A 30-Second Seedance 2.5 Dialogue Scene: Character, Prop and Location Maps Plus the Full Shot Prompt

By Ivanka Humeniuk (@ivanka_humeniuk) ·

Ivanka Humeniuk shares every prompt behind a 30-second romantic-comedy scene in Seedance 2.5: three-panel character sheets for both actors, a prop sheet and a location photo, then one timestamped animation prompt. The rest of the scenes are in a linked Google Drive folder.

Key points

  • Character map: one 16:9 sheet with full-body front and back views plus a large head-and-shoulders portrait on a plain grey backdrop
  • On the full-body front view the face is blurred, so the portrait is the only face reference the video model sees
  • A prop sheet shows the same object in two states (box closed and open) and a location photo fixes the room's layout at a 28mm eye-level view
  • The animation prompt names each reference by @image number, fixes screen sides and the dialogue axis, then gives seven hard-cut shots, each with a time range, field of view, camera move, action and exact dialogue
  • Fixed voice descriptions for each character, room-tone and prop sounds, a 35mm film look and a continuity block for props
  • Her tip for big group scenes: make the table reference simple line art with one color per character, then name each character by color in the prompt
