Seedance 1.0 Pro — cinematic, precise

Seedance 1.0 Pro is the workhorse cinematic engine: 1080p, strong physical motion, native aspect ratios and image-to-video casting, on a 3-to-12-second grid priced per length. When a shot has to look like it came off a real set, this is the render most people keep.

Where Pro earns its price

→Motion that respects mass: walking, driving, fabric and water look weighted rather than floaty.
→Native aspect control — vertical 9:16 for shorts renders as a real vertical composition, not a crop.
→Image-to-video that keeps the reference's face and wardrobe through the move.
→Seed support: lock a composition, then iterate on the words.

Draft on Lite, keep on Pro

The Seedance tiers share a prompt style, so the economical workflow is to block a scene on Seedance Lite at 720p, then re-render the keeper on Pro at 1080p with the same seed and settings. Film mode makes this a one-click re-render per scene.
