Seedance 2.5 Aspect Ratio Guide

Aspect ratio changes the shot itself. A vertical frame needs different blocking and camera travel than a wide frame, so it is usually better to decide the delivery format before generation rather than crop blindly afterward.

How GenVideoKit structures Seedance 2.5 prompts

Keep the prompt visually dense but efficient. Prioritize readable action sequencing, shot progression, rhythm, reference continuity and a clear visual payoff. State subject motion, camera behavior and timing without unnecessary cinematic filler.

Production shortcut

Choose the final delivery ratio before generation when possible. Reframing after the fact is useful for secondary versions, but it cannot recover composition that was never generated.

16:9

Useful for wide compositions, landscape movement, YouTube and cinematic delivery. Give lateral action enough room to travel.

9:16

Build vertically from the start for Reels, Shorts and TikTok. Keep faces and products away from extreme top and bottom crop zones.

1:1

Works for centered product and social compositions. Avoid camera travel that depends on wide horizontal space.

Provider interfaces can expose different supported ratios or crop behavior. GenVideoKit treats aspect ratio as a composition decision first; verify the exact output options in the provider you render with.
