Seedance 2.5 is a video creation model from ByteDance Seed designed to move AI video generation from short clips toward complete creative works. Built on the multimodal audio-video joint-generation architecture introduced with Seedance 2.0, the model focuses on foundational generation, reference-based generation, long-form storytelling, and editing control. Seedance 2.5 can generate up to 30 seconds of high-quality audio-video content in one pass and supports multiple rounds of extension. This allows users to create multi-minute videos while maintaining consistency across characters, environments, shot transitions, pacing, motion, and sound. The model supports up to 30 image references, 10 video references, and 10 audio references in a single generation request. It can preserve visual composition, characters, props, voices, scene style, motion paths, and creative intent across complex multi-subject videos. Editing capabilities include timestamp-level changes, green screen workflows, camera perspective editing, reference-based editing, and targeted modifications to characters, actions, or plot elements. Seedance 2.5 is rolling out through Jimeng AI and Doubao Pro, with API access planned through BytePlus ModelArk. By combining long-form generation, multimodal references, cinematic quality, synchronized audio-video output, and professional editing control, Seedance 2.5 helps creators produce more coherent and polished AI videos.
