Paper city miniature
Seedance 2 team · Updated
A 10-second paper-craft city made with Seedance 2.5 on Seedance 2 from one text prompt: folded paper buildings and trees along paper streets, with a drone-like glide and soft paper sounds generated with the picture. It cost 120 credits at 720p and took 4 min 41 s.
The video
The prompt
A miniature city made entirely of folded and cut paper: paper buildings pop up from a flat sheet, a paper tram moves along paper tracks, tiny paper trees sway, the camera glides low through the streets like a drone, soft daylight, handcrafted stop-motion feel. Sound: gentle paper rustles, a tiny tram bell, light whimsical music.
Settings: text to video, 10 seconds, 720p, 16:9, sound on.

How this was made
Made on 2026-11-12 through the Seedance 2 MCP server (https://www.seedance2.net/mcp), the same way Claude, ChatGPT or Codex would call it, on a paid Seedance 2 account, so there is no watermark. Credits and times are what each run actually charged and took.

Questions
- Can AI make stop-motion style videos?
- It can imitate a handcrafted, stop-motion look like this paper city from a text prompt; it is generated, not real stop-motion.
