Seedance 2.0 Fast is a route for working through a video idea with text, an opening image or several references. In EveryGen AI it offers 480p and 720p output, four-to-fifteen-second durations and a generated-audio switch. Start with a short shot that answers one question: does the movement, staging or mood work for this idea?
The Fast name identifies the provider variant; it is not a guaranteed completion time. Its fixed credit table lets you compare the cost of revising a five-second shot with a longer request. Once the composition works, use the same brief to compare another route if you need an output size that this workspace does not expose.
THE POSSIBILITIES
Choose the input that fits your idea, then shape the motion. Clips below are local sample footage for the layout.
Write the action you want the viewer to notice first. Keep the setting and camera movement simple, and use the first take to assess the idea rather than asking for a complete edited advertisement. The four-to-fifteen-second selection gives you room to choose the smallest clip that still communicates the action.
A five-second 720p request has its own fixed estimate; changing duration refreshes it.
Image mode can start from a first frame, while reference mode is useful when a subject, room and motion have separate sources. First and last frames describe endpoints. Additional image references describe appearance. Pick the appropriate control before uploading so the files are sent with the intended roles.
Fast keeps the reference workflow while limiting the requested output sizes to 480p and 720p.
Use the generated-audio option when ambience or a simple sound event helps explain the action. Describe the event alongside the picture, then listen for timing and unwanted voices when reviewing a result. Keep a silent version in mind if your production needs separately recorded speech, music or a precise sound mix.
Change one element of the brief at a time; more prompt adjectives do not substitute for a clear shot.
FROM IDEA TO A TAKE
A clear starting point, a focused brief and settings you can review before submitting.
Open Seedance 2.0 Fast in the generator above. Choose Text to video for a written scene or Image to video when you have an opening composition. Choose Multi-reference when several files have distinct roles.
Write the subject, action, camera direction and lighting. In image mode, add a first frame and an optional compatible last frame. If using appearance references, select the reference-image control and assign roles to up to 9 images.
Choose 480p or 720p output. Pick a supported duration from 4 to 15 seconds. Set the aspect ratio for the destination. Review the estimate after changing a setting or adding a reference clip.
When generation is enabled, submit after reviewing the brief and content checks. Track the request in Recent takes. Review the full clip for subject details, continuity and sound, then download a useful result or change one part of the brief for the next take.
A STARTING POINT, NOT A SCRIPT
Load a brief with supported settings in the full workspace. Review it and add your own images or references where required.
Two travelers pause beside a quiet roadside stop at dusk. A slow camera push brings their faces into a medium shot. Warm overhead lighting and cool evening sky, natural posture, one continuous take. Keep the background vehicles stationary. No text or fast cuts.
Use this to compare lighting or camera pace while keeping the subject unchanged.
Use the uploaded photograph as the opening composition. The subject looks toward the light and makes one small natural gesture. Move the camera gently to the right while keeping the face and clothing recognizable. Maintain the setting and avoid adding props or changing the outfit.
Supply a clear first frame. Add a last frame only when you have a deliberate destination for the move.
PUT THE SHOT TO WORK
Start with the job the clip needs to do. Keep final editing and a full review in your workflow.
Try one visible gesture or reveal in a vertical frame. Check whether it reads immediately before adding more movement or expanding the duration.
Keep the subject and scene fixed while testing a pan against a tracking move. Record the setup so the next comparison is based on one change.
Explore lighting and subject placement for a short product moment. Treat exact logos, text and final layout as separate production work.
BEFORE YOUR NEXT TAKE
Decide whether you are testing motion, lighting or framing. Keep the other decisions stable. This makes a second request easier to evaluate and avoids paying for a different scene that no longer answers the original question.
This Fast configuration stops at 720p. Open the Seedance 2.0 page if you want to compare its additional size options. A larger requested output is a separate configuration and quote, not a promise that an existing finished clip will be upscaled.
THE SETUP
Every model has its own inputs and credit rules. Changing a setting refreshes your quote.
| Duration | 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 seconds |
|---|---|
| Output sizes | 480p · 720p |
| Frame inputs | First frame + optional last frame |
| Additional references | 9 images · 3 videos · 3 audio files, where the mode supports them |
| Audio | Optional generated audio |
FIXED CREDIT RULES
A 20-credit content-check allowance is included once per request. Reference videos use the total uploaded duration, rounded up to a second.
| Resolution | Input | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| 480p | Text / supported images | 41 credits / output second |
| 720p | Text / supported images | 88 credits / output second |
| 480p | With reference video | 25 credits / second of reference + output |
| 720p | With reference video | 53 credits / second of reference + output |
Rate version v8-fixed-2026-10-11. The final quote appears before submission. Paid generation is awaiting activation.

Inputs, output settings and credit rules for this workspace.
Text to video is supported: describe a scene and its movement. First frame + optional last frame are supported in image mode. A separate reference-image control accepts up to 9 images for appearance guidance.
480p, 720p output is offered with durations from 4 to 15 seconds. The controls above use these same settings. A resolution selection describes the requested output and does not guarantee native detail or readable small text.
Multi-reference mode exposes up to 9 image, 3 video and 3 audio references. Explain each file's role in the prompt. Video-reference duration changes the estimate; inspect the quote after uploads are processed.
The credit table below the controls section lists this model's fixed rates for every supported output size. Some routes charge per request and others by duration. A content-check allowance is included once. Use Review credit estimate in the generator for the actual settings and uploaded reference duration before submitting.
This route has an optional generated-audio control under Audio, seed & camera. Describe relevant ambience or effects in the brief, then listen to the full result. Sound generation does not replace a final voice recording or music mix.
Prompts and image references are checked before submission. A rejection or unavailable check stops submission. These checks do not audit reference-video frames or audio tracks. Confirmed failed tasks release reserved credits once; an uncertain submission remains under review to avoid duplicate requests.
The current clips are local sample footage used to demonstrate the layout. They are not outputs from the displayed prompts, model benchmarks or evidence of a specific model's quality. Example prompts are editable starting points; image and reference examples require your own uploads.
