How Text to Video Works
- Step 1
Write your scene
Describe subject, action, camera movement, style, and mood in plain text. The more specific your prompt, the more predictable the output.
- Step 2
Choose duration and format
Pick the duration supported by your model, choose an aspect ratio (16:9, 9:16, or 1:1), and set the resolution. Use Seedance 2.0 Standard for the widest duration range and Fast mode for quicker drafts.
- Step 3
Generate and download
Click Generate — your clip renders in under a minute. Download it or use it as a starting point for further iteration.

Text to Video — Frequently Asked Questions
- What is text-to-video AI?
- Text-to-video AI converts a written scene description into a short video clip. You describe the subject, action, camera movement, and visual style in plain text — the model renders the video without requiring any footage or editing software.
- How do I write an effective text-to-video prompt?
- Structure your prompt in order: subject → action → camera movement → visual style → lighting → mood. Keep one clear objective per clip. For example: "A red sports car accelerates through a rain-soaked tunnel, low-angle tracking shot, cinematic teal-orange grade, motion blur."
- How long does text-to-video generation take?
- Most clips render in under 60 seconds. Seedance 2.0 Standard supports 4–15 second outputs, while Fast supports 4, 8, and 12 second outputs. Longer or high-motion prompts may take slightly more time.
- What aspect ratios are supported for text-to-video?
- You can generate in 16:9 (landscape, ideal for YouTube and desktop), 9:16 (vertical, ideal for TikTok and Reels), and 1:1 (square, ideal for Instagram). Seedance 2.0 Standard supports up to 1080p, while Seedance 2.0 Fast supports up to 720p.
- Can I use text-to-video output commercially?
- Yes. Paid plans include commercial usage rights. Generated clips can be used in ads, client projects, landing pages, and social content. Check the pricing page for plan details.
- What is the difference between text-to-video and image-to-video?
- Text-to-video generates a clip entirely from a written description — no source footage needed. Image-to-video animates an existing still image you upload. Use text-to-video for creative concept exploration; use image-to-video when you need to bring a specific visual to life.
