A 21:9 request
This asks for a cinematic wide frame from Seedance 2.5 at 1080p.
curl -X POST "https://api.sume.com/v1/videos" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $SUME_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \

"model": "seedance-2.5",
"prompt": "A train crosses a canyon bridge, anamorphic look",
"duration": 8,
"resolution": "1080p",
"aspect_ratio": "21:9"
}'What if you need 21:9 from a model without it
Render at the widest supported ratio, 16:9, and crop to 21:9 afterwards with the video filter. That throws away part of the frame, so frame your prompt with the crop in mind.
Lengths and resolutions for the 21:9 models
Seedance 2.5 runs 4 to 30 seconds and Seedance 2 and its variants 4 to 15, all at 480p, 720p and 1080p. MiniMax H3 runs 5 to 15 seconds at native 480p and 768p, and H3 Max adds 1080p. Pick on length first.
