Wake Up New Seedance + Qwen Dropped
New: Turn images into videos with sound
Shaun McCallum
January 12, 2026Two powerful new models just landed in Fenestra - Seedance 1.5 Pro (Video Generation) and Qwen Image Edit 2511 (Image Editing). Together they unlock a much smoother way to edit, animate, and bring your images to life with sound.
If you work with architectural concepts, design visuals, or mood-driven imagery, this update is a big one
Seedance 1.5 Pro
Seedance lets you turn a single still image into a short animated video with audio.
That means:
- Add motion to static renders
- Create atmospheric clips from one image
- Generate sound to match the scene
- Bring concepts to life for presentations or social content
You don’t need a full image pipeline. One generated image input is enough.
Qwen Image Edit 2511
Qwen makes image editing feel effortless. Just describe what you want in plain language.
You can:
- Change camera angles
- Adjust lighting or mood
- Refine details
- Explore different design directions
Why this combo works so well
Together, Seedance and Qwen make it easy to go from:
Still image → Edited view → Animated clip with audio
I used this workflow to create multiple views of a desert-based architectural concept and then turned one of them into a short video with sound. The whole process stayed inside Fenestra.
It’s ideal for:
Concept exploration
- Client presentations
- Social content
- Early-stage design storytelling
If you want to experiment with motion, atmosphere, and fast visual iteration, this is one of the smoothest workflows we’ve added so far!
