One rider. One bike. One forest. One uninterrupted 30-second take.
I wanted to push Seedance 2.5 beyond a beautiful AI shot and test whether it could maintain character identity, bicycle geometry, environment, physics, and complex camera movement throughout one continuous sequence.
From macro drivetrain tracking and high-speed trail movement to a 360° bullet-time orbit and landing — the goal was simple:
Make the impossible camera feel completely real.
Created with Seedance 2.5 for the #ContraSeedanceChallenge.
Finally posting this, back in May we worked on a trial project for Boona 🚿
Boona is a tandem shower brand, which was our first time working on a brand like this but it was soooooooo fun!
The brief was open enough that we had to dig, not just the Instagram feed but the website, the product itself, what it actually feels like to share that experience with someone. Everything kept coming back to the same thing: intimacy, closeness, two people in a moment that's usually just one.
We didn't end up working together but the founder's feedback made it worth sharing 🤩
I don't usually share my trial work but I'm thinking it's about time to do it, what do you think?
Glad you decided to share it, trial work like this is often more interesting than the polished final stuff because you can actually see the thinking behind it. 'Goosebumps before the water even hits' is such a strong line, did that come from the brief or from digging into the product yourself?
Getting out of your confort zone might be one of the best moves in Video Editing. Why?
This was about a year ago. The style, although simple, took a loot of time and effort to recreate.
I took inspiration on a video sent by one of my friends and on that day, that video inspired me to create this.
It was my first attempt at doing something completely different than usual, but it turned out actually great!
And the best part? I still delivered the video in time without any other revisions to make.
Delivering something you'd never tried before with zero revision rounds is honestly rare. What was the one technique in here that felt the most outside your comfort zone while you were making it?
