Human and Pet use Seedance 2.5 to insert you or your pet into the original AI clip directly: the identical snowy setting, the same camera movement, the same close-up and pacing. Mouth movements follow the bear's, giving an approximation of the words rather than perfect lip sync. Processing can take several minutes.
Bear behind you creates a fresh scene directly from your photo with Seedance 2.5, without intermediate images, preserving your facial features. It captures the unsettling "cursed polar bear" aesthetic: a rigid bear, a slow camera push, dark evergreens and subtle analog distortion.
