This Seedance prompt library collects 30 video prompts in six groups: camera moves, nature, product ads, characters, animation and vertical social clips. Good Seedance prompts describe one subject, one action, the setting and light, and the camera move, in one to three sentences; with Seedance 2.5, add the sounds you expect. Prompts that mention “this photo” need a starting image.
Every prompt describes a single, filmable moment with a clear camera move.
Find prompts for b-roll, ads, characters, animation or vertical social clips.
Swap the subject, place or light and keep the structure that makes the shot work.
Copy it, or press Try it to open it in the generator.
Match the aspect ratio to the platform; 5 seconds is enough for most shots.
Test with Seedance 2.0 Fast, then render the winner with Seedance 2.5.
Seedance responds best to prompts that read like a line from a shot list: concrete, visual and focused on one moment.
When you start from an image, the picture already defines the subject, style and light. Keep the prompt to the motion and the camera: “The steam rises and the camera slowly pushes in.” Gentle, physical motion keeps the clip faithful to the image.
