- A clip from text alone, when you have no picture yet.
- Animating a ready frame: your picture becomes the start of the clip.
- A scene with your characters, objects and place from references, keeping their look.

Prompt tips
- Build the prompt from four layers: main subject and action; lines in quotes; ambient sounds separated by commas; style and mood.
- Start with 5 seconds and extend later: it is cheaper to test an idea this way.
- References in Seedance work without tags: say in words which one is which, for example "the hero from the first picture walks down the street from the second".
Common mistakes
- Do not pack several complex locations into one clip: one location and one or two characters work best.
- Do not use start and end frames that differ in format and subject.
- Do not make the sound contradict the picture: the model builds sound together with the frame.
- Starting Image to video without a Start frame: it will not start without a picture.
- Asking for a duration outside the range: for Seedance 2.5 it is 4–30 s.
