Principles of Work

Seedance 2.5 uses AI to create high-definition video and synchronized audio in a single generation. It uses your uploaded or library image together with your Narration, Action Prompt, Camera Motion, and Action Template to create natural facial expressions, gestures, and continuous scenes.

Seedance 2.5 is an upgraded version of Seedance 2.0. It is designed to keep the character’s appearance, scene lighting, and audio consistent throughout longer videos without needing to combine multiple video clips.

Main Features:

  • 4–30-Second Video Generation: Create videos from 4 to 30 seconds in a single generation.

  • Built-in Audio: Generates speech, background sounds, and other audio together with the video. This also helps keep speech and lip movements in sync.

  • Consistent Scenes: Keeps facial details, clothing, textures, and lighting consistent throughout the video.

  • Better Prompt Understanding: Follows detailed prompts and can handle multiple character actions and camera movements.

  • Multiple Reference Inputs: Can use multiple reference assets to help keep characters, objects, and visual styles consistent.

  • Cross-Model Regeneration: Can be used as a high-quality reference when testing the same settings with other video models.
