Keep Multimodal Control While Lowering Credit Spend
Direct with Mixed Media
Use photos, video, and audio to tell the model what must remain recognizable and how the shot should behave.
Let the Frame Follow the Source
Adaptive framing adds an option for source-led composition alongside six explicit aspect ratios.
480p or 720p Output
Use 480p or 720p for boards, social drafts, and internal approvals that do not require a 4K master.
Seedance 2.0 Mini Crew Capabilities
- •Multimodal Briefs: Combine image, video, and audio references so each production cue has a concrete source.
- •Adaptive Aspect Ratio: Let the model follow source geometry or choose one of six fixed compositions.
- •Frame Guidance: Control the opening with a required frame and optionally define the final composition.
- •Flexible Runtime: Set a clip anywhere from 4 through 15 seconds according to the action.
- •Synchronized Sound: Audio is generated with the picture, and reference audio can guide multimodal work.
Generate the Sound Layer with the Picture
Mini can return audible texture with the visual clip, giving reviewers a complete scene rather than a silent motion plate. Use sound cues to establish atmosphere, physical impact, or dialogue timing, then assess both visual rhythm and audio intent.
Put a Still Image into Controlled Motion
Seedance 2.0 Mini supports text prompts plus first frame, last frame, and visual references, helping short clips stay closer to the intended look.

Build Short Ecommerce Video Concepts
Choose 480p or 720p when you need lower-cost motion tests before committing to a final direction. Mini keeps the process fast enough for repeated iteration.
Check Motion Stability Through the Clip
A usable draft needs subjects and scene structure to survive from the opening frame to the last. Mini aims to keep motion readable while preserving the central visual setup. This gives teams a steadier board for internal notes and subsequent iterations.

Questions About Seedance 2.0 Mini
Current input, framing, and delivery details for the Mini generator on Shotyard.
What is Seedance 2.0 Mini?
Seedance 2.0 Mini is ByteDance's 480p and 720p variant of the Seedance 2.0 family. It retains text, image, frame-guided, and mixed-reference workflows.
How does Mini differ from the full Seedance 2.0 tier?
Mini tops out at 720p, while the full model also offers 1080p and 4K. Mini additionally presents an adaptive aspect-ratio option.
What does adaptive aspect ratio do?
Adaptive gives the model a source-led framing choice instead of forcing one fixed ratio. Six explicit ratios remain available when delivery dimensions are known.
How much reference media can I upload?
The workspace accepts up to nine reference images, three reference videos, and three reference audio files. Audio needs accompanying image or video material.
Can Mini generate sound?
Yes. Audio generation is enabled, and multimodal mode can also use uploaded sound as part of the direction.
Which clip lengths are supported?
Choose any duration from 4 to 15 seconds in one-second increments. Give longer clips enough prompt structure to keep the action readable.
Can I guide the start and end?
Yes. Frame mode uses a required opening image and permits an optional closing image to define where the movement should land.
Who can use Seedance 2.0 Mini?
The Mini model is available to eligible members. Sign in to view the required credits for the chosen duration and resolution.
