Seedance 2.5

Prompt

Stage a fast live-action fantasy duel at a coastal shrine during a rainstorm. Contrast fiery red energy with a silver wind effect in three rapid exchanges. Use low camera angles, forceful push-ins and abrupt cuts against broken gates and rough sea spray. No graphic injury.

Choose what guides the video

Choose 2.5 when a scene needs more time than the 15-second 2.0 tiers. Longer clips consume more credits, so establish the action with a short draft first.

How to use Seedance 2.5

Use the model-specific notes below alongside the settings table. This page offers text and image generation only, not reference audio/video, editing or extension.

Plan the shot

Break a longer scene into a few consecutive beats. Keep a single setting and describe what changes at each beat instead of packing unrelated scenes together.

Know the limits

Only text/image generation is offered here. Draft completion, reference media, video editing and extension are not included; duration is selected before submission.

Compare drafts

Keep the prompt and input image consistent when comparing settings. Change one choice at a time, then review the complete clip before choosing a larger output.

Two briefs to adapt

Writing examples, not tested outputs. Copy a brief, adapt it to your scene, and select the matching mode and duration before generating.

A brief to adapt

Start with 4 s at 480P. This is a writing example, not a tested output.

A gardener opens a greenhouse door, walks to a worktable and places a tray of seedlings beside a watering can. The camera follows smoothly from behind, then stops at the table. Morning light through misted glass.

Animate your own image

Upload your starting image in Image to video. Copying a prompt does not upload images or submit a task.

Keep the subject and setting from the starting image. Add a small, natural movement, while the camera slowly moves closer. Preserve the lighting and composition. End with a steady hold.
