Seedance Pro and Seedance Pro Fast are powerful text-and-image-to-video models inside ZenCreator. They turn your still images into cinematic, lifelike motion videos based entirely on your written prompt.

Both models work without censorship, giving you full freedom to create SFW or NSFW videos of any kind.

⚡️ Overview

Seedance Pro⏱️ Slower💎 Standard pricing✅ YesFor final high-quality renders and longer scenes

🧠 Core Idea

The key principle of Seedance prompt writing is simple:

“Write what you want to see.”

These models understand actions, camera movements, emotions, lighting, and style in natural language — no need to learn technical film terms.

Whether you describe a simple motion like “a woman smiling at the camera” or a multi-character scene, the model interprets and animates it automatically.

🧩 Input Fields

FieldDescription
imageUpload the base image (your subject or scene). Use clear, high-quality, front-facing images for best results.
promptDescribe what happens in natural language (action, style, camera, etc.).
modeChoose between Seedance Pro Fast or Seedance Pro.
durationThe video length (default 5 seconds).
resolutionChoose between 480p, 720p or 1080p
last frame (Pro only)Optionally preserve the final image frame for smooth looping.

✍️ Writing Effective Prompts

A good prompt describes exactly what you want to see in the video:

  • Who is in the frame
  • What happens (action)
  • Where it happens (environment)
  • How it looks (style, camera, light)

🔹 Basic Formula

Subject + Action + Setting + Camera + Style

Example:

"A confident woman smiles at the camera in a neon-lit Tokyo street at night, cinematic, handheld camera, soft focus."

✅ Natural language ✅ Cinematic and descriptive ✅ Easy for the model to interpret

🧍‍♀️ Basic Movements

The simplest prompts use one subject and one action.

Example PromptResult
A kitten yawns at the cameraCute close-up animal motion
A woman walks on a Shanghai street at nightCinematic nighttime scene
A man turns his head and smiles at the cameraPerfect for portrait or greeting shots
A steady, aloof boy looks at the camera, puts down his headset, then jumps off a tire and squats downNatural, multi-step single-character animation

Tips:

  • Use active verbs — walks, turns, smiles, jumps, waves, runs.
  • Avoid abstract terms like “beautifully” or “nicely”.
  • Mention emotion or tone if relevant — “nervously smiles”, “relaxes”, “stares calmly”.

🔄 Multi-Action Prompts

You can describe multiple actions or multiple characters within one video. Just write them in the order they occur.

TypePrompt Example
Single character, multiple actionsA woman picks up a glass of wine, takes a sip, puts it down, and leaves the table.
Multiple characters, multiple actionsA rock band performs on stage. The singer holds the mic and sings, the guitarist plays passionately, the drummer shakes his head while drumming, and the keyboardist smiles.
Office scene exampleIn an office break room, coworkers are chatting. One tells a funny story, another laughs hard, and others join in.

Pro Tip: Use commas or “then” to separate actions. Write the story visually, as if describing a scene to a camera operator.

🎥 Camera & Shot Language

You can guide the model’s camera behavior naturally through your prompt.

Shot TypeExample PromptDescription
StaticFixed camera, full-body shot of a person sitting by the windowNo camera movement
PanCamera pans slowly from left to right across the roomSmooth motion
ZoomCamera slowly zooms in on the character’s faceFocus effect
FollowCamera follows a running woman through a parkDynamic, action style
POVFirst-person view — the person looks down at their handsImmersive scene
AerialAerial drone view of a beach at sunsetHigh, cinematic perspective

You can combine these camera cues with style, mood, or lighting:

“Camera slowly moves closer as warm sunlight hits her face.”

🎨 Style, Lighting & Visual Aesthetics

Seedance models respond beautifully to stylistic cues. Use them to control tone and atmosphere.

CategoryExample
RealisticUltra-realistic cinematic lighting, natural colors
ArtisticAnime-style, vibrant color palette
MoodyLow-key lighting, soft shadows, dark tones
VintageFilm grain, 1970s tone, handheld feel
FuturisticNeon reflections, metallic textures, cool light

Pro Tip: You can layer multiple styles:

"A man walks in the rain under neon lights, cinematic, handheld camera, shallow depth of field, moody lighting."

👗 Character Appearance & Emotion

Describe how the subject looks and feels.

"A confident woman in a red dress walks into a modern bar, smiles slightly. Soft warm lighting, cinematic focus on her face."

You can include:

  • Age or type: “young woman”, “elderly man”, “teenage boy”
  • Emotion: “smiling confidently”, “tired but peaceful”, “curious expression”
  • Outfit: “in casual jeans and white T-shirt”
  • Environment: “in a sunny park”, “in a rainy alley”, “in a futuristic city”

📸 Frame, Lens, and Composition Control

You can specify framing, focus, and camera lenses just like in real cinematography.

TypeExample Prompt
Close-upClose-up of eyes reflecting city lights
Medium shotMedium shot of a man talking on the phone
WideWide shot of a desert road under the sun
MacroMacro shot of raindrops on a leaf
Lens35mm lens, shallow depth of field, cinematic
CompositionCamera keeps the subject center-aligned

These cues help Seedance Pro produce more stable, film-like motion.

🧩 Multi-Lens & Multi-Style Output

You can ask the model to simulate multiple shots or camera styles within one clip:

"A girl dancing in a studio, alternating between close-up and wide shots, cinematic lighting."

This is especially powerful for music videos, fashion content, or storytelling scenes.

✅ Best Practices Checklist

  • Keep prompts visual and specific — The model “sees” what you describe.
  • Write actions in order — The model animates sequentially.
  • Use natural English — Avoid overcomplicated grammar.
  • Add emotion or mood — Enhances realism.
  • Avoid contradictions — Don’t mix “dark” and “bright” or “static” and “moving” in one phrase.
  • Choose the right modelFast for tests, Pro for production.

🔁 When to Use Each Model

  • Seedance Pro Fast → quick preview, cheaper, ideal for iterating multiple takes.
  • Seedance Pro → final production render, supports “last frame” and better temporal stability.

Both deliver censorship-free results and fully respect your creative intent.

🧭 Summary

Seedance Pro brings cinematic motion to your static images — powered by natural language. Just describe your scene as if you’re talking to a camera crew, and the model does the rest.

Think visually. Be direct. Write what you want to see.
