Seedance 2.5 red-strand forest duel: silhouettes, close-ups and a final stand-off (20 s)
A silhouette duel in a forest of red-glowing strands, a long-haired dark figure's close-ups, a spiky red-haired man in a black gauntlet and a stand-off at the end.
Task: A duel among glowing red strands ending in a stand-off.
Outcome: succeeded
0.63 s: Two silhouettes fight in front of a curtain of glowing red strands.
8.15 s: Close-up of a long-haired dark figure with a red glint.
11.91 s: Red spiky-haired man in black armour with a gauntlet at his face.
16.93 s: The two fight in a web of strands.
18.18 s: Two figures stand apart in grey light.
19.44 s: Held stand-off; black from 19.54 s.
Intent vs result: blackdetect 19.54-20.0 s; detector cuts 2.
Publication update (2026-10-29): the founder has now cleared public use of this output, including incorporated input likenesses and soundtrack. Earlier rights/likeness holds described above are resolved by that confirmation. Reference-input files remain private. Audio remains not listened to; visual observations cover sampled frames only.

}Evidence claims
- [sourced_fact] Timestamped observations above come from viewing 19 sampled frames of the output (sampled visual inspection, not full playback).
- [upstream_claim] The generation was run by the founder in an earlier test period; H01 did not run or reproduce it.
- [inference] Strong palette (red on grey) holds identity across shots; the end tail is half a second.
