Seedance 2.5 R2V green screen and white-model reference control

R2V Reference Motion Control

Upload green screen footage or white-model (clay render) references to precisely direct character movement, spatial positioning, multi-character interactions, and scene blocking. Seedance 2.5 follows structured motion paths instead of relying on text alone, making complex scenes production-ready.

Seedance 2.5 multimodal reference inputs up to 50

Up to 50 Multimodal References

Combine text prompts, scripts, character photos, product images, video clips, music tracks, style guides, and storyboards—up to 50 inputs in any mix. Lock character identity, product appearance, visual style, camera pacing, and emotional tone for zero visual drift.

Native Synchronized Stereo Audio

Produce video and stereo audio together in one generation pass—ambient sound, synchronized sound effects, rhythm-aligned music cues, and lip-sync direction for dialogue. No random subtitles or unwanted background music; clean output ready for your sound design.

Intelligent Edit Mode

Edit specific timestamps, characters, objects, or visual regions without regenerating the entire clip. Replace props, adjust expressions, refine lighting at a single moment—all while preserving surrounding footage's lighting, composition, motion, audio, and continuity.

Professional Camera Control

Direct dolly shots, crane moves, dynamic tracking, pans, tilts, and zooms with 3D camera blockouts and performance blocking. Define camera paths and actor staging with precision usually reserved for 3D animation pipelines.
