ByteDance Seedance4–15 sNative audio480p / 720pFrom 68 credits

Seedance 2.0 Mini is Cinel’s ByteDance lane for short clips with synchronized audio at a lower credit floor than Seedance 2.5: write a timed shot, or bring a compact set of images, video, and audio references (up to 8 / 3 / 3), then render 4–15 second MP4 at 480p or 720p. The lowest advertised default is 4s · 480p from 68 credits (observed tip 73f60ee0). This page is not Seedance 1.0 Turbo (silent, cheaper drafts) and not Seedance 2.5 (up to 30s, larger reference stacks, optional web search).

Keep 1.0 Turbo for silent storyboards; stay on Mini for sound-on short social; open 2.5 when length and heavy references matter.
