Reference to Video 2.0
Render Reference To Video 2.0 through the same job workflow as Seedance — from $0.270 per render.
What it renders
Vidu Reference-to-Video 2.0 turns references into videos that preserve characters, objects, and environments with Multi-Entity Consistency. Hand over the model id and your shot settings, keep the job id, and collect the finished clip once the job lands. Pricing is per completed render from $0.270 and is locked in before the first frame is queued.
Motion-first defaults
Reference to Video 2.0 opens on workable shot framing before you tune anything.
Async by design
Renders run as background jobs; poll at your own pace instead of holding a connection open.

Results arrive as a downloadable asset from private storage with a short-lived link.

Before you wire it in
How do I start a Reference to Video 2.0 render?
Authenticate, check the live model list for vidu/reference-to-video-2.0, then POST the model id and shot settings to /v1/jobs with an Idempotency-Key. Poll the job id until it settles, then download the clip.
What can I control on Reference to Video 2.0?
Reference to Video 2.0 accepts aspect_ratio, images, movement_amplitude, prompt, seed. Unknown keys are rejected before the render is queued, so a typo never burns a job.
What does a Reference to Video 2.0 render cost?
Pricing is per render and starts at $0.270. The exact figure for your settings is returned by the model list and reserved before the job is accepted.
Is the same Seedance key valid for Reference to Video 2.0?
Yes — Reference to Video 2.0 runs on the same account, key and wallet as Seedance. Each endpoint is enabled individually, so verify the route before you depend on it.
Why does my Reference to Video 2.0 job show as queued?
Video rendering is asynchronous: queued and running are normal. Keep polling until the job succeeds, fails or asks for review, and never resubmit the same Idempotency-Key expecting a second render.
