Part 1: an animator is struggling to come up with ideas. it's driving him made. he throws out the drawing. tries again. pulls his beard. starts over. paper thrown into trash can. comedy. animation style. multi-scene. high end animation. Part 2 (giving it part 1 video as reference): continue this video. after struggling to come up with a concept for a character, the artist take a deep breath and say to him self to focus harold. then he draws a beautiful and cool badass princess with a gun. he holds it up proud and whispers that's it. comedy. animation style. multi-scene. high end animation.

✍️ Editor’s Notes

This one's written as a two-part continuation — Part 1 sets the emotional beat (frustration, crumpling up drafts and tossing them), Part 2 uses that first clip as reference footage to continue the story (sudden inspiration, sketching the character). It explicitly tags “comedy,” “animation style,” and “multi-scene” across both parts to keep the tone consistent. Seedance 2.0's ability to continue from a prior clip as reference is exactly what this is built for, and this kind of segmented, sequential writing is a real stress test for the model's continuity memory. It's also a technique a lot of people overlook — instead of cramming everything into one giant prompt, split it into two causally-linked segments and feed them one at a time.
