Try Seedance 2.0 Fast - Image to Video in the Workbench

Run this model interactively, tune parameters, and compare outputs.

Model ID: bytedance-seedance-2-0-fast-image-to-video

ByteDance Seedance 2 Fast image-to-video animates a starting frame from a text motion prompt, with optional end-frame control for transitions. This is the enterprise fast tier with lower latency and cost. It supports 480p, or 720p output, durations from 4–15 seconds or automatic length from the prompt, multiple aspect ratios (including auto from the input image), and synchronized audio (effects, ambience, and lip-synced speech).

Example request

Use the Workbench as a request builder: configure parameters for this model in the UI, then open the API tab to copy the exact cURL or Python call.

Sync

This blocks until the video is ready (typically 5-15 minutes). Prefer Async or Async with SSE for anything beyond quick experimentation.

See the video generation reference for more details.

Request parameters

Required parameters

Field	Type	Default	Description
prompt	string	—	The text prompt describing the desired motion and action for the video.
input_image	string	—	The URL of the starting frame image to animate. Supported formats: JPEG, PNG, WebP. Max 30 MB. Format: uri.

Optional parameters

Field	Type	Default	Description
tail_image_url	string	—	The URL of the image to use as the last frame of the video. When provided, the generated video will transition from the starting image to this ending image. Supported formats: JPEG, PNG, WebP. Max 30 MB. Format: uri.
resolution	string	"720p"	Video resolution - 480p for faster generation, 720p for better quality. One of: 480p, 720p.
duration	string	"auto"	Duration of the video in seconds. Supports 4 to 15 seconds, or auto to let the model decide based on the prompt. One of: auto, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15.
aspect_ratio	string	"auto"	The aspect ratio of the generated video. Use 16:9 for landscape, 9:16 for portrait/vertical, 1:1 for square, 21:9 for ultrawide cinematic, or auto to infer from the input image. One of: auto, 21:9, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, 9:16.
generate_audio	boolean	true	Whether to generate synchronized audio for the video, including sound effects, ambient sounds, and lip-synced speech. The cost of video generation is the same regardless of whether audio is generated or not.
seed	integer	—	Random seed for reproducibility. Note that results may still vary slightly even with the same seed.
