Seedance 2.0 is ByteDance's flagship next-generation multimodal AI video model. It accepts text, images, video clips, and audio as creative input — outperforming Sora 2 and Veo 3 in structural control and cinematic precision. Built for creators, marketers, and studios who need professional-grade output without a render farm.
Five capabilities that make Seedance 2.0 the most controllable AI video model on the market.
Combine text, image, video, and audio as creative anchors. Upload a static character image plus a separate motion-reference clip — Seedance 2.0 applies the motion while preserving every visual detail of your subject.
Interpret structured shooting scripts and storyboard images directly. Go from idea to cinematic sequence without losing creative intent.
Accurate weight shifts, momentum, surface friction, and natural body dynamics. Smoother, more lifelike motion than any prior generation.
Maintains character, product, and style details across every frame — essential for branded content and recurring characters.
Builds logical scene progression and natural transitions inside a single generation. Story-driven content with no manual editing.
From a blank canvas to a finished clip in three steps.
Type a prompt, upload a reference image, drop in a video clip, or paste a storyboard. Seedance 2.0 accepts all four — combine them freely.
Describe subject, lighting, camera movement, and aesthetic. The more structured your prompt, the more precise the result.
Pick aspect ratio (16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 21:9, and more), duration, and resolution. Generate, refine, run the next round side-by-side.
Best structure: subject + action + camera + scene + style. Example: "A woman in sunglasses + turns and smiles + slow push-in + neon rainy street + cinematic." Seedance responds well to explicit camera terms — push, pull, pan, dolly, crane. Include lighting cues (golden hour, neon glow, low-key) and mood words (cinematic, documentary, dreamlike) for tighter style control.
From a single line of text to a finished cinematic clip — start generating in seconds.
