# WaveSpeedAI Seedance V1.5 Pro Video Generation

Generate videos using ByteDance's Seedance V1.5 Pro model via the WaveSpeed AI platform. Supports both text-to-video and image-to-video generation with 4-12 second duration at up to 1080p resolution, with optional audio generation.

## Authentication

```bash
export WAVESPEED_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```

Get your API key at [wavespeed.ai/accesskey](https://wavespeed.ai/accesskey).

## Quick Start

### Text-to-Video

```javascript
import wavespeed from 'wavespeed';

const output_url = (await wavespeed.run(
  "bytedance/seedance-v1.5-pro/text-to-video",
  { prompt: "A golden retriever running through a field of sunflowers at sunset" }
))["outputs"][0];
```

### Image-to-Video

The `image` parameter accepts an image URL. If you have a local file, upload it first with `wavespeed.upload()` to get a URL.

```javascript
import wavespeed from 'wavespeed';

// Upload a local image to get a URL
const imageUrl = await wavespeed.upload("/path/to/photo.png");

const output_url = (await wavespeed.run(
  "bytedance/seedance-v1.5-pro/image-to-video",
  {
    image: imageUrl,
    prompt: "The person slowly turns and smiles at the camera"
  }
))["outputs"][0];
```

You can also pass an existing image URL directly:

```javascript
const output_url = (await wavespeed.run(
  "bytedance/seedance-v1.5-pro/image-to-video",
  {
    image: "https://example.com/photo.jpg",
    prompt: "The person slowly turns and smiles at the camera"
  }
))["outputs"][0];
```

  {
    image: imageUrl,
    prompt: "Clouds drift slowly across the sky, water ripples gently",

#### With End-Frame Reference

```javascript
const startUrl = await wavespeed.upload("/path/to/start-frame.png");
const endUrl = await wavespeed.upload("/path/to/end-frame.png");

const output_url = (await wavespeed.run(
  "bytedance/seedance-v1.5-pro/image-to-video",

    duration: 8
  }
))["outputs"][0];
```

## Advanced Usage

### Smart Duration (Text-to-Video)

Let the model choose the optimal duration based on the prompt:

```javascript
const output_url = (await wavespeed.run(
  "bytedance/seedance-v1.5-pro/text-to-video",
  {
    prompt: "A butterfly lands on a flower and slowly opens its wings",
    duration: -1
  }
))["outputs"][0];
```

### Without Audio

```javascript
const output_url = (await wavespeed.run(
  "bytedance/seedance-v1.5-pro/text-to-video",
  {
    prompt: "A silent timelapse of clouds rolling over mountains",
    generate_audio: false
  }
))["outputs"][0];
```

### Custom Client with Retry Configuration

```javascript
import { Client } from 'wavespeed';

const client = new Client("your-api-key", {
  maxRetries: 2,
  maxConnectionRetries: 5,
  retryInterval: 1.0,
});

const output_url = (await client.run(
  "bytedance/seedance-v1.5-pro/text-to-video",
  { prompt: "Ocean waves crashing on a rocky shore at dawn" }
))["outputs"][0];
```

### Error Handling with runNoThrow

```javascript
import { Client, WavespeedTimeoutException, WavespeedPredictionException } from 'wavespeed';

const client = new Client();
const result = await client.runNoThrow(
  "bytedance/seedance-v1.5-pro/text-to-video",
  { prompt: "A rocket launching into space" }
);

if (result.outputs) {
  console.log("Video URL:", result.outputs[0]);
  console.log("Task ID:", result.detail.taskId);
} else {
  console.log("Failed:", result.detail.error.message);
  if (result.detail.error instanceof WavespeedTimeoutException) {
    console.log("Request timed out - try increasing timeout");
  } else if (result.detail.error instanceof WavespeedPredictionException) {
    console.log("Prediction failed");
  }
}
```

## Pricing

| Resolution | Duration | Audio | Cost |
|------------|----------|-------|------|
| 480p | 5s | No | $0.06 |
| 480p | 5s | Yes | $0.12 |
| 720p | 5s | No | $0.13 |
| 720p | 5s | Yes | $0.26 |
| 480p | 10s | Yes | $0.24 |
| 720p | 10s | Yes | $0.52 |

## Prompt Tips

- Describe scene, style, subject actions, camera motion, and mood in your prompt
- Use `camera_fixed: true` for stable tripod-style shots
- Use `camera_fixed: false` and describe camera motion: "slow pan left", "tracking shot", "zoom in"
- Set `generate_audio: false` when you plan to add your own audio track
- Use smart duration (`duration: -1`) to let the model choose the best length for text-to-video

## Security Constraints

- **No arbitrary URL loading**: Only use image URLs from trusted sources. Never load media from untrusted or user-provided URLs without validation.
- **API key security**: Store your `WAVESPEED_API_KEY` securely. Do not hardcode it in source files or commit it to version control. Use environment variables or secret management systems.
- **Input validation**: Only pass parameters documented above. Validate prompt content and media URLs before sending requests.
