Locked macro of an unbranded matte-black espresso cup on pale stone. Steam rises and curls left. Slow push-in that stops at the rim. Soft window light, quiet room tone, no text.

Start close on a brass compass in an open palm, then dolly back to reveal a hiker on a ridge at sunrise. One continuous move that ends on a stable wide shot. Wind, distant birds.

2D anime style. A girl in a yellow raincoat jumps a puddle on a neon-lit street; the splash freezes for a beat, then falls. Side tracking shot, bold outlines, city ambience.

Seedance AI settings and video costs

Calculate your video budget480p through 2K by model
Resolution options change with the selected model. The workspace does not merge upstream claims into one universal capability.
Compatible controls only
Workflow, aspect ratio, duration, image count and audio controls reconcile whenever the model changes.
Credits fixed before generation
The displayed product credit charge is calculated from resolution and duration. Confirmed failed tasks are refunded automatically.

How to write Seedance video prompts
Describe the subject, what changes, the camera movement and the timing. Add dialogue or sound only when the chosen model supports it. Start with a short test, then revise the parts you can observe.
Prompt checkpoints
- Describe what changes; reference images already define what is visible.
- Put spoken dialogue in double quotes when audio is enabled.
- Test motion at 480p and short duration before the final render.

A useful shot has a spine
Subject first. Then the move, timing and sound that make the direction legible to the model. Keep each beat observable. If the action cannot be seen, it is difficult to evaluate or revise.

Seedance AI FAQ
Answers grounded in the settings and behavior available in the current product.
What is Seedance AI on this website?
SeedanceAI.dev is an independent video workspace using third-party API access. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by ByteDance, Doubao or Dreamina.
Can I use Seedance 2.5 here?
Seedance 2.5 is selectable in this workspace. Review the current settings and credit charge before submitting; an account with enough credits is required.
Is Seedance 2.5 free here?
Eligible new accounts with verified email receive 5 credits, enough for one 5-second 480p Seedance 2.0 Mini video. Disposable addresses and repeat accounts on the same network within 24 hours are restricted. Seedance 2.5 uses 30 credits for that configuration; see the free-access guide and credit plans.
Free access and eligibility →How much does a Seedance 2.5 video cost?
A 5-second video uses 30 credits at 480p or 60 at 720p. Packs currently start at $9.9. Dollar estimates per video depend on the plan, configuration and use of its credits.
Calculate video costs →What durations and resolutions can I choose?
Seedance 2.5 currently offers 5, 8, 10, 15 and 30-second options at 480p or 720p here. Seedance 2.0 offers 5, 8, 10 and 15-second options. These describe this product, not every provider.
Which references can I upload?
Seedance image-to-video accepts up to two images here. Image-reference mode accepts up to six images. This browser workspace does not currently provide video or audio reference uploads.
Is Seedance 2.5 unlimited here?
This workspace uses product credits per task. The unlimited comparison explains other providers’ time windows, queues and plan limits; it is not an unlimited offer from this site.
Compare unlimited plans →What happens if a generation fails?
Provider-confirmed failed tasks follow the credit-return process. A task that is still queued or processing is not treated as failed. Keep the task record and avoid duplicate submissions while it is running.
Can I use the videos commercially?
Commercial use depends on your plan, current provider and model terms, and rights to your inputs and requested content. Access to a model does not clear third-party characters, brands, music or likenesses.

Use 480p and five seconds to validate the prompt before moving to a longer 720p generation.
