Snapshot: Veo 3 still rules when you need vlog-style clips with baked-in audio and slick camera moves. Seedance 1.0 Pro outruns everything else for raw speed and multi-shot coherence. Pick the model that matches your workflow, test both inside the BasedLabs AI Video Generator, and switch back and forth with one click.
Where Each Model Shines
Veo 3
- Built-in audio — delivers spoken lines, ambience and music together, perfect for talking-head vlogs or on-the-street explainers.
- 4 K realism — physics-aware water, cloth and volumetric lighting.
- Precision camera control — accepts instructions like “slow dolly-in, dissolve to overhead.”
- Launch it here: Veo 3 tool.
Seedance 1.0 Pro
- Blazing 1080 p renders — five-second sequences land in ~40 s on typical cloud GPUs.
- Native multi-shot storytelling — one prompt yields a coherent cut; no manual stitching.
- Rock-solid motion — handles large, dynamic moves with fewer artefacts.
- Open it here: Try Seedance 1.0.

Benchmark Snapshot (no pricing chat)
- Render speed — Seedance: ~40 s for a 5 s 1080 p clip. Veo 3: ~2–3 min for an 8 s 4 K clip.
- Motion-stability review — Seedance produced 38 % fewer frame artefacts in side-by-side tests.
- Audio out-of-the-box — only Veo 3 ships vlog-ready sound; Seedance expects you to add tracks later.
Example Prompts to Copy
Pro tip: Start from a still frame in the image-to-video converter. Toggle the backend model to see how each engine interprets the same brief.
Veo 3 (vlog-first)
- “Selfie-style 4 K vlog, 20 s: creator stands on a cliff at sunrise, steady handheld shot, warm narration, soft wind ambience, slow dolly-in.”
- “Street-food tour: walking POV, sizzling vendor sounds, playful background beat, quick whip-pan transitions.”
- “Tech unboxing: overhead camera, gentle synth bed, crisp spoken commentary, slow push-in.”
Seedance 1.0 Pro (speed-centric)
- “5 s multi-shot: Shiba Inu skates a sunny boardwalk—wide establish, tight paw close-up, logo reveal.”
- “10 s: medieval blacksmith forging a glowing sword; rapid cut to sparks in slow-mo; heroic back-lit finish.”
- “Looping 5 s backdrop: pastel clouds morph into geometric shapes, seamless right-pan.”
Final Take
- Choose Veo 3 when your video must leave the platform with crisp dialogue, Foley and music already synced, plus cinematic camera moves.
- Go Seedance 1.0 Pro when turnaround speed and bulletproof multi-shot consistency matter more than native sound.
Because both engines sit under the same roof at BasedLabs, fire up the AI Video Generator, swap models as you iterate, and decide which output style propels your next project.
