Seedance 2.0 features

01Follows multi-shot prompts

Seedance 2.0 reads a prompt like a film crew reads a shot list. Write the shots in order, say where the camera starts and where it goes, and the video usually keeps that sequence instead of merging everything into one shot. Short, separate beats like “wide shot, then close-up on the hands” work better than one long paragraph.

02Smooth camera movement

Push-ins, slow pans, orbits around a subject and handheld follow shots are Seedance 2.0’s strengths. Name the move and its pace plainly, like “slow dolly in” or “the camera circles the table once”, and keep one main move per shot. Framing stays stable, which matters for product videos and calm establishing shots.

03Synchronized sound

Seedance 2.0 renders audio together with the video, so footsteps land on each step, the rain you hear matches the rain you see, and a door sounds when it shuts on screen. Describe the ambience, effects and music mood in your prompt, or turn audio off before creating if you will add your own track.

04Any aspect ratio, even from a photo

Six aspect ratios are available in both modes: 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, 16:9 for YouTube and presentations, 1:1 and 3:4 for feeds, 4:3 for a classic frame and 21:9 for a cinematic widescreen look. Unlike Seedance 2.5, MiniMax H3 and Kling 4, Seedance 2.0 lets you pick the ratio even when you start from an image.

05Animate a still image

Add one image as the first frame and Seedance 2.0 animates forward from it: a product photo starts to rotate, a portrait looks up, an illustration begins to move. The first frame locks in the look, colors and composition, so your prompt only needs to describe what happens next and how the camera moves.

06480p or 720p

Use 480p to test an idea or check timing, then 720p for the version you post. Both work with every length from 4 to 15 seconds and every aspect ratio. A 480p run uses fewer credits, so refine the prompt there first and rerun at 720p once the motion looks right.

How to use Seedance 2.0

  1. 01

    Write a prompt or add a photo

    Describe the subject, action, camera and sound in a few short sentences. For image to video, drop a photo into the first-frame slot; Seedance 2.0 starts from that image and your prompt says what moves next.

  2. 02

    Set ratio, duration and resolution

    Open the settings and choose one of six aspect ratios, a duration from 4 to 15 seconds, and 480p or 720p. Keep audio on for sound, or turn it off if you will add music later.

  3. 03

    Generate and download

    Press Create; the button shows the credit cost before anything is spent. Sign in and top up only if needed, then download the finished MP4. Every clip is also saved in My videos.

Seedance 2.0 FAQ

What is Seedance 2.0?

Seedance 2.0 is an AI video generation model from ByteDance. It turns a text prompt, or a prompt plus one starting image, into a short video with sound. On Copy AI Video you can use it on this page or pick it in the text to video and image to video tools, alongside Seedance 2.5, MiniMax H3 and Kling 4.

How long can a Seedance 2.0 video be?

Each clip runs 4 to 15 seconds, with options of 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 15 seconds. Credits are charged per second, so shorter clips cost less. For one continuous take longer than 15 seconds, Seedance 2.5 goes up to 30 seconds at the same two resolutions.

What resolution and aspect ratios does Seedance 2.0 support?

Seedance 2.0 renders at 480p or 720p, in 9:16, 16:9, 1:1, 3:4, 4:3 or 21:9, and the ratio choice stays available in image to video mode too. For the cleanest result from a photo, upload one that is already close to the ratio you pick. Use 480p for drafts and 720p for the final clip.

Does Seedance 2.0 generate sound?

Yes. Audio is generated together with the picture: ambient sound and effects that match the action, plus music if you ask for it. Steer it in the prompt, for example “quiet café chatter, a cup set down on a saucer”. Use the audio switch in the settings bar to turn it off if you want to add your own soundtrack.

Seedance 2.0 text to video or image to video?

Use text when you want the model to design the whole scene. Use an image when the look must be exact: a product, a character you drew, a place you photographed. The image becomes the first frame and the prompt describes the motion and sound. Both modes offer the same lengths, resolutions and aspect ratios.

How much does Seedance 2.0 cost?

Seedance 2.0 is priced per second, so the total depends on the duration and resolution you choose. The Create button always shows the exact credit cost before you pay. Credits are sold in one-time packs, never expire, and return to your balance automatically if a render fails.

What happens to the image I upload?

Your image is used only to make your video and is deleted when you delete that video. The finished video is saved in My videos so you can watch and download it again later. Only upload images you have the right to use, and never photos of other people without their consent.

Seedance 2.0 vs Seedance 2.5 vs MiniMax H3: what’s the difference?

All three generate video from text or a first frame. Seedance 2.0 makes 4 to 15 seconds at 480p or 720p and keeps the aspect ratio choice in image mode. Seedance 2.5 reaches 30 seconds at the same resolutions but follows the photo’s ratio in image mode. MiniMax H3 renders 4 to 15 seconds in 2K, always with sound.
