AI dance video generator FAQ
Is the AI dance video generator free?
Free every day. Every signed-in account can create one Seedance 2.0 Mini video each day at no cost, with no payment method required. The dance templates on this page are 5 seconds or shorter, so a 5-second dance video fits the daily free video. Longer clips, higher resolutions, and additional videos use credits.
How do I turn a photo into a dance video?
Choose a dance template or upload your own dance clip, add a full-body photo, and generate. The dance clip sets the moves and rhythm; the photo sets who is dancing.
What kind of photo works best?
A sharp, full-body photo of one person facing the camera, against a plain background with even lighting. Cropped, blurry, or crowded photos make it harder to keep the face and outfit consistent.
Can I use my own dance video?
Yes. Upload any dance clip as the reference video. Clips of 5 seconds or less fit the daily free video; longer clips use credits.
Can two people dance together?
Yes. Choose a two-person template such as Waltz or Spin Together, then add one photo of each person.
Can I make a cartoon character, mascot, or toy dance?
Yes. Any clear full-body image of a character can be used. Characters with a human-like body follow the moves most closely.
Can I use a photo of someone else?
Only with that person's permission. Make sure you have the rights to every photo and video you upload, and do not use images of celebrities or other people without consent.
Can I use the dance videos commercially?
It depends on your plan. All annual plans, monthly Standard, Pro, and Max plans, all Team plans, and credit packs from the Creator Pack up include a commercial license. Content created on the free tier, the monthly Basic plan, the Starter Pack, or the Trial Pack is for personal, non-commercial use only.
