Wow. First time I've heard the term "microdrama".

Also, the way they were paired up as couples who looked like they might be compatible was kind of weird. Unless this was actually a combination filmmaking and matchmaking event?? Or they were already couples.

Kind of interesting how quickly AI video has gone from a joke to a usable tool. Anyone tried Seedance 2.5?

Actually in Chinese we say "Short drama". They are usually the short plays with 1-2 minute episodes that are filmed vertically for smartphone audiences. Super popular in China and out of China now.

Capcut's AI features use Seedance 2.5 under the hood.
