Seedance 2.5 style test: 1990s low-poly mall with a figure in a red coat and a waving gingerbread figure (20 s)
Pink-fog low-poly mall: symmetrical fountain atrium, a box-headed figure in a red coat, a gingerbread-man figure waving in fog, a coin dropped in the fountain and an exit at dusk. This run had no linked reference image.
Task: A liminal low-poly mall wander ending at an exit.
Outcome: succeeded
0.84 s: Symmetrical mall atrium with palm trees and a fountain.
4.18 s: Figure with a box head in a red coat in a pink shuttered corridor.
7.52 s: A small figure waves in pink fog far ahead.
9.20 s: Closer to a gingerbread-style figure beside a palm.
12.54 s: Red coat figure at the fountain edge with a folded map.
14.21 s: A coin in the box-headed figure's hand over the water.
15.88 s: Wider atrium with more storefront light.
17.56 s: Glass doors and the gingerbread figure at the exit.
19.23 s: Night exterior silhouette with a waving figure.
Intent vs result: Polygonal shapes, fog and a single red accent appear consistently in the sampled frames; the prompt named a reference image but none was linked, so the look came from the text alone.
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.

"procedure": "Seedance 2.5, one reference still that defines the art style only (this run had no linked image), a long structured prompt stating a genre style and a short story, 20 s, audio requested, no seed set. One of a series of genre style tests run on 9 August 2026 (UTC), each with a different look; this is the second set of twenty from that series.

}Evidence claims
- [sourced_fact] Timestamped observations above come from viewing 12 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] A strong text description of a retro style can stand without a linked reference image in this sample.
