Seedance 2 Mini Prompt Guide

Seedance 2 Mini Prompt Guide

Seedance 2 Mini works best when your prompt explains how the uploaded image should move. The image already supplies the subject and composition, so the prompt should focus on motion, camera behavior, atmosphere, and consistency.

A Simple Prompt Formula

Use this structure:

Animate [subject] with [motion]. The camera [camera movement]. Keep [important details] consistent. Style: [lighting, mood, visual tone].

This gives the model a clear job without overloading it.

Product Prompt

Animate the product image into a premium studio video. The camera slowly rotates around the product, soft highlights move across the surface, and the background remains clean and minimal. Keep the product shape, logo, and color consistent.

Use this for ecommerce, landing pages, ads, and product demos.

Character Prompt

Animate the character with subtle natural movement. The hair and clothing move gently in the breeze, the character turns slightly toward the camera, and the expression stays calm. Keep the face and outfit consistent with the reference image.

Use this for avatars, concept art, game characters, and social clips.

Poster Prompt

Turn this poster into a cinematic video intro. Add slow parallax motion, gentle light movement, and a smooth camera push-in. Keep the text readable and preserve the original layout.

Use this for thumbnails, event posters, marketing visuals, and title cards.

Common Mistakes

Avoid prompts that are too vague:

• "Make it cool"
• "Create a viral video"
• "Animate this"

Use specific motion instead:

• "The camera slowly pushes in"
• "The subject turns slightly to the left"
• "Soft light moves across the scene"
• "The background has gentle depth and parallax"

Recommended First Settings

For a first test:

• Duration: 5 seconds
• Resolution: 720p
• Prompt length: 1-3 sentences

Use 1080p or longer duration after the basic motion looks right.
