Citation summary: A strong Seedance prompt names the video job, visible subject, motion phrase, reference role, camera behavior, lighting, duration, constraints, and final beat.

## Question

How do you write a Seedance 2.0 prompt?

## Answer

Write a Seedance 2.0 prompt by stating the video job first, then defining the subject, action, scene, camera move, lighting, style, duration, and ending. If you use references, say exactly what each reference controls and what must not transfer. The best HolyCrab handoff is a compact 4-8 second test prompt before adding complex references.

## Key Takeaways

- Start with the job: product ad, dance clip, creator prompt rewrite, reference test, or one-take shot.
- Assign each reference one role, such as identity, pose, motion timing, audio mood, or end frame.
- Keep constraints visible and practical: no logo copying, no protected likeness, no vague quality padding.
- Copy the handoff prompt into HolyCrab and revise one variable after each generation.
