How to Make a 30-Second AI Video (Seedance 2.5)
To make a 30-second AI video in one render, open Reviral's studio with Seedance 2.5, set 30 seconds and 720p, write the video as three 10-second beats, add reference pictures if you have them, then render. It costs 212 credits, about $2.64 at the $4.99 Mini Pack rate.

How do you write 30 seconds as three beats?
A beat is one small part of the story. Split the 30 seconds into three beats of 10 seconds each, and write one line per beat that says what moves and where the camera looks.
Beat 1 (0 to 10 seconds) sets the place. Beat 2 (10 to 20 seconds) shows the action. Beat 3 (20 to 30 seconds) lands the ending.
Example beats: "0-10 s: a baker opens her shop door at dawn, warm light spills onto the street. 10-20 s: flour dust floats in the window light as she kneads dough. 20-30 s: the first customer takes a warm loaf and the door bell rings."
