Seedance 2.0 in StoryStudio: image-to-video up to 4K over MCP

Seedance 2.0 is ByteDance's video model. In StoryStudio you reach it over MCP, from Claude, Cursor, Codex or any agent. You describe the shot, the studio generates it, and you keep going in the same chat.

What Seedance 2.0 is good for

Seedance 2.0 turns an image into video, with eight second shots in 16:9, 1:1 or 9:16, and a resolution ladder from 480p to 4K. Reach for it when you want high-resolution output and control over the format, from quick drafts at 720p to a finished 4K shot.

How to use Seedance 2.0 over MCP

Connect the StoryStudio MCP server to your agent once, then ask in plain language. "Turn this image into a vertical eight second clip at 1080p." StoryStudio hosts your reference for free, routes the job to Seedance 2.0, and returns the video. No separate key, no extra app.

Seedance vs Veo 3.1

Seedance 2.0 goes higher on resolution, up to 4K. Veo 3.1 leans cinematic and ships native audio. You are not locked to one inside StoryStudio: pick the model that fits the shot and switch when the next one needs something else.
