Describe the full take, set the basic output direction, and attach the references that carry the most important visual, motion, spatial, or audio information.
Reference inputs: up to 30 images, 10 video clips,
and 10 audio clips in one request. Add clay-render or white-model references when blocking and
camera structure matter.

Seedance 2.5 Features
The 2.5 upgrade moves Seedance from short clip generation toward a more complete creative workflow: longer takes, more references, and focused edits that keep the story coherent.
Multi-Round Extension
Continue the strongest take while keeping characters, environments, pacing, visual language, and sound aligned across the extension.
50 Multimodal References
Combine up to 30 images, 10 video clips, and 10 audio clips to communicate subjects, scenes, styles, motion, composition, and sound.
Timestamp-Level Editing
Target a specific time range when changing an action, camera move, plot beat, or audio cue instead of rebuilding the whole sequence.
Camera and Blocking Control
Use camera perspective, performance blocking, motion references, and clay-render or white-model inputs to describe complex spatial direction.
Green-Screen Editing
Replace backgrounds or adapt existing footage while preserving the subject and asking for coherent lighting, clothing, hair, and motion in the new environment.
How to Use Seedance 2.5
A simple three-step workflow for turning a brief and a set of production references into a longer, more editable take.
Write the Story Direction
Describe the subject, ordered actions, camera language, pacing, environment, dialogue, and sound. Use time ranges when the story has clear beats.
Map the Useful Assets
Use images for design, video for movement, audio for dialogue or rhythm, and clay renders for spatial structure. Name each reference clearly.
Generate, Extend, and Edit
Review the complete take, extend the strongest output, or make one focused timestamp edit while preserving the surrounding content.

Seedance 2.5 FAQ
Answers to the practical questions creators ask before building a longer video workflow.
What is Seedance 2.5?
Seedance 2.5 is ByteDance Seed's next-generation audio-video joint generation model. It supports up to 30-second generation, multimodal references, multi-round extension, and precise video and audio editing for more controlled storytelling.
How long can Seedance 2.5 generate in one pass?
Seedance 2.5 can generate up to 30 seconds of audio-video content in a single pass. It also supports multiple rounds of extension for longer stories; the official model page highlights two additional extension rounds.
How many reference assets can Seedance 2.5 use?
One generation can use up to 30 images, 10 video clips, and 10 audio clips, for up to 50 multimodal reference assets in total. The exact availability can vary by product surface.
Does Seedance 2.5 generate audio with video?
Yes. Seedance 2.5 is an audio-video joint generation model and can produce audio-video clips together. Audio references can also guide dialogue, rhythm, atmosphere, and other sound-related decisions.
What is timestamp-level editing?
Timestamp-level editing lets you specify when a change should happen, such as revising an action, camera movement, plot beat, or audio cue in a defined time range while keeping the surrounding content consistent.
Can Seedance 2.5 edit green-screen footage and camera perspective?
Yes. The model supports green-screen editing, camera perspective editing, and reference-based editing. These workflows can replace backgrounds or adjust camera decisions while preserving the intended subject and action.
What are clay-render and white-model references used for?
They communicate spatial structure, character poses, motion paths, camera angles, and blocking without requiring a fully rendered scene. Seedance 2.5 can combine that structural reference with separate visual, material, lighting, or character references.
Can I use Seedance 2.5 videos commercially?
Commercial usage depends on your PromptGather plan and the applicable Seedance 2.5 model and platform terms. Review the current terms before using generated videos for clients, advertising, marketing, or monetization.
Build the Whole Take, Not Just the First Shot
Start with a clear direction, bring the references that matter, and use Seedance 2.5 to move from a short brief toward a coherent, editable video.
