Practical Prompt Guide for Seedance AI Video Generation

数字生命卡兹克 · wechat · 2026-07-14

The author shares practical tips for generating AI videos with Seedance, noting that the elaborate, long-winded prompts circulating on social media are mostly ineffective. Truly efficient prompts only need four core components: - **Subject**: Recommended to first create a character reference image via image-to-image and reuse it consistently. - **Scene**: Upload a single scene image, ideally containing the main character to establish scale. - **Music**: Generate only sound effects; avoid generating BGM to prevent interference with post-production editing. - **Camera**: Clearly label shot types and content using formats like "Shot 01." Additionally, the article outlines key pitfalls to avoid: skip complex storyboards; keep prompts concise; do not add timestamps like `[0-3s]` (the model ignores them; shot count is what matters). Currently, 720p yields the best prompt response, which can be upscaled to 4K using Topaz. Finally, the author emphasizes that as models evolve, operational tricks will eventually be flattened out; creators should invest their energy in crafting the story itself.
