Seedance 2.0 Text-to-Video Prompts: 12 Scripts That Actually Move

Image-to-video starts from a still. Text-to-video prompts have to invent world + motion together. These are Seedance 2.0 prompts I reuse when I don’t have a locked frame yet.

TL;DR prompt stack

subject + action + camera move + lens feel + lighting + duration vibe + constraints

Camera-first prompts

1. Slow push-in portrait

Close-up of a young woman looking off-camera, slow push-in, soft window light, subtle hair movement, cinematic 35mm feel, natural skin texture, no text

2. Orbit product hero

Matte sneaker on pedestal, gentle orbit camera, studio softbox reflections, clean commercial motion, stable product silhouette, no text

3. Crane city dawn

Futuristic city at dawn, crane shot rising over avenues, volumetric light, light traffic motion, epic but clean, no logos

Lifestyle / UGC motion

4. Handheld kitchen UGC

Creator holding skincare bottle in kitchen, handheld micro-shake, bright daylight, authentic UGC energy, face stable, no text overlay

5. Walk-and-talk street

Person walking toward camera on city sidewalk, tracking shot, golden hour, casual jacket movement, documentary commercial style

Action / drama (use sparingly)

6. Fabric spin

Dancer spins once, dress fabric flares, side tracking shot, stage spotlight, high shutter clarity, controlled motion blur

7. Rain alley push

Figure walks through neon alley in light rain, slow dolly forward, reflections on wet ground, cinematic night palette

Constraints that prevent mush

• Name the camera move explicitly
• One primary action per clip
• Avoid stacking five plot beats in 4 seconds
• Add stable face / stable product when identity matters

FAQs

Text-to-video vs image-to-video?

T2V invents the frame; I2V animates a brand still.

Why does my clip ignore the camera move?

Prompt buried the move—put camera in the first clause.

How long should prompts be?

One tight paragraph beats a novel.

Can I reuse film terms?

Yes—dolly, orbit, push-in, tracking are useful.
