Overview

About this model

Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame 480p is the faster, lower-cost tier of the Seedance 2.5 First & Last Frame endpoint, generating a smooth keyframe transition between a start and end image at 480p resolution. Ideal for previews and drafts before committing to a full 720p render. This is Muapi's Spicy endpoint for the same Seedance 2.5 model — the relaxed-moderation sibling of the standard tier, with lighter content-safety filtering and bolder, higher-contrast output.

1Draft previews: Iterate on transition prompts at a lower cost before rendering at 720p.
2Batch generation: Produce many keyframe transitions economically.
3Social content: Generate lightweight transition clips for platforms that don't need high resolution.
4Concept checks: Validate a transition idea before spending on a full-resolution render.

Common Questions

Frequently asked

What's different about the Spicy endpoint?

Same request/response shape as the standard endpoint, but served on the relaxed-moderation Spicy tier, with reduced content-safety filtering and more dramatic, higher-contrast motion. Priced 10% above the standard tier.

How is this different from the 720p variant?

Same model and features, but rendered at 480p — faster and cheaper, at $0.17/sec instead of $0.34/sec.

How many images do I need to provide?

Exactly 2, in order: `[first_frame, last_frame]`, via the `images_list` field.

How long can the transition be?

Between 4 and 30 seconds, configurable via the `duration` parameter.

Can I reproduce the same output twice?

Yes — pass an explicit `seed` value, or use -1 for a random seed each time.

Can I use this for production, or just drafts?

It's usable for either — the 480p tier trades resolution for speed and cost, so it's best for drafts and iteration, while the 720p tier suits final deliverables.
