ByteDance's Seedance 2.0 is a strong multimodal video model with image, video and audio reference workflows exposed through hosted APIs. Give it a reference frame plus a structured prompt when character, product or brand consistency matters. It is also one of the more doctrine-driven prompters on this list: block order genuinely matters.
How to prompt Seedance 2.0 with JSON
Seedance responds best to a strict block order: CAMERA -> SUBJECT -> ACTION -> ENVIRONMENT -> LIGHTING -> STYLE, which is how this site orders the JSON on the Seedance tab. Keep the camera block to a shot type plus a single movement; stacked movements visibly degrade output.
References are the superpower
For character-driven or product-driven content, pair the JSON with a strong reference frame. The text should describe the motion and scene behavior; the reference should carry identity, product shape or brand look.
Where to run it
Dreamina is ByteDance-owned, and several hosted APIs expose Seedance 2 workflows. Check the host before rendering because duration, resolution, audio and reference support can vary by integration.
Prompting rules for Seedance 2.0
Use a strict block order: CAMERA -> SUBJECT -> ACTION -> ENVIRONMENT -> LIGHTING -> STYLE.
Keep the camera block to a shot type plus one movement; stacking moves degrades output.
Reference frames are valuable for product, character and brand consistency.
Runway API documentation lists Seedance 2.0 duration support as 4-15 seconds.

Veo 3.1 follows structured prompts unusually well: lock camera, lighting and audio as separate JSON fields.
Native audio: describe dialogue, ambient sound and music directly in the audio field.

Write the action field as a shot note, not a keyword list.

Use a strict block order: CAMERA -> SUBJECT -> ACTION -> ENVIRONMENT -> LIGHTING -> STYLE.
Keep the camera block to a shot type plus one movement; stacking moves degrades output.

Runway recommends clear, direct language; text-to-video should describe both visual elements and motion.
Image-to-video prompts should focus on describing the motion of the scene.
