      I think the real challenge with AI video isn’t making one clip. It’s making 20 versions without doing the same edit 20 times. Seedance 2.5 is available on CapCut, and Seedance 2.5 1080p is now live. I’d batch-generate product visuals with AI Image, turn them into different video variations with AI…
