Seedance 2.5 sequence run with one linked image: 20 s brass catwalk over a dark boiler floor, a span that breaks and a hanging figure
A dark boiler space with a lit catwalk: two tiny figures walking toward each other with a lamp, the catwalk breaking apart, a figure hanging from the broken end, a close of a long dark-haired man with gold eyes, a close of a red-haired man with a valve at his chin, and two figures crouched on the catwalk under a gas lamp.
Task: Render two figures on a brass catwalk over a boiler floor that breaks apart as a wet-stroke hero look, at 20 s.
Outcome: succeeded
0.84 s: A dark boiler space with a lit brass catwalk and a lamp: two tiny figures walk toward each other.
2.51 s: Same.
4.18 s: The catwalk breaks apart, a figure on it.
5.85 s: A figure hangs from the broken end.
7.52 s: Same.
9.19 s: Close: a long dark-haired man with gold eyes, side-lit.
10.86 s: Same.
12.53 s: Close: a red-haired pale man over a brass pipe, a valve at his chin.
14.20 s: Same, closer, teeth bared.
15.87 s: Same.
17.54 s: Two figures crouched on the catwalk under a gas lamp.
19.21 s: Same.
Intent vs result: The sampled frames follow a wide, a close-up of each of two characters at about 9.2 to 14.2 s and a closing two-shot at about 15.9 to 19.2 s. One linked image input is recorded; its disclosure and rights basis are unconfirmed.
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 with one scene in four parts (a wide of about 8 s, a close-up of each of two characters of about 4 s requesting spoken lines, and a closing two-shot) and a stated look target (a wet-stroke hero look), 20 s, 16:9, audio requested, no seed set. One of a set of sequence runs on 31 August 2026 (UTC). Whether the requested lines were spoken was not checked (audio not listened to). Sampled inspection: 12 timestamped frames from 0.84 s to 19.21 s of a 20.04 s file, plus ffmpeg scene detection at threshold 0.30 and blackdetect.",

}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 catwalk that breaks in half is a clear event in a dark wide.
