The neural network can be fed an image, video, audio, or text as a reference to create a clip.

“Set the visual style with a picture, define character movements and camera angles using video, create rhythm and atmosphere by uploading a few seconds of audio. Combine all of this with prompts to make the creative process natural, efficient, and truly director-like,” the company announced.

Seedance 2.0 is available in the Chinese version of the Dreamina service. Access can be obtained through a Douyin (local TikTok) account. By the end of February, the model will be available in CapCut, Higgsfield, Imagine.Art, and other third-party services.

Users who tested the neural network noted its high director and editor skills, as well as “incredibly natural, almost professional” transitions between frames.

“There are features that seem illegal: you upload a script, and the program generates scenes (not just clips) with visual and sound effects, voices, music — all beautifully edited,” emphasized user el.cine.

Recall that in February, Chinese developer Kuaishou introduced the third version of its video generation model, Kling AI.
