Your product, your character, your scene \u2014 consistent across every frame. And a real human face to bring it all to life. Until now, neither of those were possible in Kittl. Both of those change today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This week we&#8217;re shipping two updates to Seedance 2.0. Reference mode, which lets you upload up to 8 photos and turn them into a video. And human faces, now fully supported in your AI-generated video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New: Reference mode with Seedance 2.0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Upload your photos and turn them into a video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Reference mode, now available in Seedance 2.0, you can upload up to 8 images and use them as the visual foundation of your video. Unlike Start and End Frame, where your first and last image define the opening and closing shot, Reference mode works differently. The images you upload are not placed at the start or end. Instead, they appear throughout the video based on what you upload and how you prompt it. You stay in control of what shows up and when.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here&#8217;s how to use it:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Option one: Use the Reference Mode in <strong>smart board<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make sure your images are on an Artboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click \u201cAdd Video Board\u201d. A video board will appear on your canvas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Drag your other Artboards and connect them to the video board.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Generate Video panel opens on its own. You\u2019ll see your images loaded as references.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Type what you want the video to look like, pick Seedance 2.0, and make sure Reference Mode is selected.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hit Generate.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"720\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1316 \/ 720;\" width=\"1316\" autoplay controls loop muted src=\"https:\/\/kittlb-26937.roald-dfw.servebolt.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/26Jun-product-updates-1.webm\" playsinline><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Option two: Use the Reference Mode by <strong>selecting your images<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Select the images you want to use to create your video.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click Generate Video in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the panel that opens, click Upload and add your images.

What\u2019s new today: you can now bring your own human reference. Upload an image that contains a human face and use it to guide your video, so your character looks closer to your vision and stays consistent across clips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your face. Your character. Your creative direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here\u2019s how this feature works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pick a template or start from scratch.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add a Videoboard to your canvas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose Seedance 2.0 or Seedance 2.0 Fast model as your model.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Generate and iterate until it&#8217;s right.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Export.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We know features are only as good as what you can do with them. <strong>So here&#8217;s exactly what this opens up for your business.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id24205_e2686f-7e > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id24205_e2686f-7e > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id24205_e2686f-7e > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id24205_e2686f-7e > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id24205_e2686f-7e > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id24205_e2686f-7e > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id24205_e2686f-7e alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c > .kt-inside-inner-col{padding-top:8px;padding-right:8px;padding-bottom:8px;padding-left:8px;}.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c > .kt-inside-inner-col{border-top:1px solid #e0e4eb;border-right:1px solid #e0e4eb;border-bottom:1px solid #e0e4eb;border-left:1px solid #e0e4eb;}.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:16px;border-top-right-radius:16px;border-bottom-right-radius:16px;border-bottom-left-radius:16px;}.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c > .kt-inside-inner-col{border-top:1px solid #e0e4eb;border-right:1px solid #e0e4eb;border-bottom:1px solid #e0e4eb;border-left:1px solid #e0e4eb;flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c > .kt-inside-inner-col{border-top:1px solid #e0e4eb;border-right:1px solid #e0e4eb;border-bottom:1px solid #e0e4eb;border-left:1px solid #e0e4eb;flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column24205_91cda6-3c kittl-template-block\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/kittlb-26937.roald-dfw.servebolt.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/26Jun-product-updates-3.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kittl.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/26Jun-product-updates-3.webp 900w, https:\/\/www.kittl.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/26Jun-product-updates-3-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.kittl.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/26Jun-product-updates-3-768x576.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Content for your social media<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Upload your product photos with Reference mode and generate a consistent video in one click.
