Seedance 2.0 — AI Video Generator by ByteDance
Skip the film crew. Keep the cinematic look.

Key Features of Seedance 2.0
Multimodal reference control
Combine up to 9 images, 3 video clips, and 3 audio files — 12 reference assets in a single generation — alongside your text prompt. Direct what each reference controls: this image is the character, that video is the camera move, this track is the beat.
Native audio-visual generation
Dialogue, ambient sound, music, and sound effects generate in the same pass as the video. Lip-sync lands on the words, SFX land on the action, and nothing needs to be stitched in later.
Multi-shot storytelling
Write a three-act sequence in one prompt and get back a coherent scene — not three disconnected clips. Characters, wardrobe, lighting, and visual logic stay consistent across cuts.
Character & style consistency
Upload one reference photo and the model locks face, clothing, and styling across every shot in the video — and across separate generations if you're building a series.
Director-level camera control
Pan, tilt, push-in, slow motion, one-take tracking shots — describe the move in plain English or reference a clip that already has the move, and the model replicates it.
Cinematic motion & physics
Cloth, fluids, hair, collisions, contact dynamics — Seedance 2.0 is built to handle the kind of physical interaction that makes most AI video look "off." Fight choreography holds up; a drink pouring actually splashes; fabric drapes.
1080p output, 6 aspect ratios
Generate clips between 4 and 15 seconds per shot, in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, or 21:9 — covering every feed, placement, and landing page format without re-editing.
Watermark-free, commercial-ready
All outputs are clean and cleared for commercial use. Ads, client work, social content, product pages — ship the file directly.
How Seedance 2.0 Works
Upload your references
Drop in up to 9 images, 3 video clips, and 3 audio files — up to 12 assets in a single generation. The more specific your references, the less your prompt has to do.
Describe the shot
Write what you want in plain English and point at specific references inline — which image is the character, which video supplies the motion, which audio sets the rhythm. One clear scene at a time works better than a paragraph.
Generate, preview, extend
Pick your aspect ratio and duration, then generate. If the first cut is close but not finished, use the extend feature to continue the scene with the same characters and motion — no need to start over.
What Creators Are Building With Seedance 2.0
UGC-style video ads from a single product photo
For DTC brands, Shopify sellers, and performance marketing teams.
You have a product photo and three days to ship a Meta or TikTok ad test. One hero image plus a pacing reference plus a short prompt gives you a full unboxing, lifestyle, or demo clip with spoken dialogue and on-brand audio — without booking a creator, a studio, or a voice actor. Re-run with a different audio track and variant #2 is ready in minutes.
Storyboard-to-video pipelines
For directors, creative teams, and visual storytellers working from locked-in concept art.
Most AI video tools burn credits on blind generations. Pair Seedance 2.0 with a locked-in storyboard (from Midjourney, GPT-Image 2, or your own art) and each shot arrives the first time the way you pictured it — because the reference image is carrying 90% of the creative decisions. This is the workflow creators on X keep calling a game-changer.
Cinematic action & narrative shorts
For short-form creators, indie filmmakers, and visual-effects artists.
Fight choreography, slow-motion chase scenes, surreal sequences, style transitions between live-action and animated — the kind of thing that used to need a VFX budget. Seedance 2.0's physics and multi-shot logic holds up across all of it, and the native audio means the punches actually land.
Music videos, beat-synced content, and lip-sync performance
For independent musicians, MV directors, and sync creators working from a track.
Upload audio as a reference and the visual is cut to the track — beats land on cuts, lyrics line up with mouth movement, pacing follows the rhythm. No other mainstream video model supports audio as a first-class input this cleanly. A rough music video drafts in minutes instead of a production weekend.
Manga & comic panel animation
For manga artists, webcomic creators, and IP owners animating static art.
Turn a single panel — or a full storyboard — into a moving shot with consistent character design and dynamic camera work. Crowd reactions, establishing sweeps, signature poses holding into motion: the static art stays recognizable, but the scene starts to breathe.
Brand reels, promo content & cinematic landing-page video
For agencies, social leads, and founders producing brand content without a film crew.
Short-form hero videos, cinematic promos, looped landing-page backgrounds, homepage reels — production-grade output that reads as "professional film" rather than "AI-generated." Character and style lock let a single brand campaign stay visually cohesive across a dozen cuts.
Upload a clean product shot and a lifestyle reference clip. Generate a 9:16, 8-second unboxing scene with warm morning-kitchen lighting, hands-on demo, and an upbeat ending freeze-frame. Native SFX on.
