Native audio and lip-sync in one render

Seedance 1.5 Pro generates voices, ambience, music, and video together instead of adding sound later. That makes dialogue scenes feel tighter because mouth movement, facial expression, and sound timing are created as one event.

  • Dialogue, effects, and music render together
  • Speech timing tracks mouth movement closely
  • Facial emotion reads better in close-ups
  • Useful for talking heads and short dramas
  • Less cleanup than separate dubbing workflows

Multilingual dialogue that feels native

This is one of the clearest reasons people pick Seedance 1.5 Pro. It keeps spoken delivery and mouth shapes aligned across multiple languages, which helps localized ads, explainers, and character scenes feel less dubbed and more native.

  • Strong fit for English, Mandarin, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish
  • Commonly exposed with Portuguese and Indonesian too
  • Some platforms also support Chinese dialects
  • Useful for localized marketing and explainers
  • Better for speech-led scenes than silent-first workflows

Cinematic camera moves with shot flow

The model responds well to directed shot language like push-ins, tracking moves, close-ups, and dolly-zoom style prompts. That gives short clips a more intentional, storyboarded feel than generic motion alone.

  • Understands pan, tilt, zoom, truck, and orbit prompts
  • Handles close-ups, wide shots, and push-ins
  • Works well for promos, trailers, and drama beats
  • Can carry multi-shot ideas in one prompt
  • Keeps motion and framing aligned with the scene

Reference-image control for consistent scenes

You can start from text alone or add a reference image when character or product continuity matters. Combined with faster iteration than earlier Seedance releases, it is practical for refining branded, portrait, and dialogue-led scenes.

  • Supports text-to-video and image-to-video
  • Keeps faces, styling, and framing more stable
  • Useful for portraits, avatars, and product shots
  • Practical for repeated prompt refinements
  • Good for animating a still into a short scene

How it works

Describe the scene and sound
1

Describe the scene and sound

Write the subject, action, setting, camera move, and audio you want. If the clip includes speech, put the exact line in quotes and specify the language, tone, or pace.

Add a reference image if needed
2

Add a reference image if needed

Start from text for a fresh scene, or upload a first frame when appearance consistency matters. For a guided transition, use first and last frames to define how the shot begins and ends.

Set format and generate

Choose aspect ratio, resolution, and clip length, then run a draft if you want a quick preview. When the motion and timing look right, render the full clip and download it.

Frequently asked questions

What is Seedance 1.5 Pro?
Seedance 1.5 Pro is ByteDance's short-form video model for joint audio-video generation. People usually choose it for native audio, multilingual lip-sync, and more directed cinematic camera control.
How does Seedance 1.5 Pro work?
It generates sound and visuals together from the same prompt rather than adding audio as a later pass. That keeps speech, ambience, and on-screen motion timed as one clip, which is why talking shots feel more natural.
What inputs does Seedance 1.5 Pro accept?
Text prompts are standard, and image-to-video is commonly available when you want a face, product, or composition to carry into the clip. Some platforms expose extra reference controls, but text and reference images are the main workflows most users rely on.
Does Seedance 1.5 Pro support audio?
Yes. It can generate dialogue, music, ambience, and sound effects natively, which is the main reason it stands out from silent-first video models.
Which languages does Seedance 1.5 Pro support?
Supported options vary by platform, but Seedance 1.5 Pro is widely used for English, Mandarin, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Portuguese, and Indonesian, plus some Chinese dialects. If multilingual lip-sync is your priority, this is one of its strongest use cases.
What resolutions and clip lengths does Seedance 1.5 Pro support?
Most implementations focus on short clips, commonly around 4 to 12 seconds, with support up to 1080p. Many platforms export standard MP4 files, and longer videos are usually built by stitching several generations together.
How much does Seedance 1.5 Pro cost?
Pricing usually scales with clip length, resolution, and whether you render native audio. On BudgetPixel, longer 1080p dialogue clips will use more credits than short preview tests.
Is Seedance 1.5 Pro good for long videos?
It works best as a short scene generator, not a long-form editor. The usual workflow is to create several tight clips with matching prompts or reference images, then assemble the winners into a longer piece.
Seedance 1.5 Pro vs Seedance 2.0: which should I choose?
Pick Seedance 1.5 Pro when native audio, dialogue, and multilingual lip-sync are the deciding factors. Move to newer Seedance models when you need broader multimodal reference or editing workflows more than speech-led short clips.
Can I use Seedance 1.5 Pro commercially?
Commercial use depends on the platform and plan you generate through, not just the model name. Check the current usage terms before shipping client work, paid ads, or resale content.
Does SeeDance 1.5 Pro have an API?
Yes — SeeDance 1.5 Pro is available through the BudgetPixel developer API via the `POST /v1/videos/seedance-1.5-pro` endpoint, supporting text-to-video, and image-to-video. Generate an API key from the developer console (available on Premium plans and above) and see the full reference at docs.budgetpixel.com.
How much does the SeeDance 1.5 Pro API cost?
API usage is billed in credits from the same balance your plan includes, at the standard metered rate: 40 credits/second at 480p, 60 credits/second at 720p, 120 credits/second at 1080p. Failed generations are never charged. You can estimate any request's exact cost with POST /v1/cost before running it.
Can I use SeeDance 1.5 Pro with Claude or other AI agents (MCP)?
Yes — SeeDance 1.5 Pro is exposed through the BudgetPixel MCP server, so Claude, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible agent can generate with it from a plain-language request. Connect your account at budgetpixel.com/mcp; generations use the same credit balance and pricing as the web studio and the API.
