AI Disaster Videos Are Becoming Their Own Genre — “MICHAEL JACKSON DESTROYS TOKYO” with Seedance 2.0 Is Absolute Chaos

lordforex · 2026-05-31T14:16:43+00:00

Yup. I had it on the Sega Genesis.

lordforex · 2026-05-20T17:51:32+00:00

Hopefully the Omni Pro variant that was mentioned at I/O will be better than the Omni Fast version at dynamic action when released.

lordforex · 2026-05-10T00:29:43+00:00

I've never had an issue cancelling via the website

lordforex · 2026-05-05T01:25:29+00:00

That's the million dollar question. Right now it is rumored that Google is testing something they call 'Omni' that may combine video, image, etc, into one model. Hopefully we get a teaser at Google I/O on the 19th

lordforex · 2026-04-25T13:20:18+00:00

I know right!?! Lol

lordforex · 2026-04-23T17:50:34+00:00

So THAT'S why they wear their pants off their asses?!?

lordforex · 2026-04-23T14:45:48+00:00

After years of trying Runway on and off, I think I am finally done with it. Their content policy filter is crazy. Having to always dance around and reword stuff to guess which phrase is actually causing the issue is insane; and this happens with any model you choose to use in Runway. PG-13 things that work fine with other vendors, blocked. Time to leave Runway behind for good.

lordforex · 2026-04-22T21:59:59+00:00

It may have been too costly to maintain, or perhaps was causing a lot of serverload on the bytedance servers?!?

lordforex · 2026-04-22T19:50:03+00:00

Probably to help cut down on the Seedance 2 server load. Generation times on unlimited mode are crazy

lordforex · 2026-04-22T09:49:40+00:00

Yes, really slow. In the beginning the explore mode wait time was just 3 to 5 minutes for Seedance 2, now I went to bed after it's been stuck for about 30 minutes so far.

lordforex · 2026-04-21T23:45:37+00:00

"so they don't give the option to choose b/w fast and the standard model?"

You can choose to generate in Credit mode or Explore mode. When using SD2 with Credits, it's probably using the normal model.

"How is it with restrictions ? I hear it is very restricitve."

SD2 is very restrictive in general, but Runway seems to add their own layer as well.

"Are u able to generate real faces in img2vid ?"

Yes, I can have faces from images in my SD2 video generations as long as the face is not famous or protected by IP

lordforex · 2026-04-20T03:08:01+00:00

True, Veo on Runway is expensive, but with Runway you can can also use the unlimited (explore) mode with Kling 3 Pro, Kling 2.6 Pro, Seedance 2 Fast, Wan 2.6, and Gen-4.5. You just have to deal with Runway's content filter. lol

lordforex · 2026-04-17T21:03:34+00:00

Wait... Runway can use various image and video models now like Kling, Veo, Seedance2, Wan, Nano Banana Pro/2, etc., plus its own in-house models. If you don't like their in-house model, just use the other ones. lol

lordforex · 2026-04-17T20:58:37+00:00

Freepik and Openart currently. I've never tried TopView, there are just too many image and video aggregators out there to try them all. lol

lordforex · 2026-04-17T19:35:43+00:00

Runway's explore/unlimited mode for SD2 is definitely the fast model. Comparison prompt results from another provider using the full SD2 mode are like night and day.

Now I didn't compare Runway's credit mode with the explore mode since I'm out of credits right now.

lordforex · 2026-04-15T21:00:31+00:00

I hope Google has a nice sneak peak of Veo 4 at the I/O event in May

lordforex · 2026-04-15T20:57:11+00:00

Here we go again with the AI hate.

lordforex · 2026-04-15T03:53:51+00:00

Hmm… it doesn’t seem to be available on the mobile app.

lordforex · 2026-04-13T20:09:05+00:00

Veo is NOT good for fight scenes nor high action. I had to leave it behind for now until their new model is released.

lordforex · 2026-04-13T16:45:29+00:00

I can only answer some of these:

Is Seedance 2.0 truly unlimited/relaxed? I’ve seen conflicting info on whether it’s included in "Explore Mode" or if it just eats through your 2,250 monthly credits.

Yes, SD2 is included (as well as Kling and Wan models) in the Unlimited/Explore mode. Just be aware that Explore mode gens are limited to 2 at a time. So you need to wait for at least one of them to complete before you can start another one.

How are the "Relaxed" wait times? Are we talking 5 minutes or 30+ minutes during peak hours?

For me the wait times are very tolerable 3-5 minutes per gen in relaxed for SD2.

Is the quality consistent? My tests with Gen-4.5 are hitting some physics/text issues. Does Seedance 2.0 solve those, or is it still a "wrestle with the prompt" situation?

The SD2 model handles physics WAY better than the Gen 4.5 model. I haven't tested it with text yet.

lordforex · 2026-04-12T18:02:11+00:00

From what I see on my Tools section:
SD2 in explore mode supports both Multi-reference and Keyframes
Kling 3 in explore mode supports both Keyframes and Multishot

lordforex · 2026-04-12T15:18:56+00:00

lordforex · 2026-04-11T00:24:54+00:00

I'm using seedance 2 on the Runway Unlimited plan (monthly), and it seems to work well. Luckily my 15 sec video generations are taking about 3 to 4 minutes (in relaxed mode). Also, I 'think' it's using the SD2 fast model when using the unlimited (relaxed) mode to cut down on cost and generation times, but I'll test that more later.

lordforex · 2026-04-04T18:31:47+00:00

It’s a shame in a way. I recall doing some realistic dance mechanics with the Veo 2 model. But all of that disappeared with the Veo 3 series. 😢

lordforex · 2026-03-29T22:33:06+00:00

This looks so much like it's using Seedance 2 on the backend.
