The rate is $0.70 per second, based on the generated video duration.

Introduction To Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame

ByteDance's Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame turns a start still and an end still into a smooth image-to-video clip at 720p for up to about 30 seconds, billed at $0.70 per second. Trading hard cuts, manual morphs, and frame-by-frame tweening for prompt-guided keyframe transitions that keep both endpoint looks intact, this model helps editors, product marketers, and storyboard teams bridge two known frames with believable camera motion. For developers, Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame on RunComfy can be used both in the browser and via an HTTP API, so you don't need to host or scale the model yourself.
Ideal for: Scene-to-Scene Bridges | Product Pack-to-Use Reveals | Before-to-After Story Beats

ByteDance Seed / Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame#


Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame is ByteDance Seed's early-access image-to-video mode for bridging two stills into one continuous clip. You supply a start image and an end image; the model invents the motion, camera path, and pacing that connect them while keeping both endpoint looks intact.


Output format: Video / up to ~30 seconds / 720p / aspect ratios from square to ultrawide


Highlights#


  • Two-keyframe bridge: Upload a start still and an end still; the model fills the journey between them instead of cutting or crossfading.
  • Identity locked at both ends: Subject, lighting, and framing stay recognizable at the opening and closing moments while mid-clip motion stays cinematic.
  • Prompt-steered motion: Describe camera moves, action, and mood so the transition follows your direction rather than a generic morph.
  • Clip length room: Generate clips up to about 30 seconds at 720p so scene changes and reveals can unfold without feeling rushed.
  • Flexible framing: Choose from common delivery ratios including 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 21:9, and 9:21.
  • Built for shot links: Useful when you already know the opening and closing frames and need believable in-between motion.

How to Use#


1) Open the model on RunComfy and prepare two stills that clearly mark the start and end of the shot.

2) Upload First Frame Image and Last Frame Image as the opening and closing keyframes.

3) Write a prompt for what happens between those frames — action, camera move, lighting, and mood.

4) Set Aspect Ratio to match delivery (for example 16:9 landscape or 9:16 vertical).

5) Choose Duration from 4–30 seconds; start shorter while iterating, then extend.

6) Optionally set a Seed to reproduce a strong take; leave empty for random.

7) Generate, review, then refine the prompt or swap an endpoint image if mid motion drifts.

8) For API use on RunComfy, send the same parameters; results appear in your job history.


Prompt & Reference Tips#


  • Keep subject scale and lighting similar across both stills for a cleaner interpolation path.
  • Name the camera explicitly (slow push-in, gentle pan, orbit) so motion is not a flat morph.
  • Describe a midpoint beat when the start and end scenes differ a lot.
  • Keep wardrobe and identity cues consistent if character continuity matters.
  • Prefer continuous action over hard scene swaps when you want one-take feel.
  • Validate with shorter durations first, then lengthen once the path looks right.
  • If the ending drifts, reinforce the last-frame look in the prompt and keep that still uncluttered.
  • Avoid contradictory cues such as "static camera" plus "fast orbit."

How Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame compares to other models#


  • Compared with single-image image-to-video, this endpoint also locks the closing look, so you control the destination.
  • Compared with generic morph tools, it invents cinematic camera and subject motion rather than a simple pixel blend.
  • Ideal use case: two storyboards or product stills that need a natural bridge for ads, social, or previz.
  • Based on publicly available information, sibling Seedance 2.5 modes suit open-ended generation; this mode is specialized for first-to-last keyframe transitions.

On RunComfy you can iterate in the browser and reuse the same settings over HTTP API.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame used for in image-to-video workflows?

Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame is built for bridging two stills into one continuous clip. You upload a start image and an end image, then describe the motion between them so editors, product teams, and storyboard artists can link known keyframes without hard cuts.

How does Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame differ from single-image image-to-video?

Single-image modes only lock the opening look. Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame also locks the closing still, so the model has to invent a path that arrives at your chosen end frame while keeping both endpoint identities recognizable.

What kinds of creative jobs fit Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame best?

It fits scene-to-scene bridges, pack-to-in-use product reveals, before-to-after transformations, and story beats where you already have two boards and need natural camera motion between them. Clear, related endpoint stills usually work better than unrelated images.

How do I get better transitions with Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame?

Keep subject scale and lighting similar across the two stills, and write a prompt that names camera moves plus a midpoint action. Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame follows those cues more reliably than a prompt that only says "morph" or "transition."

What input limits should I know before using Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame?

You must provide a prompt and exactly two images in order: first frame, then last frame. Aspect ratio options include 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 21:9, and 9:21. Duration is a whole number of seconds from 4 to 30, with 5 as the default, and output is 720p.

Can Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame keep both endpoint looks consistent?

Yes. Preserving the visual identity of the start and end frames is a core goal of Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame. Results still depend on how related the two stills are and how clearly the prompt describes the journey between them.

Can developers use Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame through the RunComfy API?

Yes. Prototype in the RunComfy Web UI, then call the same Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame model through the RunComfy API with the same parameters for production or automation. You do not need to host or scale the model yourself.

How much does it cost to generate with Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame on RunComfy?

Generations consume usd / credits based on the generated video duration at $0.70 per second. Check the Generation section on this page for live pricing when you run Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame.
