Seedream 4.5 demos cover multi-image reference stacks, day-to-night scene edits, e-commerce type, gym KVs, and material swaps. Each row below maps an official capability to brief fields VidMage tracks before generation.
Official 4.5 materials show multi-image editing that preserves reference details—tag each upload by demo role (fragrance hero, gold-foil texture, gym palette, cafe interior) so large stacks stay interpretable on BytePlus or Dreamina.
The official 4.5 page demos a miniature yurt camp relit from day to night—brief one scoped change per pass (sky, window glow) and list what must not drift in scale or layout.
Seedream 4.5 lists a platform-style KV with verbatim headline and price strings—provide Today's Hot Sale, $9.99, and margin rules when legal or brand review depends on readable commerce type.
Official demos include black-orange gym promotional KVs with layered type—name target crops in VidMage so one dynamic key visual can ship as banner, feed, and story without rebuilding art direction.
The official 4.5 page demos coordinated triptychs—blueberry, marshmallow, ginkgo paired with hand-drawn ink lines. Brief the three subjects, ink rhythm, and shared paper tone so creative direction stays cohesive across the set.

VidMage is where you lock reference stacks, verbatim label strings, version choice (4.5 vs 5.0 Lite), batch scene lists, and moderation guardrails—then hand a review-ready brief to your generation workflow.
Tag each reference upload—face, product, palette, wardrobe—so fourteen-image stacks stay interpretable on BytePlus or Dreamina.
Poster headlines, SKU labels, and footnotes live as copy-paste strings—not paraphrased placeholders—for brand and legal review.
Capture whether the brief needs 4.5 quality-first stills or 5.0 Lite search and reasoning before you burn credits on the wrong version.
Number lifestyle or catalog scenes with shared anchors so multi-output batches do not shuffle wardrobe or lighting mid-set.
Capture whether the job runs on Dreamina, ModelArk, or a partner integration—and keep billing and policy questions tied to that official route.
Mirror likeness, celebrity, and regulated-vertical notes from host Terms into the brief before generation—not after a block.
Export prompt, references, version notes, and chosen variants as a review bundle instead of scattered host tabs.
When Seedream stills feed Seedance or other VidMage video tools, keep crop, type, and character notes attached to the exported frame.
