ElevenLabs launches Chimera, pairing Eleven v4 voices with Seedance 2.5 for talking characters
HeyAmit_ · x · 2026-10-22
ElevenLabs' ElevenCreative has launched Chimera, which pairs its Eleven v4 voice model with the Seedance 2.5 video model to produce realistic videos of characters speaking with rich, emotional voices.
Workflow: create or upload a character in ElevenCreative, write their line, pick or design a voice, then direct the performance with audio tags like [whispers], [laughs] and [yells] to control timing and mood. Per the announcement, Eleven v4 puts the emotion in the voice while Seedance 2.5 carries it onto the face — aimed squarely at creators making character skits.
