Quick start
Build the first reusable workflow in order
This keeps new users from jumping into video generation with loose references that will fail or produce inconsistent results.
Start with characterStep 1
Create an AI character
Start by saving a reusable character so Seedance workflows have a stable identity reference.
Step 2
Generate an image
Use Image Studio after the character is ready. Keep the generated result in history or save it as an asset when it needs to be reused.
Step 3
Pick a video template
Templates apply the intended model settings first, then you can generate a guided video from the selected setup.
Video references for Seedance 2 should come from saved characters or assets.
