PROMPT
Consistent style guideline for all shots: realistic cinematic war footage in a modern Middle Eastern desert village; dominant sandy yellow and gray-brown palette; harsh noon sunlight with hard shadows; drifting dust and gunpowder smoke; subtle handheld vibration; low-angle and ground-level framing to maximize tension and realism; modern light infantry gear without visible national identifiers; restrained, tense, and brutal atmosphere. Shot 1 : A modern infantry squad advances through narrow alleys between low adobe houses and damaged concrete walls. The camera tracks from behind at knee level, pushing forward as soldiers hug the walls and aim toward an unseen corner. Wind, distant metal clinks, and suspended dust establish dread. Shot 2 : A sudden close-quarters firefight erupts at the alley corner. Soldiers drop and press against the wall as rounds impact masonry, kicking up debris. Fast lateral camera pan with controlled shake, intermittent muzzle flashes, and silhouettes in broken windows increase claustrophobia and urgency. Shot 3 : The squad regains formation and enters a half-collapsed building. Over-shoulder follow shot into dim interior where shafts of sunlight cut through breached walls. Dust particles float in the beams; hand signals replace speech; distant gunfire echoes. Tone shifts from chaos to hyper-alert silence. Shot 4 : From a damaged rooftop, the squad secures a high vantage point over the village grid. Slow pullback in backlight, soldiers in silhouette with rifles still trained on unknown threats. Dust swirls in warm light; no clear victory or defeat. End on unresolved tension.
FAQ
What's new in Seedance 2.0 compared to previous versions?
Seedance 2.0 is a major upgrade from ByteDance's Jimeng AI. It supports true multimodal input — combining images (up to 9), videos (up to 3, total 2-15s), audio (up to 3, total up to 15s), and text in a single generation. Key improvements include more realistic physics, smoother motion, more precise instruction following, and more stable style consistency. It also features built-in sound effects and background music generation.
How does the @reference system work?
After uploading your materials, reference them in your prompt using @materialName to specify each asset's role. For example: '@image1 as first frame, @video1 reference camera movement and action, @audio1 for background music rhythm'. You can reference anything — actions, effects, styles, camera angles, characters, scenes, and sounds. The total number of uploaded files is limited to 12 across all modalities.
What are the key capabilities of Seedance 2.0?
Seedance 2.0 excels in: (1) Character and scene consistency — faces, clothing, and details remain stable across frames; (2) Precise camera movement replication from reference videos; (3) Creative template and VFX reproduction — transitions, ad formats, film segments; (4) Video extension — seamlessly extend existing videos up to 15s; (5) Video editing — replace characters, modify scenes, adjust actions in existing videos; (6) Audio-synced generation — beat-matching, voice acting, and music-driven visuals; (7) One-take long shots with coherent continuity.
What file formats and sizes are supported?
Images: jpeg, png, webp, bmp, tiff, gif (up to 9 files, each under 30MB). Videos: mp4, mov (up to 3 files, total duration 2-15s, each under 50MB, resolution between 480p and 720p). Audio: mp3, wav (up to 3 files, total duration up to 15s, each under 15MB). Generated video duration is customizable from 4 to 15 seconds.
What's the difference between All Reference and First & Last Frame modes?
All Reference mode supports full multimodal input (images, videos, audio, text) with the @reference system for maximum creative control. First & Last Frame mode is optimized for image-to-video generation where you only need to upload starting and ending frames. If you only upload a first frame image + prompt, you can use either mode; for multi-modal combinations, use All Reference mode.
Are there any content restrictions?
Due to platform compliance requirements, uploading materials containing realistic human faces (both photos and videos) is currently not supported. The system will automatically block such materials. This applies to both reference images and reference videos. Animated, illustrated, or stylized characters are not affected by this restriction.
