Wan 2.7 makes clips of up to 15 seconds, and Alibaba says it can draw on thousands of style combinations. On DreamBench it can bring every scene of your video to life in the look you describe, and you can redo any scene on its own.

**What Wan 2.7 is.** Wan 2.7 is a video model from Alibaba Cloud’s Wan family, launched in April 2026 as a set of 4 models: text-to-video, image-to-video, reference-to-video and video editing. It makes clips of 2 to 15 seconds at 720p or 1080p. Alibaba built it for style and performance: it offers thousands of style combinations and more than 50 finely tuned emotional expressions. When its image-to-video model has no soundtrack to follow, it adds background music or sound effects to suit the picture. In August 2026 Alibaba followed it with Wan 3.0, which doubles the length of a single generation to 30 seconds.

**What Wan 2.7 is good at.**
- Thousands of styles: Alibaba says Wan 2.7 offers thousands of style combinations, so a scene can be manga ink, 16-bit pixel art or 3D animation rather than live action.
- Faces that show feeling: With more than 50 finely tuned emotional expressions to draw on, Wan 2.7’s characters can react with a wince, a smirk or a burst of laughter.
- Music and effects built in: Wan 2.7 adds background music or sound effects that suit the scene, and on DreamBench you decide whether to keep them.

**Wan 2.7 on DreamBench.**
- On DreamBench, Wan 2.7 animates an opening frame for each clip. DreamBench draws that frame in the style you asked for, from your reference images or the characters, props and places it designs for you.
- Wan 2.7 adds music or sound effects to fit the picture, not lip-synced speech, because DreamBench doesn’t give it a voice track to follow. The sound switch in the composer keeps that sound or removes it, and the price is the same either way.
- On DreamBench, a Wan 2.7 clip doesn’t cut to a new setting partway through. When your story moves somewhere new, the change comes at the start of the next clip, or the camera travels there on screen.
- Through Alibaba’s own tools, Wan 2.7 can also lip-sync to a voice track you supply, continue an existing clip and edit video from plain-language instructions. On DreamBench, you guide each scene with your prompt and reference images, and you change it by giving it new direction.

**Prompt ideas.**
- Wok fire at the night market: Black-and-white manga animation, widescreen 16:9. At a crowded night-market stall, a young cook tosses noodles high out of a blazing wok while steam curls into inked swirls and speed lines burst behind her. She catches them without looking and slams the bowl down with a grin. Screentone shading throughout, with one splash of color: the red chilli oil. Sizzling oil, clattering pans, a roaring flame.
- The pixel garden: 16-bit pixel-art animation in 4:3. A tiny wizard sprite waters a garden on a floating island at sunset. Each seed pops up in a few frames: a turnip, a sunflower, then a mushroom that sneezes a cloud of spores and sends the wizard tumbling. Chunky pixel clouds drift past. Retro game blips, a springy boing and a sparkle chime as sound effects.
- The robot baker: Stylized 3D animation, vertical 9:16. In a cozy kitchen, a round copper robot bakes a birthday cake: it cracks eggs with a pincer, spins the whisk far too fast and splatters cream across its face, then proudly lights a single candle and blinks its round screen eyes at the camera. Clattering pans, a whirring motor, a tiny ding.
- Paper plane at dusk: Anime, widescreen 16:9. A schoolgirl sits on a rooftop at dusk and folds a paper plane from a page of her notebook. She lets it go, and the wind carries it out over the city as the streetlights flicker on below. Soft cel shading, a pink and orange sky, her hair lifting in the breeze. Wind, distant traffic, a gentle piano melody.
