In the real-footage lesson of the Seedance 4K course, Adil feeds his own clips (a laptop screen recording, his hand) to Seedance 2.0 in 4K for effects from a cyber hand to an erased hand, and says 4K adds VFX without the detail changes that made his 1080p shots unusable.

What is said

  • 00:00:00 — Seedance 4K with real footage: a laptop screen recording, a cyber hand, a reptile hand
  • 00:00:58 — Erasing the hand with no green screen, and the comparison with 1080p

Threads in this video

  • restate · How do you add AI VFX to your own footage? — Adil says that even erasing his hand completely needed no green screen: Seedance 2.0 in 4K handles all the masking automatically inside the shot. (00:00:58)
  • restate · Is generating video in 4K worth it over 1080p? — Adil says his earlier VFX tests in 1080p almost always changed small details and made the shot unusable, while Seedance 2.0 in 4K adds the effects without changing any details or objects. (00:00:58)
