How do you write prompts for seedance-2-0 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. A typical run costs about $1.20 ($1 = 100 credits); the exact price varies with parameters like resolution or duration, and the playground shows the exact quote before you submit.
