A celestial whale glides through a sea of clouds.
View the exact prompt & reference
Animate the supplied fantasy image as the exact first frame of a continuous ten-second cinematic aerial shot. Preserve the single immense translucent celestial whale, the small observatory, mountain summit, clouds and the original indigo, apricot and opalescent colors. Maintain the whale anatomy, size and identity, with one head, one body and the same fins. During seconds zero to three, the whale begins a gentle forward glide in the direction its head faces, with one slow coordinated movement of its tail and fins. At seconds three to seven, let it continue gracefully across the cloud ocean while tiny warm lights along its fins shimmer subtly; clouds drift slowly at a different depth. The camera tracks sideways with the whale and rises just slightly, preserving the observatory below as a stable scale anchor. During seconds seven to ten, ease the camera motion to reveal a little more of the luminous cloud horizon while the whale remains fully readable in the frame. Keep the observatory and mountain structurally stable. Cinematic atmospheric perspective, soft golden rim light, natural motion blur and delicate believable translucency. A peaceful magnificent discovery, not a battle. No new creatures, sudden transformation, scene change, duplicate whale, text or logos. Audio: soft wind, an original gentle low whale-like resonant call and a restrained airy orchestral swell, no speech.

Questions before you create?
Understand the credits, models and what happens after you click create.
Choose Seedance 2.5, Seedance 2.0, 2.0 Fast or 2.0 Mini for video, and Seedream 5.0 Pro for images. Each model has its own credit rate, shown before generation. A paused model is labeled unavailable and cannot use credits.
Choose a subscription or one-time credit pack and use creation credits for videos or images. A 5-second Seedance 2.5 video at 720p uses 100 credits; 10 seconds uses 200, and 15 seconds uses 300. An eligible Seedream image uses 5 credits. If your account includes image-only credits, they apply only to the included image preset.
Our video examples are actual API generations. Open a scene to see its model, original prompt and settings, then make it your own. AI results vary, so reusing a prompt does not guarantee an identical result.
No. Credit packs start at $5 with no renewal. For monthly and yearly plans, cards offer one-time payment or optional automatic renewal. PromptPay is always one term without automatic renewal. THB plans accept PromptPay QR or card. Yearly plans deliver credits in 12 monthly grants. Existing automatic subscriptions keep their original terms. Every credit grant lasts 365 days from issuance, including after cancellation. Previously purchased terms remain valid. Checkout availability is shown before purchase.
Credits are reserved when a job is submitted and returned on confirmed failure. If a request times out, we first reconcile the original task so you are not charged twice. A new creative variation after a successful result is a new generation.
Your generated media is available for 90 days. Accounts include 10 video download sessions per day; resuming within a valid session does not use another allowance.
Supported reference images can guide a generation. You must have the rights and required permission to use uploaded materials. Portrait-reference workflows have additional provider requirements; the studio explains supported inputs before submission.
Upload one JPG, PNG or WebP image up to 8 MB in the studio. For video, each side must be 300–6,000 pixels and the aspect ratio between 0.4 and 2.5. The image becomes the first frame. Seedance 2.5 preserves its ratio; the 2.0 family also allows another ratio with center-cropping. Choose Auto to preserve the image. Describe the motion, camera and details to preserve in your prompt. Our reference examples include the actual input, prompt and generated result.
Yes. Try this workflow loads the example image, video prompt and duration into the studio. You can replace the image or change the direction before generating. The reference stills in this section were created with Seedream 5.0 Pro; their motion examples were generated with Seedance 2.5. A new generation uses the displayed credits and can produce a different result.
Seedance 2.0 offers native 4K output in the studio. Seedance 2.5 offers up to 1080p; Fast and Mini offer up to 720p. Select a resolution to see its credit cost before generating. Seedance 2.0 4K and Seedance 2.5 1080p use 10-bit HEVC, which some browsers cannot preview. Download the original to play it in a compatible player.
Generation time varies with the request and provider demand. The studio shows the job status while it is queued and processing. We do not promise an instant result; completed work appears in your library.
Purchases are non-refundable except where required by law. We do not offer discretionary refunds for a change of mind, unused credits or dissatisfaction with a successful creative result. Confirmed failed jobs return reserved credits. Read the Credit & Refund Policy for billing reviews and statutory exceptions.
