Use the mechanic from <Image 1> and the mechanical bird from <Image 2>. Preserve her exact face, hairstyle, jumpsuit, boots, and tools. Preserve the bird’s transparent body, visible gears, silver wings, cyan eyes, and size. The opening frame is a clean medium-wide shot of the mechanic standing beside a damaged spacecraft inside a quiet maintenance bay. The mechanical bird rests clearly on her tool case. She taps the bird gently. It wakes, spreads its transparent wings, and flies into an open maintenance panel. The mechanic watches the diagnostic screen. One damaged circuit after another turns green as the bird moves inside the ship. Then the bird suddenly stops. Its cyan eyes turn red. The camera begins stable on the mechanic and bird, tracks the bird into the spacecraft panel, then slowly pushes toward the mechanic’s expression as the warning appears. Grounded science-fiction adventure, detailed mechanical motion, clean staging, cinematic suspense.
The woman in @Image 1 sets the mug from @Image 2 down on the table, looks at the camera and says: "Nothing beats a quiet morning." Close-up, soft window light.
Seedance 2.0 Turbo Reference-to-Video guides generation with your own reference images, videos, and audio.

| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| prompt | Yes | Detailed description of the cinematic scene |
| aspect_ratio | No | Output format: 16:9 (default), 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 1:1, 21:9 |
| duration | No | Video length in seconds: 4-15 (default: 5) |
| resolution | No | Output resolution: 720p (default) or 1080p |
| enable_web_search | No | Enable web search for real-time information (default: false) |
| generate_audio | No | Generate synchronized audio for the output video (default: true) |
| reference_images | Conditional | Reference image URLs to guide style, characters, or composition |
| reference_videos | Conditional | Reference video URLs (up to 3). Each reference video is normalized to at least 2 seconds, each clip and the combined input are capped at 15 seconds, and the normalized combined input duration is rounded up to a whole second for billing. |
| reference_audios | Conditional | Reference audio URLs (total length must not exceed 15 seconds) |
Pricing is calculated upfront using your selected duration, plus reference-video charges when applicable.
Output-only pricing:
| Resolution | Per second | 5 seconds | 10 seconds | 15 seconds |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 720p | $0.14 | $0.70 | $1.40 | $2.10 |
| 1080p | $0.16 | $0.80 | $1.60 | $2.40 |
Pricing has two parts:
Each reference video is normalized to at least 2 seconds, each clip and the combined input are capped at 15 seconds, and the normalized combined input duration is rounded up to a whole second for billing.
| Reference input | Output | 720p | 1080p |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2s | 5s | $0.625 | $0.725 |
| 5s | 5s | $0.85 | $0.95 |
| 15s | 5s | $1.60 | $1.70 |
Notice: Use @Image 1, @Image 2, @Audio 1, etc. to reference your uploaded assets. Number each type separately, in upload order.
Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/bytedance/seedance-2.0/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.

time.sleep(2)Seedance 2.0 Reference To Video Turbo is a ByteDance model for reference-guided video generation, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. Seedance 2.0 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.
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-reference-to-video-turbo.
Seedance 2.0 Reference To Video Turbo starts at $0.14 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.
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-reference-to-video-turbo.
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.
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.
