Prompt
A 30-second cinematic 3D steampunk animated sequence featuring a retro miniature world and smooth, continuous camera movement through each scene. The video opens on an antique brass clock face that unfolds into rotating gears as a mechanical ornithopter rises from a canyon of vintage books. The camera then moves into an ornate brass zoetrope, where projected mechanical horses spring to life and transform into a hovering cable car traveling through a forest of gears. The camera descends to a wind-up mechanical sailboat crossing deep-blue glass waves. The waves eventually become a glowing giant moon, and an explorer carrying a lantern walks along a crystal ridge beneath a star-filled sky. The camera spirals outward, passes through the clouds, and returns to the brass clock face. A logo appears in the final second. Use the reference image. Use ultra-realistic brass mechanical textures, cinematic lighting, and shallow depth of field to create an epic fantasy-adventure atmosphere.
Input Images
Seedance 2.5 supports up to 50 reference assets per generation, including 30 images, 10 video clips, and 10 audio clips. Images, videos, and audio can be combined flexibly to provide richer multimodal guidance and expand creative possibilities.
Prompt
A bright, colorful commercial featuring fruit-flavored cookies in strawberry, apple, grape, and orange varieties. Use @Image1 as the reference for the strawberry flavor. Arrange the cookies with their matching fruit in highly structured geometric formations. Keep the overall look clean, premium, and energetic. Open with the fruit quickly establishing a visual focal point, using the composition of @Video1 as a reference as the music hits on a strong beat. Then show different cookie flavors arranged in neat rows and cut to close-ups, using the motion and camera work of @Video2. At the climax, one cookie snaps in half and the action instantly shifts into slow motion. The fruit filling bursts out, crumbs fly, and the juicy texture and particle impact are amplified, referencing the impact of @Video3. Arrange the products in a horizontal formation with rhythmic parabolic motion inspired by @Video4, emphasizing order and variety. Then snap back to fast-paced editing. At the end, the English line One bite of crispness, a heart full of delight appears in rapidly changing word-by-word segments, paired with bold rhythmic typography and a final product freeze frame, referencing @Video5. End on a polished brand composition as the cookies and fruit radiate outward, referencing @Video6. The overall mood should feel youthful, energetic, delicious, and highly shareable.
