What is Seedance?
Seedance is ByteDance's video generation model family. Seedance 2.0 and 2.5 turn text and reference images into short video shots and are widely used for AI short drama because of their motion quality and character consistency.

Seedance makes the shot; the episode needs more
Seedance 2.0 and 2.5 are among the strongest shot models for short drama, but a shot is not an episode. DramaSo turns a script into beats and shots, keeps the cast consistent, lets you hear the dialogue first, renders each shot with the Seedance version you choose, and exports a captioned vertical cut.

Features
Seedance for the shots, DramaSo for the episode
Seedance renders strong individual shots. A short drama also needs a script broken into beats, a cast that stays the same, dialogue, captions and a vertical edit. DramaSo does that part and sends each shot to the Seedance version you pick.
Five Seedance versions
Seedance 2.5 (1080p), Seedance 2.0 (720p), 2.0 Fast, 2.0 Mini for cheap drafts, and 2.0 4K for native 3840×2160 hero shots.
Merged multi-shot clips
Clip mode merges adjacent shots into one Seedance multi-reference clip of up to 15 seconds, so a beat plays as one continuous take.
Hear it before you render
The episode plays as dialogue audio first. Seedance credits are spent only on shots for an episode that already works.
Not locked to one model
Seedance is one option in the same picker. Switch a shot to Kling O3, MiniMax H3, Veo 3.1 or Wan 3.0 when another model fits it better.
Price before every render
The credit cost of each shot shows before it runs, per model and resolution.
Same cast across episodes
Character references carry from shot to shot and episode to episode, whichever model renders them.
Native 9:16 with captions
Export a vertical MP4 with captions burned into the safe zone for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.
