A red fox trots through fresh knee-deep snow at dawn. The camera tracks low beside it at the same speed, snow kicking up from its paws, breath visible in the cold air, warm golden backlight through bare birch trees.

Choose Seedance 2.0 if…
You want to generate now, without an API integration: clips of 5 to 15 seconds, a 4K ceiling, and cheaper Fast and Mini tiers for drafts. A failed run returns its credits.
Watch Wan 3.0 if…
Your source is a document — a report, a deck, a spreadsheet or a web page — that should become a video without being retyped, or you want cheap 480p drafts of a 30-second take. You will need your own Alibaba Cloud integration to run it.
Run the Seedance 2.0 side on Imgo
Wan 3.0's two signature jobs have a Seedance 2.0 equivalent. For a 30-second piece, plan two shots of up to 15 seconds that share the same reference images. For a document, paste its key points into the prompt as a shot list.
