AI video YouTuber Tim Simmons created a two-minute neo-noir film titled 'Deathwalks into a Bar' entirely using Seedance 2.5. He noted that while the 30-second outputs are costly, they are useful for dialogue-heavy scenes and that the short film was completed in approximately 15 generations.
“Yeah, so, uh, well, the film was Deathwalks into a Bar. Uh, it was, uh, it's like a two-minute-ish neo-noir kind of thing with a twist. Shaw, Eat Your Heart Out.”
“So, uh, yeah, I mean, I think that, uh, the cost is a big issue there. Um, but, uh, I will say that, uh, that entire short was done in about 15 generations, which is pretty low.”
