Edit an uploaded video with a text prompt
Use Edit to ask for a focused visual reinterpretation of the source video. Seedance 2.5 keeps the source aspect ratio and uses automatic duration for this task type; it is not a frame-accurate timeline edit.
Upload a source video, describe the change or continuation you want, then track the task and download the result when it is ready.
Upload one source video
Use one MP4 or MOV source, 2–30 seconds, 480p or 720p, 24–60 FPS, and up to 200 MB. Edit preserves the source duration; both Edit and Extend preserve its ratio.
This AI video editor accepts one source clip and one written instruction. Keep the requested change focused so the model has a clear editing target.
1
Sign in, choose a video you own or are authorized to process, and upload it to the secure media flow. Supported browser video types include MP4, MOV, and WebM, up to 250 MB.
2
State what should change, what should remain stable, and any continuity detail that matters. Use Edit for a new interpretation of the source or Extend for a following segment.
3
Submit the task, monitor its status, then watch the full result before downloading. Retry a failed task only after adjusting the instruction or source material.
Choose the workflow that matches the outcome you need. Both workflows use the uploaded source clip rather than starting a video from text alone.
Use Edit to ask for a focused visual reinterpretation of the source video. Seedance 2.5 keeps the source aspect ratio and uses automatic duration for this task type; it is not a frame-accurate timeline edit.
Use Extend to request a continuation after the source clip. Describe the next action, camera behavior, setting, and continuity cues instead of asking for unrelated scenes in one prompt.
The interface exposes only the constraints supported by this Seedance 2.5 request shape. The server validates the final request before it reaches the provider.
Use a source clip when its subject, framing, or movement is more useful than generating a new scene from scratch. Results should be reviewed before publication or client delivery.
Test a different setting, surface treatment, or lighting mood around a product clip while asking the prompt to preserve the product and camera path.
Create alternate visual directions for a short social clip from the same approved source, then select the result that best matches the campaign context.
Describe a setting or art-direction change while retaining the existing action and composition. Avoid assuming every object or written detail will remain identical.
Explore daylight, overcast, evening, or stylized atmosphere directions with a compact prompt that names the desired lighting and what should stay unchanged.
Edit video with AI by translating a creative brief into one specific instruction. This works best when the prompt separates the intended change from protected details.
Use AI video extension to ask for the next moment of an existing shot. Include an action direction and continuity cues for the subject, camera, environment, and pacing.
A useful prompt names the edit, anchors what must remain stable, and adds only the details needed to guide the result. Treat these as starting patterns, not guaranteed outcomes.
Prompt formula: requested change + preserved subject or action + camera or lighting continuity + constraints to avoid.
Replace only the background with a clean sunlit kitchen. Keep the bottle shape, label placement, hand movement, and slow push-in camera motion consistent.
Name the specific item and movement that should stay stable instead of using broad requests such as make it better.
Keep the performer, pose, and camera angle. Restyle the scene as a restrained editorial film look with cool window light and subtle grain; do not add titles or logos.
Style can affect fine detail. Explicitly say which identities, text, props, and framing are most important to preserve.
Continue from the last moment: the cyclist rides forward through the same tree-lined street, the camera follows at the same low angle, and the late-afternoon light stays consistent.
For an extension, describe the next action and repeat the few visual cues that make the new segment feel connected to the source.
Extend the shot by one calm beat as the subject turns toward the window, keeping the same room, wardrobe, lens perspective, and gentle handheld movement.
Short, coherent continuations are easier to review than a request that changes place, cast, action, and camera language at the same time.
AI video generation can alter details unexpectedly. Watch the entire result and use this checklist before publishing, sharing, or replacing an approved source clip.
Check people, products, logos, clothing, and important objects for unintended changes.
Check movement, interactions, camera direction, and transitions from beginning to end.
Review readable text, labels, trademarks, and signs. Do not assume the model will preserve them exactly.
Look for flicker, unstable edges, occlusions, warped hands, or changes in the background and lighting.
Review the generated output with sound if audio is relevant to the task; check timing, intelligibility, and any unexpected changes.
Confirm that the result is appropriate for the people, brands, footage, and distribution channel involved.
The workspace sends a model task from one source video and a prompt. It is not a replacement for conventional post-production or a guarantee of a particular result.
Model documentation may describe editing-related research or product capabilities. It does not establish availability, settings, price, quality, or delivery of this independent service.
