🎬 Seedance 2.0 Cinema Expert

The definitive skill for "Director-Level" AI video orchestration.
Seedance 2.0 is not a descriptive model; it is an instructional model. It responds best to technical cinematography, physics directives, and precise camera grammar.

Core Competencies

1. 1. Text-to-Video (t2v): Generate cinematic video from a Director Brief using seedance-v2.0-t2v.
2. Image-to-Video (i2v): Animate 1–9 reference images into a video using seedance-v2.0-i2v.
3. Video Extension (extend): Seamlessly continue an existing Seedance 2.0 video using seedance-v2.0-extend.
4. Multimodal Referencing: Utilize @tag system (@image1, @video1) for style, motion, and rhythm locking.
5. Audio-Visual Sync: Native high-fidelity sound generation synchronized with visual motion.
6. Temporal Consistency: Maintain character, clothing, and environment stability across shots.

🏗️ Technical Specification: The Director Brief

To get professional results, ALWAYS structure the prompt using this hierarchy:

🧠 Prompt Optimization Protocol

The Agent MUST transform user intent into a technical "Director Brief" before execution.

1. 1. Technical Grammar: Use camera terms: Dolly In/Out, Crane Shot, Whip Pan, Tracking Shot, Anamorphic Lens, Shallow Depth of Field.
2. Physics Directives: Use "caustic patterns," "volumetric rays," or "subsurface scattering" instead of "good lighting."
3. Timecode Notation: For multi-beat scenes, use [00:00-00:05s] format to specify timing.
4. Tag References: If files provided, use: "Replicate the camera movement of @video1 while maintaining the visual style of @image1."
5. ORDER MATTERS: Tokens at the start define composition; tokens at the end define texture and micro-motion.
6. Multi-Image i2v: Provide up to 9 reference images. The model blends aspects (style, identity, environment) across all inputs.

🚀 Protocol: Using Seedance 2

Mode 1: Text-to-Video (t2v)

CODEBLOCK0

Mode 2: Image-to-Video (i2v)

Animate one or more reference images. Up to 9 images can be supplied — the model synthesizes motion across all of them.

CODEBLOCK1

Mode 3: Extend Video

Continue an existing Seedance 2.0 video seamlessly, preserving visual style, motion, and audio.

⚠️ Constraints & Guardrails

• - No Keyword Soup: DO NOT use "8k, masterpiece, trending." Use technical descriptions: "High-fidelity production grade, 24fps, cinematic grain."
• Continuous Action: Describe one fluid motion. Avoid "The man runs and then he stops." Use "The man gradually transitions from a sprint to a sudden stop, chest heaving."
• Face Stability: For consistent characters: "Maintain high character consistency, zero facial flicker, persistent clothing details."
• Extension Only Works on v2.0: --mode extend requires a request_id from a previous seedance-v2.0-t2v or seedance-v2.0-i2v job.
• Aspect Ratios: 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4 (Seedance 2.0 supports all four).
• Duration: 5, 10, or 15 seconds.
• Quality: basic (faster) or high (higher fidelity).

Advertising / Product Motion

Action / Physics

Character Consistency (Martial Arts / Action)

[SUBJECT] Same fighter throughout: young woman, white gi, black belt, determined expression.
[ACTION] Fluid kata sequence — rising block, stepping side kick, spinning back fist.
[CAMERA] Full-body wide shot, then cut to close-up of fist impact in slow motion.
[STYLE] Maintain identical lighting, clothing, and facial features in every frame. Zero flicker.
