Dark fantasy cinematic CG scene in a ruined temple beneath storm clouds. The silver-haired female warrior in 
@Image1 wears torn white battlewear and is bound by glowing purple magic chains. 
@Image2 A distant throne mage casts spells before a giant violet rune circle as broken stones float in the air. The camera cuts from a villain close-up to the warrior falling, struggling, lifting her head, awakening, and defeating the enemy with magic. Oppressive mood, epic scale, dramatic lighting.

Seedance showcase preview
Seedance 2.5 is ByteDance’s multimodal AI video model for longer, controllable clips. Topview is the product where you use it: write a prompt, add references, generate, and edit. Seedance 2.5 is one model inside Topview’s AI video generator. Topview is the workspace.
These clips show film, ads, fashion, and social spots made as longer sequences. Each card keeps its own title.
Create a sci-fi mini film.
Write a revenge drama scene.
Make a cinematic fight sequence.
Create an anime story scene.
Make a bedtime story cartoon.
Create a game concept CG trailer.
Four practical model capabilities for longer stories, precise reference control, visual planning, and multilingual delivery. Each card includes a media slot for your own proof-of-output example.
Build a complete sequence in one generation instead of stitching together many short clips. Longer continuity gives ads, short dramas, explainers, and cinematic concepts room to establish, develop, and resolve.
Guide identity, products, locations, movement, rhythm, and sound with up to 30 images, 10 videos, and 10 audio files within the supported duration limits.
Use contact sheets, storyboards, keyframes, white-model previs, or green-screen references to define shot order, composition, staging, and transitions before generation.
Create dialogue in multiple languages with improved lip synchronization and subtitle rendering. This reduces garbled text, timing drift, and cleanup for localized ads and talking-head content.
Choose how you start: write a scene, animate an image, or guide the model with mixed references.
Start without reference media and direct the scene in writing. Describe the subject, setting, action, camera movement, lighting, pacing, and shot order, then choose a duration of up to 30 seconds in the current generator.
Text to video works best for concepts you want to build from scratch, including cinematic scenes, product ideas, social ads, explainers, and story tests.
Upload an image reference, describe the motion and camera behavior, and generate a moving sequence. The image can guide the subject, product, outfit, environment, composition, or visual style.
Image to video is useful when the first frame or visual identity already matters, such as product ads, fashion showcases, beauty content, avatar videos, and brand visuals.
Combine the prompt with image, video, and audio references, and point to them in the prompt, for example @Image1.
Reference to video works best when you already have assets to follow: a character sheet, a product photo, a motion clip, or an audio track. Use it for ads and scenes that need the same subject, product, camera feel, or rhythm across the clip.
Describe the subject, scene, motion, and camera.
Upload images, video, or audio when the look or motion should follow something you already have.
Create the clip on Topview and export it for the channel you are making it for.
