About Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast
Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast is the speed-oriented variant of ByteDance Seed's first-generation Seedance video model. It handles text-to-video only, which makes it a way to test several written scene directions quickly before settling on a shot. It shares the Seedance 1.0 family traits ByteDance describes, such as multi-shot storytelling, but gives up the image-to-video input of Seedance 1.0 Pro.
Where it works well
- Text-to-video drafting where many wordings of one scene are compared before a final render.
- Inherits the family's multi-shot approach, so one prompt can describe several cuts in sequence.
- Cinematic framing language such as dolly, tracking and close-up is read as direction, per ByteDance's description of the 1.0 model family.
- A narrower input set keeps requests simple: a prompt in, a video out.
When to choose another model
- It has no image-to-video input, so animating a supplied picture needs Seedance 1.0 Pro or a 2.x model.
- It is built for iteration, so shots you intend to keep belong on Seedance 1.0 Pro.
- No reference, extension or editing operations are offered.

FAQ
What does the Fast version of Seedance 1.0 Pro do?
It focuses on quicker text-to-video iteration. You write the scene, receive a short clip, and refine the prompt. Text-to-video is its only operation, so image inputs are not part of it.
Can Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast animate an image?
No. Text-to-video is its single operation. For image-to-video use Seedance 1.0 Pro, or a Seedance 2.x model if you also need first and last frame control or reference inputs.
When should I pick Pro Fast over Pro?
Pick Fast while you are still deciding on wording, framing or pacing and need several attempts. Switch to Pro for the clip you intend to keep, especially if it starts from an existing image.
Does it support multi-shot prompts?
It belongs to the Seedance 1.0 family, which ByteDance describes as supporting multi-shot narrative video. Describe shots in order and repeat the subject's key traits in each so the character stays recognizable across cuts.
Is Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast the same as Seedance 2.0 Fast?
