Seedance 2.0 - ByteDance's next-generation AI video generation model

What is Seedance 2.0?

Seedance 2.0 is a product launched by ByteDance's subsidiary, JiDream.Next-generation AI video generation modelIt focuses on multimodal reference and efficient creation capabilities. The model supports comprehensive reference of the first and last frames, video clips, and audio, accurately replicating camera movement logic, action details, and musical atmosphere, generating a 15-second video at a cost of approximately 30 credits. Its core breakthrough lies in integrating AI generation with post-editing, allowing users to directly modify unsatisfactory parts, significantly reducing the rate of rejected videos. The model performs exceptionally well in scenarios such as complex narratives, action scenes, and short drama generation, automatically generating suitable background music and sound effects, supporting multiple languages and lyrics input for specified songs, and has already been applied in the creation of animation, film, and advertising.

Main features of Seedance 2.0

• Multimodal reference generationIt supports up to 12 reference files (images, videos, and audio) to be uploaded at the same time. The AI automatically learns and replicates the composition, character features, action style, and camera language of the scene, and can accurately control the generated effect without the need for complicated prompts.
• First and last frame controlUsers can upload the first and last frame images, and AI will automatically generate intermediate transition content to achieve precise camera control and scene seamlessness.
• Native audio and video synchronizationIt achieves precise alignment between lip movements, facial expressions, and audio rhythm, supports dialogue scenes and character performances, and avoids the "dubbing feel" of traditional AI videos.
• Multi-camera narrativeIt supports direct video generation from storyboards, maintaining consistency in characters, lighting, and style across multiple shots, and can be used to create complex narrative content such as trailers and feature films.
• Automatic audio generationBuilt-in audio generation capability, which can automatically generate dialogue voice, background music and environmental sound effects to achieve integrated audio-visual creation.
• Maintaining role consistencyMaintain a high degree of consistency in character facial features, clothing, and expressions across multiple videos, supporting coherent storytelling and the creation of series content.

How to useSeedance 2.0

• Access Platform EntrySeedance 2.0 has been launched on ByteDance's JiDream platform, and users can use it directly within JiDream, supporting both desktop and mobile devices.
• Select generation modeIn the interface, select the creation method—text-based video (enter text description) or image-based video (upload reference image), and choose the appropriate workflow according to your needs.
• Upload reference materialsClick the upload area to upload up to 12 reference files in batches, including images (character, scene, style references), videos (action references), and audio (voice or music references). The AI will automatically learn the characteristics of these materials.
• Set the first and last frames (optional)For precise camera control, you can upload the first and last frame images separately, and the AI will automatically generate the transition animation in between to achieve a natural scene transition.
• Input prompt wordsEnter a video description in the text box. It is recommended to include details such as scene, action, atmosphere, and camera movement. Using reference materials can achieve a more accurate effect.
• Select parameter settingsChoose the video aspect ratio (landscape 16:9, portrait 9:16, square 1:1) according to the publishing platform, select the visual style (realistic, cinematic, anime, cyberpunk, etc.), and set the video length (5-12 seconds).
• Enable audio synchronization (optional)If you need to lip-sync or dub, upload an audio file, and the system will automatically generate lip movements and expressions that match the audio rhythm.
• Generate and PreviewClick the "Generate" button and wait for AI processing (more than 10 times faster than the previous generation). Preview the generated result. If you are not satisfied, you can adjust the prompts or refer to the materials to regenerate.
• Download and shareOnce you are satisfied with the results, download the high-definition video (supports 1080p-2K) and publish it directly to social media platforms such as Douyin and Xiaohongshu, or use it for commercial projects.
