Introducing ByteDance Seedance V1 Pro T2V 1080p on WaveSpeedAI

ByteDance Seedance V1 Pro Arrives on WaveSpeedAI: The New Standard in AI Video Generation

The landscape of AI-powered video generation has just shifted. ByteDance’s Seedance V1 Pro—the model that currently sits atop both text-to-video and image-to-video leaderboards—is now available on WaveSpeedAI. This flagship video generation model brings cinematic-quality 1080p output, native multi-shot storytelling, and industry-leading motion quality to developers and creators through our high-performance inference API.

What is Seedance V1 Pro?

Seedance 1.0 represents ByteDance’s first-generation video foundation model, designed from the ground up to generate high-definition videos from text prompts. Unlike models that focus purely on simulation, Seedance positions itself as a “director”—understanding cinematic terminology like “rack focus” or “noir lighting” directly within your prompts and translating them into professionally composed video sequences.

The model leverages a sophisticated Time-causal VAE combined with a decoupled spatio-temporal Transformer architecture. This technical foundation, enhanced with video-specific RLHF (Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback), delivers exceptional results across three critical dimensions: prompt accuracy, motion realism, and visual aesthetics.

In benchmark evaluations, Seedance 1.0 has demonstrated remarkable performance. On SeedVideoBench-1.0, ByteDance’s proprietary test suite of 300 prompts, the model achieves an average score of 4.7/5 for prompt fidelity and motion fluidity. In blind studies, human raters preferred Seedance outputs 62% of the time over competing models, specifically citing superior shot transitions and more coherent storytelling.

Key Features

Native 1080p Resolution at 24 FPS Every video generated by Seedance V1 Pro delivers full HD quality with rich textures and color depth. The 24 frames-per-second output matches traditional cinematic standards, making generated content suitable for professional production workflows.

Multi-Shot Narrative Generation What truly sets Seedance apart is its native support for multi-shot video generation. The model maintains consistency in subjects, visual style, and atmosphere across shot transitions—handling temporal and spatial shifts between scenes while preserving narrative coherence. This means you can describe a complete scene with multiple camera angles, and Seedance will generate cohesive footage that feels “directed” rather than random.

Wide Dynamic Range Motion From subtle facial expressions to large-scale action sequences, Seedance handles the full spectrum of motion with exceptional stability. Complex multi-agent interactions maintain physical realism, and camera movements like pans, accelerations, and slow-downs are executed naturally.

Superior Prompt Understanding The model parses natural language descriptions effectively, with stable control over camera movements and positioning. Whether you’re requesting photorealism, cyberpunk aesthetics, illustration styles, or felt textures, Seedance interprets stylistic prompts accurately while maintaining cinematic quality throughout.

10x Faster Inference ByteDance achieved a breakthrough in efficiency by distilling a large teacher model down to a more compact student model. The result is a 10x inference speedup compared to prior systems—generating 5 seconds of 1080p video in approximately 41 seconds. This makes Seedance 2-4x faster than many competing solutions.

Real-World Use Cases

Social Media Content Creation Marketing teams and content creators can produce high-fidelity short narrative content—social media spots, product showcases, and brand stories—with guaranteed 1080p quality and multi-shot coherence. Describe your vision in natural language, and Seedance delivers broadcast-ready footage.

Film and Animation Prototyping Pre-visualization and concept development become dramatically faster. Directors and producers can test scene ideas, explore visual styles, and develop storyboards with actual video output rather than static images or descriptions.

Educational and Documentary Content Complex concepts and historical events can be visualized with photorealistic quality. The model’s ability to maintain consistency across shots makes it ideal for creating engaging educational sequences.

Commercial Video Production From product demonstrations to corporate communications, Seedance generates professional-grade video content that integrates seamlessly into existing production pipelines. The model’s understanding of lighting, composition, and camera work produces results that require minimal post-production.

Fantasy and Creative Visualization Concept artists and creative professionals can bring imaginative worlds to life. Seedance’s diverse style support—spanning photorealism to surreal aesthetics—enables visualization of scenes that would otherwise require extensive CGI work.
