ByteDance's Dreamina launched Seedance 2.5 across Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe and South America, with more regions promised. The headline capabilities: native 30-second videos in a single generation, a long-video mode reaching 3 minutes with consistency held throughout, and timestamp control down to one second.

The production-pipeline features are the more interesting half. Plugins for Maya and Blender, up to 50 multimodal references including 3D white models and green-screen footage, and an interactive editing mode that reshapes part of an existing frame rather than regenerating the shot. That is a deliberate move out of the prompt-and-pray category and into something an actual VFX pipeline can hold.

The rest of this analysis — 1 more paragraph — plus the source, is on the paid plans.

Every wire item is source-verified before it posts and graded: confirmed · strong · reported · rumor.
