📄 About Seedance 2.0 Mini Reference to Video

Seedance 2.0 Mini Reference to Video is the multimodal entry in the Seedance 2.0 Mini family. Drop up to 9 reference images, 3 reference videos, and 3 reference audio clips, then describe the scene by tagging your references as @Image1, @Video1, @Audio1 etc. The model composes these inputs into a 4–15 second cinematic video with synchronized native audio. Mini is the right pick when your concept needs more than a single image to communicate — character + environment + motion style, or product + audio brand cue — but you don't want the full Pro tier's cost. The same intuitive @reference syntax used in Pro applies here, so prompts portable across tiers. For maximum quality and longest durations, use the standard <a href="/model/seedance-2-0-reference-to-video">Seedance 2.0 Reference to Video</a>. For cheapest iteration, use <a href="/model/seedance-2-0-fast-reference-to-video">Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference to Video</a>.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, but every uploaded reference will influence the output to some degree. For sharper control, only upload the references you actually reference in the prompt.

Audio references seed the model's audio output — mood, tempo, ambient texture. Note: reference audio cannot be used without at least one image or video reference.
