Why Prompt Structure Matters

Seedance 2.0 responds best when your prompt is structured, not random. A clear prompt improves motion quality, visual consistency, and shot intent.

Use this structure:

  • Subject

  • Environment

  • Camera movement

  • Action timing

  • Lighting and style

  • Output goal
  • A Reusable Prompt Template

    [Subject] in [Environment], camera [Movement], [Action] over [Duration], [Lighting], [Style], cinematic quality.

    Example:

    A young skateboarder in a city park, camera low-angle tracking forward, accelerating then slowing down over 8 seconds, golden hour rim light, soft film grain, cinematic realism.

    Common Mistakes

    • Too short: "girl dancing" gives unstable motion.
    • Too many unrelated styles in one line.
    • No camera instruction.
    • No timing or pacing cue.

    Better Prompt Upgrades

    • Add camera verbs: push-in, orbit, tracking, handheld.
    • Add motion rhythm: slow start, then fast pan.
    • Add continuity constraints: keep same outfit and face details.

    Quick Checklist

    • Is the subject clear?
    • Is the camera move explicit?
    • Is the action sequence time-based?
    • Is style consistent?
    Try this directly in /create and iterate one variable at a time.
