Director's notes

Tips for best results with Seedance 2.0

Four habits that separate a clean take from an expensive re-roll.

  • Draft low, finish 4K

    A 480p pass proves the motion. Spend the 4K render once.

    Draft 480p, ship 4K

  • Reference every recurring subject

    One still per character or product. Up to 9 ride along.

    On model, on palette

  • Describe the sound too

    Audio is a toggle. Name the ambience in the prompt and switch it on.

    Audio opt-in

  • Write beats like a shot list

    Subject, move, light, in order. The model follows the order.

    Shot list, not prose

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Seedance 2.0 is ByteDance's high-resolution video model, and on OpenClips it renders native 4K with optional audio. Clips run 4–15s in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4 or 21:9, with presets at 5s and 10s. You can attach up to 9 reference images. Pricing starts at ⚡56 for the smallest render, and the composer quotes the exact cost first.

Open the OpenClips composer, pick Seedance 2.0, and type what you want to see. Set the resolution and the clip length, drop in up to 9 reference images if you have them, then check the ⚡ quote. Press render and the take lands in your library, ready to download or rework on another model.

No, 4K video is paid compute anywhere you find it, and on OpenClips you pay per render in credits. A free account starts with ⚡50, which is there to test the roster on cheap settings. Packs start at $10/1,000⚡. No subscription is needed to reach the model, and nothing is charged before you accept the quote.

No. Seedance is a closed ByteDance model, and on OpenClips it runs as a hosted service behind the composer. You never install weights, rent a GPU or babysit a queue. You write a prompt, pick 480p, 720p, 1080p or 4K, and pay per render from one wallet. Every take stays in one library.

Pick 2.0 when resolution decides the job, because it renders up to 4K while 2.5 tops out at 720p. Pick 2.5 when one long take matters more, since it runs to 30s against the 4–15s range here. 2.0 accepts 9 references and 2.5 accepts 30, and both offer opt-in audio. They sit one chip apart in the composer.

It starts at ⚡56 and climbs with resolution and seconds, so a 480p test is cheap and a 4K finish is not. The composer prices the exact cell you picked before anything runs. Draft on Seedance 2.0 Fast from ⚡45 or Seedance 2.0 Mini from ⚡28, then spend the 4K render once.

Yes, when you switch audio on for the render: it is a per-render toggle, off by default. With it on, sound comes back with the picture and you skip a separate music or effects pass. Describe the sound you want in the prompt alongside the action. The clip lands in your library with the track attached.

In the OpenClips composer from any browser, with no install and no vendor account to set up. Sign in, choose Seedance 2.0 from the model list, and render. The same wallet covers the rest of the roster, so you can draft on a cheaper model and finish the keeper here.

Native 4K, no upscaler in the middle

You brief a shot, Seedance 2.0 renders it at 4K, and audio is one toggle in the same pass. Nothing gets stretched on the way out. That matters when type, logos and fine texture sit in frame. Clips run 4–15s in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4 or 21:9, with presets at 5s and 10s.

References keep a campaign on model

Up to 9 reference images ride along with the prompt: a face, a product, a palette, a set. Seedance 1.5 Pro takes 2, so 2.0 is the one to reach for when everything has to match across shots. The same holds for any beat where the object has to stay itself across a cut.

When another Seedance fits better

Length over resolution: Seedance 2.5 tops out at 720p but holds one take far longer. Seedance 2.5 extends single-pass generation from 15 to 30 seconds. Seedance 2.5 is built on the audio-video architecture of Seedance 2.0. Want something silent and cheap for animatics? Seedance 1.0 Pro renders 1080p without audio. Drafting in volume? Seedance 2.0 Fast and Seedance 2.0 Mini run 480p or 720p from ⚡45 and ⚡28, and then you spend the 4K render once.

One composer, one wallet

Every take lands in the same library, whatever model made it. Browse the whole roster on the models hub, or start from the AI Video Generator and switch models without moving your prompt. Draft cheap, finish at 4K, pay per render.
