## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability fal-ai-queue-seedance-2-5-reference-to-video-d8443ec6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Take this product photo (https://example.com/product.jpg) and animate it into a 5-second 720p landscape video using Seedance 2.5 — make it look like the product is gently rotating.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to animate a still reference image into a video clip using ByteDance's Seedance 2.5 model, especially when you need explicit control over resolution (480p or 720p), duration, and aspect ratio. Prefer this over text-to-video endpoints when you have a specific source image to preserve visual identity. Use the async fal-queue variant over fal.run when generation may exceed ~100 seconds. Avoid if you need video-to-video transformation (video references are not supported).

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or inaccessible reference image URL returns an error
- Unsupported resolution or aspect ratio combination rejected at submission
- Duration value outside allowed range causes validation failure
- Queue timeout if generation takes longer than platform limits
- Dynamic pricing fluctuation may cause payment authorization issues
- No video references allowed as input — only still images accepted

## How this service works

Seedance 2.5 reference-to-video (480p/720p; explicit duration/aspect; no video references) (dynamic pricing)

## Output

Returns a request ID immediately (async queue model); polling the status endpoint yields the final generated video URL along with metadata such as resolution, duration, and seed. The video is a rendered MP4 clip derived from the reference image at the specified resolution and duration.
