Citation summary: Seedance negative prompt guardrails should remove copied source details, unsafe rights dependencies, unsupported claims, visual drift, and review failures before generation.

## Question

What negative prompt guardrails should Seedance prompts include?

## Answer

Seedance negative prompt guardrails should name what must not appear in the output and what must not transfer from any source or reference. Start with rights guardrails: no copied celebrity or private-person likeness, protected characters, brand campaigns, logos, slogans, songs, voices, choreography, UI, captions, watermarks, or unsupported product claims unless authorized. Add quality guardrails for the specific job: no face drift, warped hands, unreadable product labels, unstable final frame, excessive camera shake, unwanted scene changes, inconsistent lighting, or off-brief audio timing. For third-party prompt inspiration, use guardrails to prevent the raw source's exact people, setting, movement, styling, text overlays, and final execution from leaking into the HolyCrab result. Then review the 4-8 second Seedance test against motion clarity, reference stability, final-frame usefulness, rights status, retry count, and cost per approved output.

## Key Takeaways

- Use rights guardrails before generation, not only after output review.
- Block copied likeness, brand, protected character, music, choreography, UI, and claims.
- Add job-specific quality exclusions for product, UGC, cinematic, audio, and reference tests.
- Say what must not transfer from each reference asset or third-party source.
- Measure guardrail quality by fewer rejects, lower retry cost, and safer approved clips.
