Seedance is ByteDance Seed’s video generation family. ByteDance Seed published the official launch of Seedance 2.0 on February 12, 2026.

What is current

Seedance 2.0 is a unified multimodal audio-video model. ByteDance says it accepts four input types (text, image, audio and video) and can combine up to 9 images, 3 video clips and 3 audio clips with natural-language instructions, generating audio and video together at 4 to 15 seconds. It is available globally through ByteDance’s Dreamina platform. See the model tracker.

How prompting works

Name each reference by its role: which image is the character, which clip gives the camera movement, which audio sets the rhythm. Then describe the scene in a sentence or two.

Who should use it

Creators who start from references such as characters, shots and soundtracks rather than only text. Compare it with Veo and Kling.

Prompts to try in Seedance

PROMPT 01
Use the character from image 1 and the camera movement from video 1. She walks along a seaside promenade at sunset, waves and gulls in the background.
Multi-reference
PROMPT 02
A dancer in a warehouse, movements timed to the beat of the attached audio, moody blue lighting, handheld camera.
Audio reference
PROMPT 03
A sneaker rotates slowly on a pastel pedestal, soft studio light, a clean whoosh as it spins.
