AI Reference to Video Generator
Upload multiple reference images to guide Seedance 2.0's video output. The AI uses your references for character appearance, scene style, and composition while generating new video content.
Use Reference Images to Guide Video Generation
Upload one or more reference images and Seedance 2.0 picks up on visual cues — character faces, clothing, environments, color palettes — and carries them into the generated video.
Standard text to video can't guarantee what a character looks like. Reference to video on Seedance 2.0 solves that. Upload a face photo and the generated character matches that appearance. Upload a scene reference and the video inherits that mood and style. You can combine multiple references — one for the subject, another for the background, a third for the overall aesthetic.
Multi-Reference Input for Precise Control
Seedance 2.0 supports multiple reference images in a single generation. Set one image as the character reference and another as the style or scene reference.
This is where Seedance 2.0's reference to video really stands out. Most tools accept one reference at best. Seedance 2.0 lets you layer multiple inputs so the AI understands both who should be in the scene and what the scene should look like. It's the closest thing to a creative brief that AI video generation currently offers.
