Seedance family
What is Seedance?
ByteDance describes Seedance 2.0 as a unified multimodal audio-video generation model that accepts text, image, audio, and video inputs. Pro, Fast, and Mini are the names of PixMind's current connected routes, while Seedance 1.5 Pro remains available for established image-led workflows. This guide separates family-level capabilities from route-specific controls.
First and last frame
Define both endpoints and describe only the motion between them.
Multimodal reference
Assign identity, motion, setting, and sound to separate references.
Audio-aware direction
Tie dialogue, ambience, and effects to visible actions.

This is a dated PixMind route snapshot. Pricing and exposed controls can change; the live generator is final. A chained-duration field is not a promise of a 60-second single generation.
Prompt anatomy
Map every reference before you generate
Use this structure: subject + action + environment + camera + reference mapping + sound + ending constraint. Add only references that have a clear job.
Browse all Seedance prompt guides01
Seedance Multimodal Reference Prompts
Map each image, video, and audio reference to one clear job so the model does not have to guess which asset controls identity, motion, setting, or sound.
02
Seedance Character Consistency Prompts
Lock a character's visible identity, wardrobe, props, and screen direction before varying shot size or camera movement.
03
Seedance Dialogue and Audio Prompts
Tie one short spoken line, room tone, and each important sound cue to the visible action that should produce it.
04
Seedance Cinematic Camera Prompts
Separate subject movement from camera movement and change one camera variable at a time.
Use cases
What can you make with Seedance?
Multi-shot Storytelling with Seedance
Plan one readable beat per shot and keep identity, props, weather, and screen direction stable across the sequence.
Product Ads with Seedance
Build product films around exact shape, material, one motivated camera move, and a deliberate final composition.
Social Media Videos with Seedance
Test opening hooks as controlled variants, then promote the useful direction instead of changing every variable at once.
Character Dialogue with Seedance
Direct a short performance with stable identity, precise eyelines, restrained dialogue, and source-linked room sound.
Music Video Concepts with Seedance
Translate musical structure into visible actions, camera rhythm, and clearly assigned audio references.
Storyboard Previsualization with Seedance
Turn each storyboard beat into a decision-ready motion draft before committing to a final render.
Seedance FAQ
Which Seedance version should I start with?
Start with Pro for complex references or selected final takes, Fast for controlled direction tests, Mini for early concept validation, and 1.5 Pro when maintaining an existing image-led workflow.
Which Seedance inputs and controls are currently available in PixMind?
Seedance 2.0 Pro, Fast, and Mini currently expose text or image generation, first and last frame control, and multimodal reference mode with image, video, and audio inputs. Seedance 1.5 Pro currently uses one image-led mode with text direction and up to two images.
What is the practical difference between Pro, Fast, and Mini?
Pro is the quality route for the selected direction, Fast is the iteration route for controlled A/B tests, and Mini is the concept-validation route for checking references, composition, and prompt conflicts. These are workflow roles, not fixed promises about speed or cost.
Why is Seedance 1.5 Pro still available?
It provides continuity for established image-led prompts and a stable baseline for migration tests. Keep it when the existing workflow meets delivery needs; move to 2.0 when the shot needs multimodal references or first and last frame control.
What durations and resolutions are shown for the current routes?
Pro and Fast list 5, 10, or 15 seconds; Pro lists 480p, 720p, and 1080p, while Fast and Mini list 480p and 720p. The 1.5 Pro duration fields conflict and its response lists 480p, 720p, and 1080p, so confirm every final choice in the live generator.
Do the connected Seedance routes support audio?
All four connected route records report audio capability, and the 2.0 routes accept audio in multimodal reference mode. Review actual speech, lip movement, sound sources, distortion, and timing before publishing.
Can I rely on 4K or a fixed credit price?
No. The Pro response lists 4K, but it still requires successful live UI and delivered-file verification. Pro, Fast, and Mini do not expose a stable credit field in the verified snapshot; 1.5 Pro reports 40 points, which must also be confirmed live.
What must I check before publishing a Seedance video?
Review identity, faces, hands, product geometry, text, logos, continuity, dialogue, audio timing, and the full clip frame by frame. Confirm rights for every uploaded person, brand, voice, image, video, and audio asset.
