MarinMethod breaks down a Seedance 2.0 consistency workflow

MarinMethod presented an AI short created with Seedance 2.0, framing the project less as a film demo and more as a reusable consistency workflow. The short includes 4 characters, 2 environments, 2 props, and 1 vehicle, and he said their appearances stayed relatively stable across multiple clips, which matters because visual drift remains a common problem in AI video production.

Key method

The core setup is a reference system built from 9 reference sheets, with each sheet mapped to a single recurring subject. He grouped them into 4 template categories: characters, environments, props, and vehicle. For props, he said each item gets its own sheet—for example, a hammer and a sword are handled separately. The same logic applies to environments: one sheet per location, with the short’s two environments managed independently.

Workflow

According to MarinMethod, the process starts with writing a short story, then using Claude to fill the templates, with GPT Image 2 involved in the pipeline. In the video stage, he first generates multiple clips in Seedance 2.0, then attaches the relevant reference images or sheets to each segment, and uses the “continue a video” feature to preserve continuity between shots. Music and final editing are added afterward.

He also said he plans to share the prompt templates used in this workflow.
