Input
Output
videoContent requirements
- Everything is reviewed
The prompt, the reference files and the finished clip all go through content review, picture and sound alike.
- No charge if rejected
A rejected job is not charged; the credits held at submit are refunded in full.
- The finished clip is reviewed again
Some jobs are rejected at submit; others only when the finished clip is reviewed, anywhere from a few minutes to over half an hour later.
- Sound is reviewed too
Spoken lines, narration and lyrics in your prompt are voiced or sung, and reviewed together with the picture. If you need no voices, leave out lines and lyrics. This model always adds a soundtrack; it cannot be turned off. Uploaded reference audio is reviewed as well.
- Commonly rejected
Sexual content or nudity; gore, self-harm and violent injury such as gunshot wounds; firearms, explosives and drugs; minors shown with alcohol, tobacco or in danger; politicians, celebrities and other public figures, in looks or voice (look-alikes included); copyrighted characters.
- One bad shot fails the whole clip
If a single shot in a long storyboard script breaks the rules, the whole clip is rejected. Resubmitting the same input is rejected again; fix that part or replace the reference, then retry.
About Seedance 2.0 Mini

Any integer 5-15 seconds, 480P / 720P, five aspect ratios (16:9 / 9:16 / 1:1 / 4:3 / 3:4), optional generated soundtrack; omit the reference image for text-to-video, include one for image-to-video.

Use cases
Lowest unit price — generate dozens of candidates and pick by hand.
Prove shot list, camera moves and subject consistency here before spending on a higher tier.
Reference images pin down the subject, wardrobe and scene, so product shots and character sheets come alive; name them @Image1 / @Image2 in the prompt and the identity carries through.
How to choose
Pick it when budget or volume comes first. Use seedance-2.0 for more visual headroom or 1080P.
