This post is a further test of Seedance 2.5's video generation capabilities, where the author shares how to use 4 image references (car, self, cap, hoodie) to generate a 30-second retro-style video.
The post details the prompt structure:
- Style & Camera: Early-2000s consumer DV camcorder / gritty Y2K underground skater video aesthetic, rapid-fire hard cuts, violent handheld shake.
- Atmosphere: Sun-bleached desert, harsh midday light, heat haze, thick white tire smoke mixed with red dust.
- Image References: Detailed definitions for the main character's face and clothing items.
