'Construct a production-ready prompt for Seedance 2.0 using the Director\'s Formula. Use when a user has a clear vision and needs to translate it into a genre-aware, intent-driven prompt. Covers genre routing, I2V gate, 30-100 word target, physics language, and anti-slop check.'
This skill translates a user's creative vision into a production-ready prompt for Seedance 2.0. It uses a genre-aware, intent-driven workflow based on community-proven best practices.
Seedance 2.0 is an AI director. Tell it WHAT you want and HOW it should FEEL, not every micro-detail of HOW to execute it. Trust the model.
All prompts should follow this structure. The default target length is 30–100 words.
[Subject] + [Action] + [Scene] + [Camera] + [Style] + [Constraints]
First, ask the user to identify their content category. This determines the prompt's skeleton, length, and emphasis.
| Genre | Lead With | Length Target | Key Sections |
|---|---|---|---|
| Product/E-commerce | Subject | 30-50 words | Subject, Camera, Style |
| Lifestyle/Social | Action | 40-60 words | Action, Scene, Style |
| Drama/Narrative | Scene | 60-100 words | Scene, Action, Camera |
| Music Video | Style | 50-80 words | Style, Action, Camera |
| Landscape/Travel | Scene | 30-60 words | Scene, Camera, Style |
| Commercial/Brand | Style | 40-70 words | Style, Scene, Action |
| Anime/Artistic | Style | 50-90 words | Style, Action, Scene |
| UGC (User-Generated) | Action | 20-40 words | Action, Scene, Camera (handheld) |
For detailed templates per genre, see [ref:genre-guides].
Ask if the user has reference images. This fundamentally changes the prompt.
For detailed I2V guidance, see [ref:i2v-guide].
Construct the prompt using the Subject + Action + Scene + Camera + Style + Constraints formula, tailored to the chosen genre.
Instead of vague mood words, use concrete physics and intensity descriptors.
tires smoke, gravel sprays, sweat flies off in slow motion, dust erupts violently, fat renders slowly, oil bubbles form.slowly, dramatically, violently, gently, frantically. The model cannot infer intensity from images; it must be stated.Scan the prompt for slop words that conceal a lack of specific information. This now includes action and camera slop.
