Image to Video Prompts That Work with Seedance 2.0 (and Nano Banana Stills)

Image-to-video fails for boring reasons: the still is soft, the prompt asks for five camera moves, and the logo turns into pudding. The fix is not a longer poem — it is a short, two-part prompt and a sharp still.

I collected the Seedance 2.0 image-to-video prompts that worked on NanoBananaTool when the input still came from Nano Banana 2. Copy them, change only the bracketed bits, and iterate one variable at a time.

How to use these prompts

Make a sharp still (ecommerce prompts or try-on).
Paste Camera + Subject lines separately.
Generate a short clip first on Seedance 2.0.

Final verdict

Seedance 2.0 prompts work when they read like shot cards, not screenplays. Pair them with Nano Banana stills and you get a browser pipeline: still → hook → crop.

FAQ

What makes a good Seedance 2.0 prompt?

Separate camera and subject lines, keep them short, and don’t fight the still.

Can I use these with Nano Banana images?

Yes — that is the intended pipeline on NanoBananaTool.

Why does my logo melt in video?

Usually the still was soft or the camera move was too aggressive. Simplify motion; sharpen the still.
