Seedance 2.0 AI Video Generator

Treat the prompt as a description of one shot. Say who or what is in frame, what happens, where it is, how the camera moves and what we hear: "steam rises from a bowl of ramen on a wooden counter, close-up slowly pulling back, warm light, quiet restaurant chatter". Every part of that sentence is something the model can render.

Put the most important element first. If the subject matters most, start with it; if the camera move is the point of the shot, lead with the move. Keep one main action per clip and generate a sequence as separate clips.

The prompt box takes up to 20,000 characters, so there is room for detail. Use it to be precise about one action rather than to describe several scenes at once.

The fastest way to a good clip is several quick attempts. Start at 480p with the shortest duration, change one thing in the prompt at a time and watch what moves. When the framing and the motion are right, raise the resolution and the length for the final version.

Because the per-second rate is low at 480p, a handful of drafts often costs less than one full-quality render on a premium model. The price table on this page lists every combination, so you can plan a draft budget before you begin.

A good first frame is sharp, well lit and already composed the way the shot should open. For a last frame, keep the same size and shape and the subject in a similar place, then describe the movement between the two pictures. The closer the two frames, the more predictable the motion.

If your images need work, crop, upscale or clean them up first with the free image tools. A clean source picture shows in every frame of the clip.

Describe sound inside the action it belongs to: "a door slams and the dog starts barking" ties the sound to the moment it should happen. Keep it to one or two clear sources plus a general ambience.

If the video will carry narration or a licensed track, treat the generated audio as a placeholder and replace it in the AI video editor.

When you need many clips, such as a month of social posts or a set of cutaways for a long video, write the prompts first in a simple list. Give each one the same style words for light, colour and camera so the finished clips look like they belong together, and change only the subject and the action.

Generate the whole list at a low resolution, review it in one sitting and regenerate only the clips that miss. Then render the keepers at the resolution you will publish. This keeps the cost predictable and the look consistent across the batch.

For a product, the first frame does most of the work. Use a clean photo on a simple background, upload it as the first frame and describe one movement: a slow turn, a push in, a hand reaching for it. Keep text and logos large in the photo, because small print is the hardest detail for any video model to keep sharp.

If you need a complete advert rather than a single shot, the AI video ad generator writes the script, picks the shots and adds a voice for you.

On AgentReel a clip costs 24 to 383 credits. The price is a per-second rate set by the resolution, times the duration, and the table on this page lists every combination. The Generate button shows the exact price before you spend anything, and a failed clip is refunded automatically.

Credits come from a plan or credit pack. Free credits cover Z-Image, video templates and Code to Video only, so this model needs paid credits. The credits and pricing guide explains the details.

Against Seedance 2.5, the settings are identical and the price is lower; 2.5 is the newer model. Wan 3.0 starts even lower but has five aspect ratios instead of six. Veo 3.1 goes up to 4K, Kling 3.0 adds a sound switch and more clip lengths, and MiniMax H3 renders up to 2K.

All of these sit in the same AI video generator, so comparing them on one prompt is a matter of switching the model menu. The model overview has a page for each.
