Choose Seedance 2 Mini when a short video direction needs to combine a prompt with image, video, or audio references and the current 480p or 720p choices fit the delivery.

Seedance 2 Mini task directions

These local video examples are attributed to the Seedance family. They show task directions, not a benchmark between model versions.

Every card identifies whether it is a verified model-family example or a visual reference. Reference cards are not model benchmarks or before-and-after claims.

Input contract
Text prompt or compatible reference media: image (up to 3), video (up to 3), audio (up to 3)
Current controls
Prompt length: Up to 20,000 characters · Duration: 4–15 seconds · Output resolution: 480P / 720P · Framing: 7 aspect-ratio choices
Selection boundary
Compare Seedance 2 when the project needs an explicit 1080p or 4K choice. Compare another workflow when the required clip length or source-media contract is outside the current 4 to 15 second setup.

How to create a video with Seedance 2 Mini

Choose the one reference type that establishes the motion direction, then write the action, camera behavior, and pace around it.

  1. 1

    Choose the primary motion source

    Decide whether the prompt, a still, a motion clip, or audio supplies the clearest starting point; do not add unrelated media.

  2. 2

    Add reference media when needed

    Add approved compatible media only when an existing frame, motion, or sound should guide the result.

  3. 3

    Confirm duration and output controls

    Confirm the current 4–15 seconds, 480P / 720P, and 7 aspect-ratio choices in the workspace before generation.

  4. 4

    Generate and review continuity

    Before public use, inspect subject motion, camera changes, visible text, sound, and the final frame.
