# Seedance 2.0 — Prompting & Capabilities Seedance 2.0 (ByteDance Seed team, launched Feb 2026) is a **multimodal audio-video model**: it takes text, images, audio, and video in a single call and generates a 4–15s clip with **native synchronized audio** (dialogue + lip-sync, sound effects, ambient, music) in the same pass. **Core mental model — this drives every decision below:** Seedance 2.0 is a *physics and cinematography simulator you direct like a film crew*, not a mood board you brainstorm with adjectives. It renders physical interactions ("tires smoke as the car pivots on wet asphalt") and directorial language ("slow dolly-in", "golden-hour rim light"). It does **not** render vague adjectives ("cinematic", "epic", "amazing"). Write shot directions, not vibes. ## Capabilities at a glance | Mode | Input | Use it for | |------|-------|-----------| | **Text-to-video (T2V)** | prompt only | Generating a scene from scratch | | **Image-to-video (I2V)** | 1 start image + prompt | Animating an existing still | | **First-and-last frame** | 2 images (`first_frame`+`last_frame`) + prompt | Controlled transitions / reveals / before-after | | **Reference-to-video (R2V)** | 1–9 images + ≤3 videos + ≤3 audio (max 12 files) + prompt | Character/style/motion/object consistency, voice, "omni" composition | | **Multi-shot** | prompt with a shot list / timeline | A short narrative (up to ~6 shots) in one 15s generation | | **Video-extend** | prior clip + prompt | Continuing past 15s by
