the selected engine's access conditions attached to the production task.

Text-to-video

Turns a shot description into a generated moving sequence.

Image-to-video

Uses a source image as the visual basis for motion.

First and last frame control

Defines the visual start and end points of the generated shot.

Synchronized audio

Supports video generation where sound belongs to the resulting sequence.

Choose the engine by the stage of production.

Choose the full Seedance engine when

  • The clip is intended as a finished or near-finished deliverable.
  • Frame control and synchronized audio matter.
  • You already know the shot direction you want.

Choose Fast or another route when

  • You are exploring several storyboard directions.
  • Speed matters more than final polish in the current round.
  • The deliverable is a still image; use the drawing Combo instead.

Brief, generate, then review the moving result.

Video production needs a brief that constrains more than a single frame. Prepare the intended scene and motion, use the appropriate generation route, and inspect the resulting moving image and audio before deciding which revisions are needed for delivery.

  1. Define the shot

    Set subject, motion, framing, duration, frames, and audio needs.

  2. Choose quality or speed

    Use the full model for final work or Fast for early drafts.

  3. Review continuity

    Check motion, frames, audio, and brand fit before delivery.

Seedance FAQ

What is Seedance 2.0?
Seedance 2.0 is ByteDance's AI video-generation engine for text-to-video, image-to-video, frame-controlled generation, and synchronized audio.
What does the Fast model change?
It prioritizes speed for video drafts and storyboard clips, while the full engine is the better choice for finished or near-finished output.
What inputs can Seedance use?
The live Combo supports text-to-video, image-to-video, and generation controlled by first and last frames.
Can Seedance generate synchronized audio?
Yes. Synchronized audio is part of the confirmed Seedance 2.0 workflow in the built-in Combo.
What are the Seedance 2.0 model IDs?
The full model ID is doubao-seedance-2-0-260128; the faster variant is doubao-seedance-2-0-fast-260128.
What should a video brief specify before generating a clip?
Describe the subject, camera movement, action, reference material, and audio intent separately. Check continuity, unwanted text or objects, and audio alignment in the result before treating the clip as ready for editing or publication.
Can I use a Seedance 2.0 ID to request Seedance 2.5?
Do not assume so. Floatboat’s pricing page lists 2.5, while the existing Combo records identify 2.0 and 2.0 Fast. Verify the actual engine and supported inputs before changing a production request.
