    API wellhead Christmas-tree valves hold in Seedance 2.5 at 47 credits

    This is the API valve stack, not a u-pick fir; I2V the photographed tree on Seedance 2.5 via the image-to-video tool (4–30s, 720p, 47cr, native audio), never a folded Seedance I2V URL, overlay working pressure, and do not generate a talking pumper — Christmas-tree farms already own species-price overlays.

    This is the API valve stack, not a u-pick fir; I2V the photographed tree on Seedance 2.5 via the image-to-video tool (4–30s, 720p, 47cr, native audio), never a folded Seedance I2V URL, overlay working pressure, and do not generate a talking pumper — Christmas-tree farms already own species-price overlays.

    A wellhead Christmas tree that books is this stack: master, swab, wings, choke, the API 6A geometry a specifier will match to a drawing. Motion is allowed on the photographed valves. A choose-and-cut fir row with a painted price stake is a different farm and a different post. Do not grow needles on a wing valve.

    The API valve stack, not a u-pick fir

    Procurement is matching iron: flange rating, valve count, the choke body, the gauge cluster as it actually ships. Photograph the tree you sell — catalog still or the installed plate on your wellhead. Square to the stack. Process connections in frame. Nameplates readable only if the glyphs on them are already yours and already true. That still is the print.

    Text-to-video of “an oilfield Christmas tree at golden hour, desert pad” invents a cousin stack: extra wings, a different choke, a pad that is not the lease. Average is a stock wellsite, not your API tree. If the still has to be yours, the still is a photo. Motion is allowed. Invention is not.

    Keep people off the generate. A photoreal pumper at the wing is a likeness and a consult you did not staff. Empty hardware is the spec. Do not prompt the model to “clean” the pad; erasing a trailer redraws the lower master. Do not first-last a fir lot into a wellhead. Two different objects is a morph. If the only photo is a tagged Fraser row, you are on the farm post, not this one.

    Seedance 2.5 I2V via the image-to-video tool

    Image-to-video starts from that file. Frame one is the contract. Prompt camera and physics: a slow orbit, light on the wing valves, a hold on the choke. Do not re-describe the tree. Re-describing “API 6A Christmas tree, 5,000 psi, dual wing” is how the model draws a second stack.

    Turn a photo into a video is the named one-still job: attach the catalog jpeg, describe the hold, pick an image-to-video model. Cost is priced per model, shown before you confirm. It is not a lease tour and it is not a pumper VO.

    Seedance 2.5 is the family hold: 4s–30s in one pass, 720p ceiling, listed 47 credits, native audio. I2V is the still-to-motion job on that family. The published URL is this slug, not a second Seedance path. Do not invent a folded I2V URL. There is no live /models/seedance-2-5-image-to-video. Run the family through the image-to-video tool.

    Stitching four short clips is how a wing jumps. Iterate at 4s or 5s until the valve count holds. Thirty seconds is the identity ceiling, not a default. Do not morph flange rating. Do not turn a single wing into a dual-wing tree in flight. If the generate redraws those, it is a mis-ship.

    Overlay working pressure; do not letter the gauge

    Working pressure is a claim. 5,000 psi, a temperature class — those digits are why a buyer opens the listing. A 5k that becomes a 10k for six frames is a mis-ship. A gauge-shaped scribble is not a rating. Do not ask Seedance to typeset either. Video models redraw letterforms every frame.

    Add a text overlay to a video burns one authored line for the whole clip — top, center, or bottom. That is the working pressure. It does not transcribe. Overlay after picture lock. Swap 5,000 psi for the next SKU without regenerating the stack. Add a text overlay to my video is the named agent job for the same burn.

    If the physical gauge is already in the still and the number is true, keep it. If the letters in the pixels are wrong, crop or overlay. Crop to the ratio you will ship before you overlay.

    Native audio is on. Write a quiet pad or silence. A silent brief still gets a soundtrack you did not choose. Quoted VO about “how this well should be brought on” is how you get a mouth you did not cast.

    No talking pumper; farms already own species-price overlays

    A constructed pumper pointing at a wing and prescribing a procedure is a presenter you did not hire. Put a real named person on camera when the video tells a viewer how to operate a well — or do not tell them. Do not prompt “pumper explains Christmas tree over the wellhead.” Keep lips out of frame. Working pressure still goes on as overlay.

    Christmas-tree farms: lot stills plus species-price overlays, not a u-pick ripeness reel already spent the fir lot: tagged row, species, posted price. That page is inventory on the ground you cut. This page is an API valve stack. Do not twin the farm overlay playbook onto a wellhead.

    If a sentence in the brief contains “wing valve,” “API 6A,” or “working pressure,” you are on the photographed tree. If it contains “Fraser” or “choose-and-cut,” you are on the farm post. Overlay the rating. Skip the talking pumper.

    FAQ

    Can I text-to-video a wellhead Christmas tree and skip the stack photo?

    You can. You will get a cousin valve count and a pad you do not lease. OEM is the tree you photographed. Seedance 2.5 still-to-motion from that still, via the image-to-video tool, is the hold. The live model URL is Seedance 2.5, not a folded I2V slug.

    Does Seedance 2.5 add a soundtrack if I do not ask for one?

    Yes. Native audio is on. Write a quiet pad or silence. A silent brief still gets a mix. Quoted pumper talk in the prompt does not become a title card. Overlay working pressure after lock.

    Why not generate the psi on the gauge instead of overlaying it?

    Because a model-lettered gauge is a fake rating. Overlay the real working-pressure string on a locked stack take. When the datasheet changes, change the overlay, not the tree.

    Is this the same as the Christmas-tree farm post?

    No. That post is tagged fir inventory plus species-price overlays. This page is the API valve stack you photograph: overlay working pressure, no talking pumper, no needles on a wing.
