Seedance 2.5 examples made on Cicadas
A paper city starts to move.
A red paper tram crosses a cardboard city as the windows light up, with mechanical rattling and rustling in the recorded audio.
Use this recipe ↗A handcrafted island wakes up.
Seedance animates the supplied island with cloud and water movement. This earlier audio example includes soft instrumental music and wind-like ambience; compare it with the separate silent test.
Use this recipe ↗A paper waterfall starts to flow.
A four-second silent image-to-video test. The cottage stays recognizable while the waterfall stretches downward. Fine texture softens at 480p; this is not a seamless loop.
Use this recipe ↗A quiet jewelry lighting study.
A four-second, 720p silent Seedance test of an original ring illustration. Motion is deliberately subtle. Review your own product details before publishing.
Use this recipe ↗A blink. A little curiosity.
A four-second silent Seedance test: the kitten blinks and tilts its head while its paws stay planted. Fine fur detail softens and the framing shifts slightly. Compare the source before trying your own pet.
Use this recipe ↗The road into the city
A high tracking shot follows an unbranded coupe along a wet coastal road. Near foliage and the guardrail move faster than the distant city. Four seconds, 720p, silent.
Use this recipe ↗Meet the moment
A camera ahead of an unbranded coupe tracks backward as the car approaches. Wet reflections and roadside objects establish depth. Four seconds, 720p, silent.
Use this recipe ↗A world beyond the bend
A tunnel and coastal skyline frame the next bend. The generated camera stays closer to the car than the wider crane reveal requested. Four seconds, 720p, silent.
Use this recipe ↗A clay fox wakes up.
Seedance 2.5 at 480p with audio on — the model family behind Jimeng’s video tools, run independently here. The audio is gentle background music.
