Seedance Prompt Optimizer (video prompt-writing)

Turns a rough video idea — plus whatever jewelry photos, model shots, location pictures, or reference clips you attach — into a properly structured Seedance 2.5 prompt: Subject+Action, Scene, Visual Style, Camera, and Audio, with every reference explicitly labeled and narrowed (@Image / @Video / @Audio) so Seedance uses exactly the part you want. Works for anything from a 5-second product spin to a full character-driven story film — multi-shot product beauty, staged brand stories, and longer ‘extended’ narratives all use the same reference-labeling rules.

How to use it
Attach your own references — jewelry product photos, model shots, location or backdrop pictures, even a past campaign clip for pacing — and describe the shot. Claude writes a submission-ready Seedance prompt that labels every reference explicitly (@Image 1, @Image 2, @Video 1…) and narrows each one to exactly the part you want (‘the necklace only, not the background’) — Seedance won’t reliably guess that on its own. It also splits the shot into timestamped beats (0–5s, 5–15s…), picks one camera move per beat, and uses Seedance’s own bracket syntax for sound and text: () for music, <> for sound effects, {} for dialogue, and 【】 for on-screen captions. Seedance accepts up to 50 references total (30 images, 10 video clips, 10 audio clips, each type capped around 30 seconds combined) but stays most reliable at 8 or fewer distinct people or products in one clip. This skill writes and checks the prompt — it doesn’t generate the video itself. Copy the finished prompt, with your attached files, into wherever your team runs Seedance today, or hand it to whoever does.
How to invoke / keep it on
Ask Claude to “write a Seedance prompt” and attach whatever references you have — product photos, a model shot, a location photo, a reference video or voice clip. Claude will ask what each one is for if it’s not obvious, then hand back the finished prompt with every reference correctly labeled and checked against Seedance’s hard limits before you copy it out. No connector or sign-in required; it’s pure writing help.
20 powerful examples for Melinda Maria
Ranges from a 5-second product spin to full character-driven story films — attach your own jewelry, model, and setting photos (or reference clips) and copy any prompt below.
01"I’ve attached one photo of our Pavé Huggie earrings on a clean backdrop. Write a simple 6-second Seedance prompt — label it @Image 1 (‘the earrings only’) and do one slow 360° orbit, nothing else."
02"Using the attached ring photo (@Image 1, ‘ring only’), write an 8-second prompt: light sweeps across the stone in one continuous move, ending on a single sparkle flare."
03"Attached: a pendant photo on white. Write a 5-second floating-and-turning prompt, one camera move, quiet room tone — no music, no story, just a clean product beauty shot."
04"I’ve attached a model headshot (@Image 1, ‘face only’) and our tennis necklace photo (@Image 2, ‘necklace only’). Write an 8-second prompt of her clasping it on and glancing up with a small smile — a little personality, still simple."
05"Attached: a photo of hands and our stacking rings. Write a close, sensory 8-second prompt — fingers sliding the rings on one at a time, catching light, ending on a satisfied exhale."
06"I’ve attached a model photo and the Lariat necklace photo. Write a 10-second ‘getting ready’ vignette — she checks the mirror, adds the necklace last, and gives herself one approving nod before walking off."
07"Using my attached photos of two friends (@Image 1, @Image 2) and the charm bracelet (@Image 3), write a 15-second gifting scene — one hands the box to the other, a beat of surprise, then a hug — with a soft gasp and a warm string swell in music brackets."
08"Attached: a grandmother photo, a granddaughter photo, and our vermeil pendant. Write a 20-second, three-beat heirloom story — grandmother fastens it on her, a quiet look passes between them, then a wide shot of both smiling — timestamped, one camera move per beat."
09"I’ve attached a model photo and our vermeil band. Write a 15-second ‘something borrowed, something new’ bridal moment — hands trembling slightly as she puts it on, then steadying, ending calm and ready, with only breathing and rustling fabric in the room."
10"Using a model photo and the Lariat necklace, write a 12-second before/after confidence arc — she starts slouched and unsure, puts the necklace on mid-shot, and finishes standing taller with a direct look to camera. One clear emotional turn, one camera move."
11"Attached: a model photo and our pendant. Write a POV unboxing prompt with a twist — the box looks small and plain for the first 5 seconds, then opens to reveal the pendant glowing under studio light at second 6, timed to a single chime, ending on her genuine gasp."
12"I’ve attached three outfit photos of the same model and our charm bracelet (worn in all three). Write an episodic 20-second ‘day in the life’ — morning coffee, office desk, dinner out — three timestamped beats, same bracelet visible throughout, one quick cut style per beat."
13"Using two model photos and our tennis necklace, write a 20-second reunion scene — two old friends spot each other across a room, and one is wearing the necklace the other gave her years ago; the moment she notices it is the emotional beat. Timestamped, ends on their laugh."
14"Attached: a model photo, our stacking rings, and a short voice clip of her testimonial. Write a 15-second ‘I didn’t expect this to change how I feel’ story — label the audio @Audio 1 (‘her voice only’), her line goes in dialogue brackets, and the rings appear in close-up right as she says the key phrase."
15"I’ve attached a photo of her getting ready today and an old photo from the day she bought the piece in-store. Write a nonlinear 20-second prompt cutting between ‘now’ and ‘then’ — two labeled photo references, two timestamped beats each, tied together by the same necklace in both."
16"Using our pendant photo and a soft-focus location shot, write a dreamlike 15-second ‘family legacy’ concept — the pendant catches an almost-magical glint of light as if holding a memory, slow push-in throughout, one swelling music cue, no dialogue, no captions."
17"Attached: a model photo and the charm bracelet. Write a full viral-ad-structure prompt — 0–2s a hook (an extreme close-up on the charms), 2–8s the ‘problem’ (fumbling with a plain, forgettable bracelet in a flashback beat), 8–15s the ‘solution’ (switching to ours, catching light, her smile), ending on an on-screen caption in subtitle brackets."
18"I’ve attached model photos for three friends and photos of three different pieces — the necklace, the earrings, and the bracelet. Write a 25-second multi-character gathering scene — each friend gets a labeled beat wearing her own piece, then they come together for one final wide shot — and flag it if three people plus three products in one clip is pushing past what stays reliable."
19"Using a model photo, our Lariat necklace, and a short reference clip of a slow-motion hair flip we love, write a 20-second glamorous ‘entrance’ story — she walks in, the room notices, the camera holds on the necklace catching light exactly as she turns. Label the clip @Video 1 (‘the hair-flip motion only’) and build the beat around matching it."
20"This is the big one — I’m attaching 4 model photos, 3 product photos, and 2 short reference clips for a 30-second brand film: a family gathering, gifts exchanged, and a final all-together shot. Before I submit it, check my labels, confirm I’m within the 50-reference limit, and tell me honestly if 7 subjects in one clip is more than Seedance can hold together reliably."
