Seedance 2.5 Draft Mode: Preview in 480P, Render in 1080P

Seedance 2.5 now supports Draft Mode. Generate a 480P draft first, then, once you are satisfied with the result, generate the same shot in 1080P with richer detail and higher visual quality.

In Draft Mode, the 480P-to-1080P process is a high-spec re-render of the same shot.

By contrast, standard 480P-to-1080P Video Upscale either regenerates the video or uses the low-resolution video as a reference or for upscaling.

Because the underlying connection is different, the two workflows differ in consistency and image quality. Draft Mode delivers noticeably stronger texture and detail in the 1080P output.
