Text-to-Video Is Great for Drafts; Image-to-Video Keeps Faces Consistent
Text-to-video: hand storyboard lines to Jimeng, Seedance, Hailuo, or Wanxiang. Free signup, low price per second.
Text-to-video turns a written shot into footage — ideal for testing mood and blocking. Seedance, Jimeng (Dreamina), MiniMax Hailuo, and Tongyi Wanxiang all do it. Once your drama needs a fixed lead, switch to image-to-video with a Seedream character design underneath.
Both modes live in the same storyboard — no switching sites. Free signup, pay per second.

Does text-to-video change faces between shots?
It can. For continuous storylines, switch to image-to-video and lock your character designs first.
