Seedance, now with real people

Seedance 2.5 Uncensored and Seedance 2.0 Mini Uncensored are live on Sogni. Standard Seedance turns away any photo that may contain a real person. These two accept your own likeness, or the likeness of people who gave you explicit, legal consent, so the projects that kept getting blocked can finally run.

Made with Seedance 2.5, the model behind Seedance 2.5 Uncensored. One character image and three storyboard sheets went in as references, and one 30-second 1080p clip came out with dialogue, effects and music. Play it with sound.

The projects that kept getting blocked

Standard Seedance 2.5 and Seedance 2.0 Mini refuse a photo or video that may contain a real person. That stops a lot of ordinary work. The uncensored versions remove that identity likeness restriction and keep everything else about each model the same.

Use your own likeness, or that of people who gave you explicit, legal consent. You confirm that once, in a short agreement in the app.

Keep a face with Reference to Video

  1. At app.sogni.ai, open your username menu and switch off the Sensitive Content Filter. The uncensored models are for adults 18 and older.
  2. Open Seedance and choose Seedance 2.5 Uncensored or Seedance 2.0 Mini Uncensored.
  3. Accept the one-time likeness and consent agreement. One agreement covers both models.
  4. Pick Reference to Video, attach a clear photo of the person, and give it a role in your prompt.
Use @Image1 as the presenter. She walks toward the camera through a sunlit studio and says, "Our spring collection is here." Medium shot, slow push-in, warm light, soft room tone.

Reference to Video holds a face best. Image to Video, with the photo as the first frame, can drift away from the face on big head turns.

Start with Mini Uncensored for lower-cost takes. Step up to 2.5 Uncensored for 1080p, longer clips, bigger reference sets, or to edit and extend a video you already have.

Mature themes

Both models also run on a more permissive content policy, as an opt-in for adults. For mature scenes, Seedance needs detailed reference images or videos that show the anatomy and actions you want. Wan 3 Uncensored needs far less guidance and usually just works. Seedance 2.5 Uncensored is the more powerful model and costs more, but it is harder to steer for mature themes.

What it costs

Both models come at a premium rate above their standard versions and are paid with Premium Spark on every plan. Unlimited members save 5% and Unlimited Pro members save 10%.

Pay-as-you-go prices without a reference video, checked October 19, 2026 (PT). With a reference video, the rate per second is lower and the reference video's length is billed too. The app shows the exact price before you render.

In the API and Creative Agent

Use the model IDs seedance-2-5-uncensored and seedance-2-0-mini-uncensored with the Sogni API and SDKs, or the selectors seedance2-5-uncensored and seedance2-mini-uncensored in Creative Agent workflows and the Creative Agent Skill. Accept the agreement once in the Sogni app with the same account. Until then, jobs return error 4103 and nothing is charged. The Uncensored section of the Seedance guide has the details.
