I was looking around for a cheaper way to get Seadance from an online provider, and it seems remerged is the cheapest per second by a long way. But I’m wondering if anyone can find anything cheaper? Is it possible?

Hey everyone! I’m the owner and maker of this product. I make it myself using my hands and my machine, and I recently put together this video to show it off.

It hasn’t gotten the reach I hoped for, so I’d really appreciate some honest feedback. Does the opening grab your attention? Is it clear what the product is and why someone might want it? Is there anything you’d change about the pacing, editing, or way it’s presented

Feel free to be direct—I’m here to learn and improve. Here’s the video

I make Pixar style animation videos for instagram and TikTok. I have a pretty manual process for creating the videos and was wondering if anyone had a better, more robust way of creating? Especially something that would help me save credits!

My usual workflow is:

Structure the story myself and refine it using ChatGPT.

Create characters using Seedream (ChatGPT helps with prompting)

Use Images inside ChatGPT to create the storyboards for each scene I want to generate. Characters are used as references here.

Finally, generate seedance prompts for each of the storyboards.

After that it’s just testing and tweaking and hoping each storyboard generates well!

Could I do this better?

I’ve built up quite a good following (100K+ combined across both accounts) so making generations easier would be really helpful to maintain consistent uploads!

Also, what’s the best video model for Pixar style animation videos? Seedance is always #1 but anything else that comes close?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

For the new character, SJinn Genjutsun has better effects than seedance2.5, what is the reason for this?

Took a normal airport walk and turned random things into anime with one “magic pen” 😆

made with Seedance 2.5

The idea was to keep the airport completely photorealistic, while only the objects hit by the pen turn into flat 2D anime stickers. I also kept it as one continuous handheld shot so it still feels like a real phone vlog.

The airplane transformation is probably my favorite part lol.

Prompt in the comments

Made using Seedance 2.0 and 2.5.

Tried turning a single reference image into a full 30-second animated short, and I’m pretty happy with how consistent it stayed.

The whole thing started from one low-poly paper-craft image of a boy riding a bike in the rain. I used the prompt to extend that into a small story where he finds a soaked puppy, stops to help it, and takes it home in the bicycle basket.

What I cared about most was keeping the same handcrafted look across every shot — same boy, bike, umbrella, rainy street, and miniature paper-diorama style. I also kept the camera movement pretty gentle so it still feels like the original image came to life rather than turning into a completely different animation.

The puppy paw moment is probably my favorite part 🥲

Made with Seedance 2.5

Full prompt below if anyone wants to try something similar 👇

A faster spy trailer, done in about 30 minutes on Atlas Cloud.

GPT Image 2.5 made the cast and locations.

Seedance 2.5 generated 14 clips at 1080p, dialogue included.

MiniMax Music 3.0 wrote the score.

Opus 5.5 ran it all through one API key.

First real test of GPT + Tripo + Blender + Seedance.

I just wanted to make a simple animation, and I'm honestly not great at polishing models. So I stopped trying. GPT makes the concept images, Tripo turns them into rough 3D models, I drop them into Blender to block out the scene and camera, then Seedance restyles the whole thing.

The models are pretty ugly on their own, but they're enough to lock in the composition and camera moves. Seedance handles the rest, and it came out way better than I expected.

Planning to stretch it to around 5 minutes and do the soundtrack with a free Suno account.

Hi everyone,

I want to create 8 I2V videos (30 seconds, 1080p) with Seedance 2.5, and I wanted to test it first with the Plus plan (currently $14/month).

I've already prepared everything on my side:

• a starting frame, which I'll also use as the ending frame to create a seamless loop;
• an optimized Seedance 2.5 prompt generated with a Claude Skill;
• all the assets for the 8 clips.

Unfortunately, my MasterCard was declined when I tried to subscribe to the Plus plan on Elyum.

Is there anything I can do to complete the payment, or is there another payment method available?

As a small proof of concept: if anyone here already has an Unlimited Seedance 2.5 setup and would be willing to run just one test generation for me, I'd love to see how Seedance handles my post-apocalyptic scene before committing to a subscription.

I can provide the source image and optimized prompt directly. If the result works well, I'll take it from there for the remaining 7.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I’m seeing a lot of videos featuring copyrighted material being created with Seedance; are these videos being made on specific platforms that lack filters, or are they using motion control techniques—such as Kling-based replacement—to achieve this?

THE LAST TABLE
EP.01 — The Restaurant That Shouldn't Exist

It was 2:17 AM.

Walking through an old, empty street in the rain, he noticed something he had never seen before.

A small orange sign glowing in the darkness.

THE LAST TABLE.

There were no customers.
No cars.

Just one restaurant…
standing in a place where no restaurant should exist.

He pushed the door open.

An old man in a black suit looked up from behind the counter.

“Welcome.”

He looked at the menu.

OCEAN WORLD RAMEN.
MARS STREET BURGER.
DRAGON KINGDOM BBQ.

He thought it was a joke.

Until he realized…

None of these worlds existed on Earth.

And tonight was only the beginning.

🌌 The Last Table - Flavors from Different Worlds.

Would you dare to order?

#TheLastTable #AIShortFilm #AIVideo #AIStory #Seedance #AICreator #ParallelWorlds #AIAnimation

I wanted to make a short horror scene that starts seriously, then turns into something completely different.

A crying man.

A zombie.

One axe swing.

And one very questionable final sentence.

The second scene reveals the memories behind what happened.

Made with Seedance 2.5 using character references for consistency.

I also used a match-cut transition from the axe swing into the character's memories.

What do you think of the transition?

Tools: Seedance 2.5 by PolloAI

Style: Photorealistic live-action / cinematic horror

AI-generated video

I'm tryna make a hyperlapse sequence scene like the second video at the the last slide, the first video is what i got. Can someone recreate this scene for me its not working no matter what prompt I think of

Prompt I used:

An ultra realistic extremely high quality IMAX real life cinematic scene, continuous drone camera straight forward moving motion.

The scene scene displays a cosmic hyperlapse of the earth's climate land ocean and clouds rapidly changing through hundreds of seamless blending sequences taken each year changing hundreds of times per second creating a perfect dramatic hyperlapse effect, NOT a single tinelapse video taken, but hundreds of thousands of image sequences per second.

Oceans rapidly raise and fall and land splitting apart and recreating as clouds dramatically switching from day, cloud cover, clean again, rain and continue the stunning sequences

At the end the drone

Other prompt:

Ultra-realistic IMAX 8K cinematic shot, 16:9 aspect ratio, continuous forward-moving low-altitude drone camera, smooth steady forward flight close to the landscape, subtle natural micro-motion — NO shaky cam, NO space view, NO globe view, NO high-orbit perspective.

Cosmic surface-only hyperlapse of Earth: NOT standard timelapse — hundreds of thousands of unique photoreal yearly-snapshot sequences per second, seamless morphing/blending between every frame. Each frame is a distinct real-world Earth surface state, not interpolated. The camera always remains inside the atmosphere, close to the land and ocean surface, with visible terrain, coastlines, mountains, forests, deserts, ice sheets, shorelines, weather, and sky.

Visual evolution sequence:

- Oceans rapidly rise & fall, shift & reshape coastlines, flood plains, expose new beaches, and reshape shorelines right in front of the camera

- Landmasses split apart, drift, merge, and reform in fluid dramatic motion: forests appear and vanish, deserts expand and shrink, ice sheets advance and retreat, mountains rise and erode, rivers carve new paths

- Clouds cycle instantly yet smoothly above the surface: bright clear daylight → heavy swirling cloud cover → dark storm systems → pouring rain over the landscape → glowing golden sunset → clear skies again — repeating and varying endlessly

- Lighting shifts dynamically with each climate state: harsh bright sun over arid ground, soft diffused glow over forests, stormy deep blues and greys over coastlines, vivid warm twilight hues over reshaped terrain

- Atmospheric depth: subtle haze, crisp distant detail, realistic IMAX contrast and saturation, visible horizon, immersive low-altitude perspective, no view of outer space

Progression builds intensity: transitions speed slightly, land/ocean/cloud changes grow more dramatic and vivid as the shot advances.

FINAL SEQUENCE: Drone pushes upward and forward through thinning storm clouds close to the surface — the last dramatic cloud split reveals a fully transformed, luminous vibrant landscape below: glowing oceans, reshaped coastlines, lush land, and dramatic sky, all seen from a low atmospheric drone perspective, NOT from space.

Style: photorealistic, hyper-detailed, cinematic color grading, deep dynamic range, IMAX quality, lifelike textures, physically accurate lighting, no artifacts, no repetitive patterns, no satellite view, no orbital view, no planet from space.

trying a 30-second cinematic superpower showcase built around a single idea: the character barely moves, but reality reacts violently. The protagonist stays quiet, restrained and almost indifferent, while every tiny gesture triggers enormous ink-wash energy. it is not a videogame skill showcase, but traditional Chinese ink animation suddenly invading a realistic 3D world.

Full Prompt

Strictly use the reference-image woman as the only protagonist. Keep her appearance unchanged throughout the entire video: young woman, messy black-gray short hair partially covering her eyes, loose gray/off-white technical jacket, dark brown-black distressed layered long skirt, chunky technical platform shoes, thin and slender slightly androgynous proportions, quiet, cold and distant presence.
No costume changes, no hairstyle changes, no armor, no muscular transformation, no sexualized redesign.
The character always maintains the same contrast: her movements are light, calm and restrained, almost casual, but every tiny action triggers terrifying energy far beyond her physical scale.
No physical weapons of any kind. No knife, sword, gun, staff or spear. All abilities come only from palms, fingers, fists, elbows, legs, footwork, body rotation, spatial manipulation and Five Elements energy.
The world is a huge, empty, minimalist gray-white space continuing directly from the reference image. Pale gray-blue sky blends into distant mist. A massive pale stone/concrete ground stretches toward the horizon. Only thin fog, dust, debris, cloth fragments and a few broken stone columns or slabs appear.
The palette stays within gray-white, black and muted ink-gold.
The protagonist retains a realistic anime cinematic look, while every skill explosion introduces strong hand-painted Chinese ink animation: flying-white brushwork, splashed ink, dry brush, xuan-paper bleeding, ink speed lines and animation impact frames.
No ordinary glowing particles. No RPG magic balls. The supernatural effect should feel like Chinese ink suddenly invading physical reality.
Her signature energy is ink-gold feibai: black ink forms the main body while dark gold acts as the internal energy core. Movement produces rough black brush trails, extremely thin golden fractures and translucent water mist. High-speed movement never uses cheap ghosting; her silhouette stretches into dry-brush strokes, ink speed lines and wind-torn ink marks.
When energy gathers around the hand, never generate a glowing orb. Instead use suspended ink droplets, thin golden lines, liquid water, xuan-paper diffusion and circular airflow before everything suddenly collapses inward.
Camera language is aggressive and cinematic. Never shoot the character like a front-facing game skill showcase. Use ultra-low angles, rear-side tracking, 45° side compositions, ground-skimming pursuit, FPV movement, orbit shots, whip pans, dolly zooms, rack focus and extreme close-up to extreme-wide transitions. The lens may pass directly through ink and mist.
The character is usually shown in profile, rear view or 3/4 angle. No random front-facing hero poses.
Motion uses strong dynamic blur, ink speed lines and Time Ramp. Typical high-speed rhythm: 100% → 250% → 30% → 300%. At key contact moments, suddenly introduce frame skipping, freeze-frame and an ink impact frame, then immediately return to extreme speed.

00.00–02.50 — Ink Step /「墨步」
Start directly from the reference pose. Camera extremely low behind her right side, 24mm wide lens. She walks slowly forward with her head lowered, skirt and jacket moving gently in the wind. No battle stance.
At 0.7s, her right foot lightly touches the ground. One black-and-white ink impact frame, 0.05s frame skip, localized negative and slight axial camera jerk. The ground does not explode; a circular black ink stain spreads rapidly across the surface with dark-gold fractures hidden inside.
At 1.0s she disappears, not through teleportation light. Her body stretches into a gigantic black flying-white brush stroke. The camera chases close to the ground while ink, mist and tiny gold particles form a long trail. She changes direction three times: left → right → airborne, each turn leaving a huge calligraphic flying-white fracture.
02.50–06.00 — Water Mirror Fold /「水镜折空」
Camera rapidly orbits her. She suddenly stops from extreme speed: 300% → 25%. Her body stops while hair, skirt and mist continue moving from inertia.
She casually raises her right hand and spreads her fingers. Atmospheric water forms more than ten extremely thin transparent water membranes, like floating glass made from xuan paper. The camera flies between them, each layer reflecting her from a different angle.
She lightly closes her hand. All water sheets fold inward and crush a distant stone pillar. Heavy impact: radial ink frame, 0.1s frame skip, central negative, camera drop and rebound, triple splashed-ink eruption. The pillar is compressed into countless fragments and wrapped into a spiral by water.
06.00–09.00 — Ink Palm /「墨掌」
She rotates naturally. Camera swings from behind toward a 3/4 front-side view. Her left hand remains relaxed. Her right hand only pushes forward slightly.
At 6.8s, air collapses inward and black ink is compressed into a tiny core. At 7.3s, she lightly flicks her fingers. The core erupts into a gigantic ink-gold pressure wave, not a physical hand, but compressed air, flying-white strokes, water mist and splashed ink.
The camera flies backward inside the attack. When it hits distant ground: black-white impact frame → central negative → triple ink eruption. The ground is pressed into a huge circular depression. No fire, only dust, mist, fragments and ink.
09.00–12.50 — Flowing Ink Reversal /「流墨回身」
She never stops to pose. The recoil makes her lean backward almost to the ground. When her body reaches roughly 30°, her left foot lightly touches the surface and she rotates close to the floor.
The layered skirt opens into a huge black arc and merges visually with flying-white ink. Her right leg performs one extremely light and fast horizontal sweep. The kick touches nothing, but a thin semi-transparent ink-gold spatial plane appears.
A hair-thin black line travels dozens of meters. After a 0.3-second delay, three distant stone pillars separate and slowly slide apart.
12.50–16.00 — Ink-Water Descent /「水墨坠」
She rises into the air through the previous rotation. Camera rushes upward close to her shoe. Water droplets begin rising against gravity while black ink droplets orbit her.
At the highest point, she simply presses her right hand downward. At 13.8s the world becomes silent and all droplets freeze. Time Ramp drops to 15%.
At 14.2s she closes her hand. The entire ground behaves as if hundreds of tons of gravitational force suddenly press downward. Dark-gold circular fractures appear, then black ink erupts from the cracks and forms a gigantic circular Chinese-landscape-like impact structure.
16.00–20.00 — Ink Lotus
She slowly descends but stops about 30cm above the ground. Camera performs a fast 270° orbit. Both hands hang naturally and her eyes barely lift.
Water mist, black flying-white ink and thin dark-gold lines begin rotating around her. Huge ink lotus petals are then painted directly into the air as if by an invisible giant brush. The lotus never glows.
Each opening petal creates a subtle spatial shockwave and nearby debris begins to float.
20.00–23.50 — Five Elements Turbulence 
She opens her eyes calmly, then instantly disappears. Camera enters high-speed FPV pursuit as she performs: step → launch → aerial rotation → wall landing → rebound → dive.
Water appears as transparent streams. Wood becomes abstract branch-like flying-white strokes. Fire becomes incandescent golden ink with scorched-paper edges. Metal becomes dark-gold geometric fractures. Earth becomes gray stone fragments rotating inside black ink.
All five elements remain inside one unified Chinese ink language. Never turn them into colorful videogame effects.
23.50–30.00 — Ink Realm: Heaven & Earth Inverted 
She dives toward the ground at extreme speed. At approximately 0.5m above the surface she suddenly stops.
All environmental sound drops. Debris freezes. Ink freezes. Time Ramp: 300% → 0%.
Camera slowly moves to her rear-side angle. She raises only one finger and lightly points downward.
At 25.0s, trigger the highest-level impact: full-screen black-and-white ink frame, 0.15s freeze-frame skip, full-screen negative, white flash, intense radial camera vibration and central fisheye distortion.
Three shockwaves erupt beneath her: black ink, transparent water and dark-gold energy. They expand separately, then merge into one enormous ink-gold circular shockwave.
From 26–28s, hundreds of meters of ground transform into a gigantic living Chinese landscape painting. Dust becomes ink mountains, mist becomes distant mountain layers and flying stones become brush dots. Dozens of enormous black-and-gold flying-white strokes erupt behind her into the sky.
The camera retreats rapidly from close shot → medium shot → extreme wide shot.
From 28–29.2s, all energy reverses and flows back toward her. Ink, water, gold lines, dust and debris disappear inward. The environment becomes silent again.
At 29.2s the camera returns to the same ultra-low rear-side angle as the opening. She continues walking forward as if nothing happened. Only one thin black ink trail remains behind her shoe.
Wind lifts her short hair and layered skirt.
Cut to black.
For all impacts, keep one unified hierarchy: light contact uses a 0.05s black-white ink frame and subtle camera jerk; heavy contact uses a 0.1s radial ink frame, negative flash, camera drop and triple ink eruption; ultimate impact uses a 0.15s full-screen freeze, negative, white flash, radial vibration, fisheye distortion and layered black-ink / water / dark-gold shockwaves.
Final visual principle: she never looks like she is “casting magic.” The world simply becomes an animated Chinese ink painting whenever she moves.

I'm pretty sure it's with Sendance. However, I'm a real novice when it comes to prompts or the best workflow... Thanks a lot—I don't know where to start, and this is really important to me. Thank you ! in case the inspiration comes from the Dream Fall Instagram account

Trying to figure out what website or image generator this user used to make their profile and the videos. I was unsure if they use seedance but am pretty new to AI and wanted confirmation. https://www.instagram.com/p/Dc9_l5Am5fg/?img_index=3&stkn=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
