# Seedance 2.0

## Overview

**Evolution from** [**Seedance 1.5 Pro**](/models/video-models/seedance-1.5-pro.md)**:** Key upgrades include up to 15-second generations, native audio with lip-syncing capabilities in 8+ languages, precise text and graphic animation, and a structured prompt format.

Available in three versions: 

* **Seedance 2.0** (highest quality)
* **Seedance 2.0 Fast** (faster, cheaper — good enough for most use cases)
* **Seedance 2.0 Mini** (an even faster version)

> **Note:** Some content policies are still being progressively rolled out. You may encounter restrictions when using human face references as image inputs.

### Strengths

* **Text & graphic animation**: Animates text, logos, and graphic elements with high fidelity — most video models can't do this.
* **Precise prompt adherence**: Follows structured prompts with timestamps accurately.
* **Native audio & lip-sync**: Phoneme-level lip-sync across 8+ languages. Dialogue, SFX, and music in one pass.
* **Up to 15s generation**: Real narrative development in a single clip.
* **Up to 4K resolution**.

### Ideal use cases

* **Static ad animation**: Turn finished static ads into video with element-by-element text and graphic animation.
* **Motion design**: Kinetic typography, graphic transitions, animated brand assets.
* **Video ads**: Multi-cut product videos with consistent branding across shots.
* **UGC-style content**: Realistic spokesperson videos with multi-angle cuts and natural dialogue.
* **Product explainers**: Detailed human-environment interactions for social content.

#### Weaknesses

* Content policy restrictions on human face references in image inputs (being progressively lifted).
* Character consistency limited for persistent faces across multiple generations.

## How to use effectively

**Be specific — control every detail.** If your prompt is short, Seedance makes creative decisions for you. Specify camera position, describe the opening frame, choreograph the action, define the ending state.

**Use the structured format for complex animations.** For anything with more than two or three moving parts: Task → Overall Motion → Scene → Action (numbered timeline with timestamps).

**Tell it what stays still.** Say "the background remains static" or "all elements hold perfectly still after settling." Seedance tends to keep things drifting unless you explicitly stop it.

**Text animation tips.** Quote text exactly. Stagger multiple text blocks by 0.3–0.5s. Keep motion simple (fade in, slide in, scale in — avoid rotating). Lock text once it lands. End your prompt with a "Final on-screen text" section listing every visible text element.
