How do you write prompts for Seedance V1.5 Pro Spicy Image-to-Video?

  1. Subject first: lead with the actor and action, then add environment, lighting and style ("an astronaut sprinting through a neon street in the rain, cinematic, shallow depth of field").
  2. Concrete nouns beat stacked adjectives: "85mm portrait lens, golden-hour backlight" works far better than "very beautiful, ultra high quality".
  3. Change one variable per iteration: pin the seed to reproduce a result, tweak a single phrase at a time so you know what actually moved the output.
  4. State negatives positively: instead of "no blur", ask for "sharp focus, crisp details".

How much does it cost?

Pay-per-use in credits. About $0.260 per typical run ($1 = 100 credits); the exact price varies with parameters like resolution or duration, and the playground shows the exact quote before you submit.

Seedance V1.5 Pro Spicy Image-to-Video

Turn one image into a cinematic clip with expressive motion and optional synchronized audio.

Seedance V1.5 Pro Spicy Image-to-Video is designed for controlled animation of portraits, products, illustrations, and scenes. A source image establishes the visual identity while optional prompt guidance defines subject movement, camera behavior, and mood. Resolution, duration, aspect ratio, camera lock, generated audio, and seed controls make the model practical for both quick previews and production-oriented creative work.

Key Features

  • Expressive image animation: Adds coherent subject and environmental motion while retaining the source composition.
  • 480p, 720p, and 1080p output: Choose the resolution that fits the target channel and processing budget.
  • Flexible 1-16 second duration: Set an exact clip length rather than choosing from only a few presets.
  • Synchronized audio generation: Produce an audio track with the video when generate_audio is enabled.
  • Camera-lock option: Use camera_fixed for compositions that need motion inside a stable frame.
  • Multiple aspect ratios: Supports cinematic, landscape, square, and portrait layouts.

Sample Prompts

  • The character looks toward the camera and smiles subtly while a light breeze moves the hair; slow push-in, warm evening light.
  • The camera makes a controlled orbit around the product as reflections glide over the surface; clean premium studio atmosphere.
  • Fog drifts between the mountains, water ripples gently, and sunlight breaks through the clouds; stable wide composition.
