Seedance 2.5 Character Consistency: Multi-Reference Character Videos
Character consistency is the hardest part of AI video. A character that changes face, outfit, or proportions across shots breaks the whole scene. Seedance 2.5’s multi-reference control helps lock character identity across scenes — useful for virtual influencers, brand characters, and short dramas.
A single reference image gives the model one view. Multiple references from different angles teach Seedance 2.5 the character’s face, outfit, and style from several perspectives, so it can keep the identity when the camera moves or the scene changes.
More references is not always better. A small, high-quality set (3-6 images) that clearly shows the character is more reliable than a large, noisy set. Quality and clarity beat quantity.
Even with references, re-describe the character inline in every scene prompt. Mention face, hair, outfit, and key style traits. This reinforces identity and reduces drift between shots.
Example prompts
