seedance-recipes

Use recipes as starting patterns, not rigid prompt templates. Pick the recipe that matches the user's outcome, then customize subject, action, camera, lighting, audio, and constraints. Recipes should preserve the one-beat discipline of a short clip.

Load [ref:genre-guides] for genre patterns, [ref:examples-by-mode] when the user needs copy-ready examples, [ref:shot-list-continuity] for professional multi-shot sequences or commercials, and [ref:multilingual-community-examples] when the recipe should reflect Chinese/Russian/Japanese/Korean/Spanish community-style structures.

Intent

A recipe is a head start, never a mold. The user wants the confidence of a proven shape with their own story inside it. Bend the recipe to the story every time; a user who feels templated has been failed even if the output is competent.

Recipe Families

FamilyBest useCore pattern
ProductAds, ecommerce, hero shots, material reveals.product anchor + one material change + controlled camera + logo preservation
LifestyleHuman use, food, travel, social clips.simple action + lived environment + handheld or natural light + ambient sound
DramaEmotion, dialogue, short narrative beats.character tag + gesture + motivated camera + silence or sparse sound
Music videoBeat sync, dance, stylized edits.rhythm reference + visible beat changes + light pulses + clear character blocking
LandscapeEstablishing shots, nature, atmosphere.slow camera + weather motion + layered depth + natural sound
CommercialBrand-safe polish and function.problem/use/result beat + precise product constraint + clean light
AnimationOriginal characters and stylized motion.medium + shape language + palette + elastic or weighted motion
VFXTransformations, particles, weather, energy.source + material behavior + interaction + dissipation endpoint
First/last frameIn-between transitions, product state changes, character pose targets.first frame + last frame + continuous transition + identity locks
Commercial campaign6/10/15/30s variants, vertical/social cutdowns, textless/localized masters.hook + product proof + end state + cutdown matrix + delivery notes
Short drama (短剧)Fast-cut vertical mini-drama beats: setup, reversal, cliffhanger.two or three labeled shots + one emotional reversal + held reaction close + cut on the sting
Talking head (口播)Presenter, explainer, livestream-style pitch to camera.locked medium close-up + short quoted lines + minimal head motion + caption-safe framing + room tone
Home / space tourWalkthrough of a room, venue, or property.single continuous take + steady forward path + light changes per zone + ambient sound only

Prompt Skeletons

Product I2V: @Image1 is the product reference; preserve logo, label, shape, and materials exactly. [One material or light change]. Camera: [single move]. Lighting: [physical source]. Sound: [ambient/SFX].

Drama T2V: Character A [visible emotional action] in [specific setting]. Camera: [motivated framing]. Lighting: [motivated source]. Sound: [ambient or short dialogue]. End state: [changed expression/action].

Reference Motion: @Video1 provides only [camera/action/timing] reference; do not transfer identity, costume, logo, or environment. New subject: [authorized/original subject]. [Action and endpoint].

First/Last Frame: @Image1 is the first frame. @Image2 is the last frame. Preserve [identity/product/scene anchors]. Generate a continuous transition from [start state] to [end state]. Camera: [locked or one controlled move]. Sound: [ambient/SFX].

Animation: Original [character archetype] [action] in [environment]. Style: [medium, line quality, texture, palette]. Motion: [rhythm]. Camera and sound: [simple support].

Selection Rule

If a user gives many goals, choose the recipe that protects the most fragile requirement. Product identity beats camera spectacle; lip-sync beats large head motion; character consistency beats complex choreography; first/last-frame target accuracy beats extra style changes; safety and authorization beat style mimicry.

Sequence State

When sequence state is present, recipes must inherit the story spine, current clip scope, continuity locks, exact reference tags, completed beats, and reserved future beats. A recipe can propose a clip map, but it must finalize only the current unresolved prompt and leave later prompts provisional until accepted footage is reviewed.

Output Contract

Return one selected recipe, why it fits, the customized prompt skeleton, compact final prompt, and campaign/delivery notes when relevant.
