Made with Seedance 2.5 · Motion study with audio

Original results

## Seedance 2.5 examples made in Made

These examples use media produced for Made. Prompts are included when the production record allows them.

### Motion study with audio

“A night market food stall at rush hour, wok flames flaring, steam rolling through lantern light, sizzling and crowd chatter, handheld camera easing past.”

### Image-to-video

“The wheel spins up, clay rising under wet hands, water flicking, soft workshop ambience.”

### Creative scene

“Storm waves break against a lighthouse, spray bursting over the rail, wind and surf roaring, slow aerial pull-back.”

### Scene brief

“Set the scene as a still before describing motion and sound.”

### Composition brief

“Establish framing and mood, then hand the motion to the model.”

## Where Seedance 2.5 fits best

### Best uses

- Single-pass clips up to 30 seconds
- Scenes where synchronized ambient audio matters
- Animating a still with an optional end frame
- Sequences that would otherwise need stitching

### Limits to know

- It is one of the more expensive per-second models in Made, so draft on a cheaper model and reserve 2.5 for keeper takes.
- Long clips multiply cost and generation time; a 30-second take costs six times a 5-second one.

## How to use Seedance 2.5 in Made

1. **Write the shot with sound**
   Describe subject motion, camera movement, and the ambient audio you want in the clip.
2. **Anchor with images if needed**
   Add a start image — and optionally an end frame — when the composition is already decided.
3. **Choose length deliberately**
   Pick a duration from 4 to 30 seconds; cost scales with every second, so use long takes for keepers.
4. **Review picture and audio**
   Check continuity, motion, and the generated soundtrack before downloading.

## Seedance 2.5 FAQ

Need a specific answer? [Contact support](mailto:support@made.app)

### What makes Seedance 2.5 different?

It generates up to 30 seconds in a single pass with native synchronized audio — the longest single-shot ceiling currently available in Made.

### Does it generate sound?

Yes. Audio is generated natively with the video and is on by default in Made’s configuration.

### Which resolutions are available?

480p, 720p, and 1080p, each at its own per-second rate. Made starts at 480p, the cheapest.

### Can I animate an existing image?

Yes. Add a start image, describe the motion and sound, and optionally add an end frame to guide the final composition.

### Why is it more expensive than other models?

Its price per second is higher than most Made video models, and the price shown before generation is what it costs.

### When should I use Seedance 2.0 or Fast instead?

The 2.0 and 2.0 Fast tiers cost less per second and cover clips up to 15 seconds; both are available in Made when the 30-second ceiling is not needed.
