ExamplesView all

Use the florist from <Image 1> and the blue bicycle from <Image 2>. Preserve his exact face, hairstyle, apron, clothing, and bouquet. Preserve the bicycle’s blue frame, wicker basket, cream saddle, bell, and flower charm. The opening frame is a clean medium-wide shot of the florist standing beside the bicycle outside his flower shop. The bouquet rests inside the front basket. He turns toward the shop for one moment. A young woman passing by accidentally takes the bicycle, thinking it is hers. He turns back and watches her ride away with his bouquet. She notices the flowers, stops, and looks back. He raises both hands in disbelief, then starts laughing. The camera begins with a stable side composition, tracks gently with the bicycle as she rides away, then settles into a long-lens two-shot as they notice each other. Playful romantic comedy, bright natural light, clear visual storytelling, cinematic timing.

Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo API — Quick start

Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/bytedance/seedance-2.0-fast/reference-to-video-turbo with your input as JSON. The endpoint returns a prediction id. Start polling the result endpoint around every 2 seconds, increase the interval for long-running tasks, and stop on any terminal status. On completed, read output values from data.outputs. Examples for Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo below.

Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo API — Frequently asked questions

What is the Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo API?

Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo is a ByteDance model for reference-guided video generation, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. Seedance 2.0 Fast Turbo Reference to Video creates cinematic videos with native audio from your own reference images, videos, and audio, keeping characters, products, motion, and sound consistent while a prompt directs the new shot. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.

How do I call the Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo API?

POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID. Poll the result endpoint starting around every 2 seconds, increase the interval for long-running tasks, and stop on any terminal status. The playground generates Python, JavaScript, and cURL examples for submitting requests and polling results. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/bytedance/bytedance-seedance-2.0-fast-reference-to-video-turbo.

How much does Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo cost per run or per second?

Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo starts at $0.12 per run or per second. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.

What inputs does Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo accept?

Key inputs: `prompt`, `aspect_ratio`, `resolution`, `duration`, `reference_images`, `enable_web_search`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/bytedance/bytedance-seedance-2.0-fast-reference-to-video-turbo.

How do I get started with the Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo API?

Sign up for a free WaveSpeedAI account to claim starter credits, copy your API key from /accesskey, then call the endpoint shown in the API tab of the playground. The playground also auto-generates a code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for the parameters you've set.

Can I use Seedance 2.0 Fast Reference To Video Turbo outputs commercially?

Commercial usage rights depend on the model's license, set by its provider (ByteDance). Check the provider's applicable terms and WaveSpeedAI's Terms of Service before commercial use.
