From one portrait to an action scene

The sample uses the portrait on the left as its character reference. Notice how the dark jacket and white shirt carry through the running and rooftop shots.

A new take on the chase
Your photo supplies the character reference. The model generates the action from the built-in story; this sample is not sent as a reference video. Cuts, jumps and likeness can differ each time.
Action music and scene sounds
The template asks for a driving beat with dhol drums, jump whooshes, market noise, a police whistle and a bus engine. Audio is AI-generated, without scripted dialogue or lyrics; timing and sound details can vary.

How to make an AI police chase video

  1. Cast your main character

    Upload one photo of a person or animal you have permission to animate. No source video or written prompt is needed.

  2. Choose a model and check the quote

    Choose from the Seedance models listed in the studio. This preset keeps the output format fixed; the selected model determines the credit quote.

  3. Generate, watch and download

    Play the whole clip with sound. Check the character after each cut and through the jumps before downloading.

Inside the five-shot chase

These five frames come from the sample above. Your video can interpret the same story differently.

What is an AI police chase video?

It is a short fictional action scene that casts a person or pet from a photo as the lead. The market gives the chase a clear starting point, the wide shots show how the action builds, and the final close-up lets viewers recognize the character again. This template fits that arc into a ten-second vertical clip.

What can you make with the chase template?

  • Open a video with a mini action trailer

    Cast yourself in the chase and use it as the opener for a short. Add your title over the closing close-up in your video editor, then cut to the main video.

  • Give your pet an action-comedy cameo

    Start with your pet's everyday photo, then cut to its chase scene. Add a caption that sets up the joke, such as “when the treat bag opens.”

  • Make a photo-to-video reveal

    Show the original portrait briefly before the market shot. The jump from a still photo to a moving camera gives the viewer something specific to compare.

Common issues and how to improve the result

  • The lead looks different after a cut

    Compare a clear frame from the opening with the final close-up. If the face or coat markings drift, try a sharper photo that shows those features clearly. Keep the model the same to compare the two photos.

  • A jump or climb looks awkward

    Pause on the bus landing or the climb and check how the limbs move. If the reference crops the body tightly, try a wider photo that shows the person's build or the pet's legs. Review the same moment in the new clip.

Choose a photo for your chase scene

Keep the face easy to see

Choose a well-lit front-facing or three-quarter portrait with one subject. Avoid sunglasses, covered faces and strong beauty filters that hide recognizable features.

Show the clothes you want to reference

For people, include the shoulders and upper body when possible. The model uses visible clothes as a reference and invents areas outside the crop, so unseen trousers or shoes can change.

Give pets their own clear silhouette

Use a photo of one animal with its face, coat markings and as much of its body as possible visible. An unobstructed silhouette gives more reference for the running pose.

Police chase video questions

Can I change the chase story?

This preset uses its built-in five-shot story. To create a different setting or ending, start a new scene in text-to-video.

Can I change the length or aspect ratio?

The output settings are fixed for this preset and shown in the studio and default quote. You can switch the listed models; check the updated credit cost before generating.

Can a cat or dog be the main character?

Yes. Upload one animal photo. The template asks for the animal's own fur, markings and four-legged body. The sample shown here uses a person; animal motion and anatomy can vary between takes.

Are credits returned if generation fails?

A confirmed failed task returns its reserved credits. Tasks with an uncertain outcome stay reserved while checked. Successfully delivered videos generally do not qualify for a credit return.

Can I make a police car chase?

This preset follows a person or animal on foot, with a bus appearing in the story. For a scene focused on cars or racing, describe it in text-to-video.

How many credits does this template use?

Default settings cost 45 credits with Seedance 2.0 Fast at 10s, 720p and 9:16. Review the studio quote before generating, especially if you change the model or output settings.
