Seedance 2.5 style variant with one linked image: 20 s dark flooded hall opening on a single flame, a lamp handed between two figures
A dark flooded hall opening on a single small flame on the water: two small figures in a splash, a close of a dark-haired woman with red eyes, a close of a red-spiky-haired man with a flame at the lower left, and a red-haired armoured man and a hooded dark-haired person with a red flame in joined hands.
Task: Render two adults in a flooded ruined hall who pass a small hand-lamp, as a wide, two close-ups and a closing two-shot as a near-black, one-colour, wet-brushstroke look, at 20 s.
Outcome: succeeded
0.84 s: A dark flooded hall with a single small flame on the water at the centre.
2.51 s: Same.
4.18 s: Same.
5.85 s: Two small figures in a splash, an orange ball above them.
7.52 s: The two figures hold the flame.
9.20 s: Close: a dark-haired woman with red eyes, a red flame at the left.
10.87 s: Same.
12.54 s: Close: a red-spiky-haired man with a flame at the lower left.
14.21 s: Same.
15.88 s: Two figures crouch, a red-spiky-haired armoured man and a hooded dark-haired person, a red flame in their joined hands.
17.56 s: Same.
19.23 s: Same.
Intent vs result: The sampled frames follow a wide of about 8 s with a splash handover, a woman's close-up at about 9.2 to 10.9 s, a man's close-up at about 12.5 to 15.9 s and a closing two-shot with the lamp in joined hands. The wide holds the single flame for three samples before the figures arrive. One linked image input is recorded; its disclosure and rights basis are unconfirmed. At this size the palette and medium read as consistent with the linked reference image (compared locally by H01; the image is not reproduced).
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 linked image input (a style reference; the prompt asks to take only its medium, palette and light), a long structured prompt that fixes one scene in three parts (a wide of about 8 s, two close-ups and a closing two-shot) and states the look target (a near-black world with one burning colour and broad wet brushstrokes at the figure edges), 20 s, 16:9, audio requested, no seed set. One of a set of style variants of the same scene on 30 August 2026 (UTC). Sampled inspection: 12 timestamped frames from 0.84 s to 19.23 s of a 20.06 s file, plus ffmpeg scene detection at threshold 0.30 and blackdetect.",
"parameters": {
"seed": "unset",

"multi_shots": false,
"aspect_ratio": "16:9",
"audio_requested": true,
"resolution_label": "720p",

},
"limitations": [
"Sampled visual inspection from timestamped frames (contact sheets), not full real-time playback; motion smoothness, micro-timing and lip-sync are unrated.",
"Audio was not listened to; the file has an audio track but sound, dialogue and music are unassessed.",
"Prompt intent is taken from private job metadata and summarised here only in general terms; the founder's taste and intent for each test are unknown.",
"Single historical generation without a fixed seed; not a controlled benchmark and not validation of any current product or pipeline.",
"Request vs picture: the prompt asks that close-up faces keep the requested medium and not slip into photographic skin, but the woman's close-up reads as photographic at this size. The prompt also asks for broad wet brushstrokes at the figure edges; at this size the frames read as a glossy render with splash and few visible brush marks."

}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] Opening on one small flame builds the scene before any figure appears.
