Use @Video 1 as the source adult woman’s portrait performance. Reinterpret the footage as flat-color cartoon animation with clean outlines, restrained shading, and a simple coherent palette. Follow the existing facial movement, head direction, framing, and background arrangement. Create a five-second interpretation without adding new gestures, extra subjects, camera changes, or written captions.
Introduction
What Is Seedance 2.0 Mini?
Seedance 2.0 Mini is a ByteDance video model variant with its own text, image, and reference generation endpoints on fal.
A distinct set of generation routes
Seedance 2.0 Mini accepts descriptions, starting images with optional ending images, and multimodal references through separate routes. Its official schemas include generated audio and four-to-fifteen-second clips. Seedance 2.0 Mini lets you establish a scene in different ways: invent its appearance, begin with a chosen composition, or give supplied media specific roles in the movement.
A bounded workspace for visual exploration
H3 Max offers Seedance 2.0 Mini at 480p and 720p, with text, image, and reference modes and an audio option. Reference mode permits nine images, three videos, and three audio clips within twelve files overall. Select a question to explore, such as whether a reveal is legible or an approach feels abrupt, before building a collection of candidate shots.
How to use
How to Use Seedance 2.0 Mini
- Input
Reference image 1STEP 1Define the study
Select Seedance 2.0 Mini and choose text, image, or reference mode. Decide which movement or visual relationship the clip should help you evaluate before adding more detail.
- Example settingsSeedance 2.0 Mini480p6sPromptOutputSTEP 2
Prepare the guidance
Write the action for Seedance 2.0 Mini. Add opening and optional ending frames in image mode, or assign roles to a reference collection that fits the twelve-file total.
- Illustrative preview
BeforeAfterOnly the lamp tilts; its pool of light moves onto the map. Keep the rest of the scene still.
STEP 3Set duration and sound
Choose four to fifteen seconds, 480p or 720p output, and the audio setting. Review the Seedance 2.0 Mini configuration and displayed credits before you submit the request.
- STEP 4
Compare against the question
Watch the Seedance 2.0 Mini study at normal speed and inspect its sound separately. Keep useful decisions, identify the main failure, and adjust that one factor in the next version.
Features
Test a Specific Movement with Seedance 2.0 Mini
A useful Seedance 2.0 Mini text brief asks a concrete visual question instead of requesting a polished production without direction.
Choose what the Seedance 2.0 Mini study should test
Consider a small desk lamp illuminating a folded map. One study might test whether a slow lateral move reveals the light pattern clearly; another might hold the camera while the lamp tilts. Give Seedance 2.0 Mini only the movement being tested. Tell Seedance 2.0 Mini what remains stationary, and keep the subject, surface, and lighting description stable enough for the difference to be visible.
Judge what the movement communicates
An attractive clip is not automatically the right answer to the brief. Ask whether the viewer can identify the object, follow the action, and understand its result. With Seedance 2.0 Mini, a short test can expose an overcomplicated idea before you build a longer sequence around it. Describe the intended effect in plain language, and remove flourishes that distract from the question you are exploring.
Reuse a Clear Reference Set in Seedance 2.0 Mini
Keep the reference collection for Seedance 2.0 Mini small enough that each image, video, or audio clip has a visible purpose.
Carry the same subject into each study
Use a consistent subject image across related tests, then introduce a separate visual reference only when it adds necessary information. A lighting picture should establish lighting, not replace the main object. Seedance 2.0 Mini benefits from an unambiguous instruction about these roles. Write which features to retain and which movement to borrow, and avoid references that quietly contradict the proportions or environment you want to keep.
Count the complete Seedance 2.0 Mini reference set
The twelve-file total applies across media types. For example, eight images, two videos, and two audio clips fit the Seedance 2.0 Mini allowance; nine images plus three videos plus three audio clips do not. Audio references need at least one image or video. Remove redundant files before a Seedance 2.0 Mini request and follow the workspace checks for media compatibility as well as quantity.
Give Seedance 2.0 Mini a Beginning and Destination
Image mode lets Seedance 2.0 Mini start from an existing arrangement and, when useful, move toward an optional last frame.
Start from a meaningful composition
The opening image should already show the relationships the viewer needs: the lamp above the map, the pool of light, and the edge of the desk. Ask Seedance 2.0 Mini for motion that develops that arrangement rather than replacing it. Specify the main change and the elements that must stay recognizable. Inspect Seedance 2.0 Mini output for unintended shifts in the object or supporting surface.
Define a Seedance 2.0 Mini destination with the last frame
Choose a last frame that answers where the movement should finish. A small change in viewpoint can be enough to test a reveal without demanding a dramatic scene transformation. With Seedance 2.0 Mini, describe the connecting action rather than treating the images as self-explanatory. Check that the middle of the video remains coherent; two plausible endpoints do not guarantee a plausible transition between them.
Choose the Sound Direction for Seedance 2.0 Mini
Enable sound when it helps evaluate the idea, or keep Seedance 2.0 Mini output silent for a separate audio treatment.
Match a sound to the action under review
A quiet switch click or a gentle mechanical movement may be all the scene needs. Ask Seedance 2.0 Mini for the sound that belongs to the visible event, with a restrained background. For dialogue, keep the line short and the speaker clear. Listen for whether the sound supports the motion instead of assuming that a pleasant soundtrack makes the underlying visual concept more effective.
Review picture and sound as separate decisions
First watch whether the action reads; then listen for distracting effects, unrequested music, or words that do not match the brief. Seedance 2.0 Mini audio generation should be checked just as carefully as its imagery. A silent Seedance 2.0 Mini take may be more appropriate when the final sequence requires a consistent recorded voice or a soundtrack you will arrange outside the generation workspace.
Build a Reviewable Seedance 2.0 Mini Study
Choose a duration and output size that let Seedance 2.0 Mini answer the creative question without unnecessary scene complexity.
Use the available time deliberately
Four to fifteen seconds can accommodate a quick change of state or a slower reveal. Give Seedance 2.0 Mini enough time for the important event to register, but do not add extra actions merely to fill the duration. A brief opening pause and a settled finish can make evaluation easier. Review Seedance 2.0 Mini at normal speed before deciding that a few appealing frames represent a successful clip.
Compare a small number of clear alternatives
At 480p or 720p, inspect framing, object stability, and the action at the intended display size. Preserve the source images and prompt for comparison. Check the Seedance 2.0 Mini credits before each request, and change one factor such as movement speed or light direction. Keep the alternative that answers the original question rather than collecting variations without a decision.
Example prompts
Text: test a light reveal
Create a six-second motion study of a small cream desk lamp above a folded paper map on a dark wooden desk. The lamp tilts slightly so its pool of light reveals the map's center. Keep the camera steady and every other object still. Soft mechanical movement and quiet room ambience. No readable labels, extra props, dialogue, or scene changes.
Image: a measured change of viewpoint
Use the supplied first and last images as endpoints for an eight-second shot. Move gently from the opening viewpoint toward the ending composition, keeping the desk lamp, map, and supporting desk recognizable. Preserve the lamp shape and paper folds. Avoid new objects or dramatic lighting changes. Finish with a short still hold. Subtle room tone without speech.
Reference: carry a subject into a motion test
Use @Image1 for the lamp and desk arrangement, and @Video1 only for the slow sideways camera movement. Generate one ten-second shot with the same lamp silhouette and warm light. Do not copy the reference video's objects or location. Keep the desk stationary and the map on its surface. Quiet room ambience, no dialogue or added text.

EveryGen AI creator reviews
I made a full character PV for my game with MiniMax H3 in one afternoon. The menu UI stayed readable in every frame and the character never went off-model. That used to cost me a contractor and three weeks.
We tested every AI video generator on the market for stylized work. H3 is the only one that held our anime style across cuts. We now use it for pitch reels and animatics on every project.
I uploaded four product photos and got a listing video with music and a voiceover the same day. My click-through rate on the new listings is up 38%. H3 even got the label text on my packaging right.
I ship five vertical videos a week for three brands. MiniMax H3 gets me from brief to draft in under an hour, with sound already synced. My old workflow needed a videographer and two review rounds.
The editing side is what sold me. A client wanted the background of an interview changed — I typed one sentence into MiniMax H3 and the lighting on the subject matched the new scene automatically.
I previsualized my entire short film in MiniMax H3 before we shot a single frame. Rack focus, match cuts, even the title cards — it understands director language, not just keywords.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What can I provide to Seedance 2.0 Mini?
Choose a text description, an opening image with an optional ending frame, or a reference collection. Reference mode accepts images, videos, and audio. The appropriate route depends on whether you need to invent, animate, or guide the scene.
What resolutions are available?
Seedance 2.0 Mini offers 480p and 720p on H3 Max. This page does not offer 1080p or 4K generation. Review the clip for usable motion and composition instead of expecting an output-size choice to repair the scene.
How long is a Seedance 2.0 Mini video?
Choose a duration from four to fifteen seconds. Use a shorter clip for a simple action and allow more time for a gradual reveal. The prompt should describe what happens during the selected duration, not simply ask for more movement.
How does the twelve-file reference limit work?
Seedance 2.0 Mini allows at most nine images, three videos, and three audio clips, but the combined collection cannot exceed twelve files. You cannot use all three category maximums simultaneously. Audio references must accompany an image or video.
Can Seedance 2.0 Mini use two endpoint images?
Yes. Supply a first frame in image mode and optionally add the intended last frame. Describe the transition between them. Use the separate reference mode for multiple images that define identity, materials, or style rather than start and finish.
Is generated audio compulsory?
No. Seedance 2.0 Mini includes an audio option, so you can request sound or generate a silent clip. Describe relevant audible events when sound is enabled, and review the result for unwanted speech or distracting effects.
How do I budget a Seedance 2.0 Mini study?
Check the workspace credits for the current settings and inputs before submission. Keep each experiment focused on a specific question, and review its result before requesting another variation. No fixed price or completion time is promised here.
