Seedance 2.5

Move from a written scene to a video. Set the subject, action and mood in your prompt.

  • Text to video
Create with Seedance 2.5
Generated video

Generated with Seedance 2.5. An example of what you can create.

A starting point.

Build a short atmospheric video around a simple action. The jellyfish example uses one subject and a restrained background to make movement easy to read.

Try a prompt like this

A luminous jellyfish drifts slowly through deep blue water. Its tentacles move gently as the camera follows at a calm, constant distance.

Before you publish.

Look for smooth movement, consistent shapes and a useful opening and ending frame. Trim the result in an editor if you need a seamless loop.

Review the quote before running. A failed generation releases its reserved credits. Download the results you want to keep; stored media is retained for 30 days.

Inputs and settings

The featured text-to-video endpoint starts with a text prompt. Use an image-to-video endpoint when the opening frame must come from your photo.

Describe one action and camera movement, then choose duration, resolution and aspect_ratio from the current studio options. A longer clip needs a movement that can remain coherent throughout.

Decide whether to include sound using generate_audio where available. Review the clip with sound enabled, and quote the selected settings before submitting.

How should I compare Seedance 2.5 costs?

Request quotes for the same task, duration, resolution and audio setting when comparing available operations. Raywake uses credits per generation; a subscription to another service is a separate offer. Review your actual output against the brief before deciding whether a run was worth its cost.

Use Seedance 2.5 through the API.

Start with this model ID for the endpoint featured on this page:

bytedance/seedance-2.5/text-to-video

Input requirements belong to this model ID. Check a different mode’s schema separately when switching modes.

Available modes

Check the current model schema for supported inputs and options. Other tasks may use different model IDs.

From quote to result.

Request a credit quote for your input and settings before submitting a generation. A sample output or the price of another model is not a quote for your request.

Follow the generation workflow, then poll the job for its status and result. The API and studio use the same balance.
