Seedance Prompt
The core instruction block that tells Seedance what to show, how it should move, and what visual constraints to keep stable.
Text to Video
A generation mode where the model creates a video from text alone, without image or video references.
Image to Video
A workflow that starts from an image and asks Seedance to extend it into motion while preserving composition or identity cues.
First and Last Frame
An entry mode that locks the opening and closing image of a generation so motion and timing are predictable from a fixed start and end state.
Motion Control
The set of prompt and reference techniques used to direct what moves in a generated shot, how fast it moves, and how that motion changes over time.
Multimodal Input
A generation flow that combines text, image, video, and audio references in a single prompt so each modality controls a different part of the output.
Camera Movement
The way the virtual camera travels, rotates, follows, or reveals information over time in a generated shot.
Character Consistency
The ability to keep the same person or character recognizable across frames or multiple generated shots.
Cinematic Lighting
Lighting language that shapes mood, depth, emphasis, and premium visual quality in a generated video shot.
Reference Image
An image supplied to Seedance to preserve subject identity, style, composition, or product details during generation.
