How do I make a product video ad in ChatGPT?

Seedance 2 team · Updated

Connect Seedance 2 to ChatGPT, give it your product photo, and ask for an ad: ChatGPT writes the shot, Seedance 2 renders it with Seedance 2.5 or Seedance 2.0 from the photo as the first frame or as a reference, and the finished clip comes back in the chat.

Connect Seedance 2 to ChatGPT

  1. In ChatGPT settings, create a custom connector named Seedance 2 with the URL https://www.seedance2.net/mcp. Where the menu sits depends on your plan; screens for each are on https://www.seedance2.net/plugin.
  2. Sign in with your Seedance 2 account and approve the connection. New accounts get free credits, no card needed.
  3. In a new chat, turn the Seedance 2 connector on and ask for a video, naming the Seedance model you want.

A workflow that keeps the product exact

  1. Share one clean product photo (a public link, or upload it from Claude Code or Codex).
  2. Ask for image to video with the photo as the first frame when the opening shot must match it exactly; ask for reference to video when the product should appear in a new scene.
  3. Start with a short Seedance 2.0 Fast or 480p draft to check motion, then render the final at 1080p.
  4. Ask for 9:16 for Reels, TikTok and Shorts, 16:9 for YouTube and web.

Prompts to try

  • Use this photo as the first frame. Slow orbit around the bottle, water droplets catch the light, dark studio, premium commercial look, 6 seconds, 9:16.
  • Reference video: the sneaker from these photos lands on a wet rooftop at sunset, splash in slow motion, camera tilts up to the skyline, 8 seconds, with sound.
  • Three 5-second variants of this lipstick ad: marble table, pastel studio, golden-hour window. Same product, same framing.

What happens when you ask

  1. The assistant calls list_models and tells you the credit price of the settings it picked.
  2. It calls generate_video, which returns a task id right away.
  3. It polls get_task until the video is done, usually one to several minutes, and gives you the file.
  4. If a generation fails, its credits are refunded automatically.

Questions

Can I use the videos in ads?
Paid Seedance 2 plans include commercial use and remove the watermark that free-plan Seedance and Veo videos carry.
How do I keep the product looking the same across shots?
Use the same photo as the first frame or as a reference in every shot, and describe the product the same way in each prompt.
