PROMPT · Seedance 2.0 Prompt

Create with AI
Eastern action-comedy style, 15 seconds, one continuous take. Inside a wooden dojo, an elderly legendary master has been invited to give a “gentle balance demonstration.” He stands at the center, humble and restrained in expression. Several students step forward one by one to assist. He merely taps a shoulder, wrist, or forehead lightly with a single finger, yet each student spins dramatically through the air, slides across the floor, crashes into soft mats, or flips behind the weapon rack. Each time, the master pulls his hand back with slight embarrassment, as if he himself did not expect that to happen. The camera shifts quickly between wide and medium shots, with action that is fluid and exaggerated. The entire dojo falls into absurd silence and stunned disbelief.

✍️ Editor’s Notes

The dojo-comedy prompt structures its joke as stacked contrast: the master barely taps each student, yet they go flying in absurdly exaggerated ways, and every single time the master himself looks genuinely surprised. That detail — “even the master didn't see it coming” — is the most valuable part of the whole prompt, and it's a smarter move than just writing “funny fight scene.” The requirement for “one continuous shot” combined with fast cuts between wide and medium shots, landing on a closing beat of “the whole room falls into absurd silence,” puts the comic timing on “awkward silence” rather than laughter — that East Asian deadpan style of closing actually demands a lot from a model's performance control, and Seedance 2.0 needs repeated emotional cues like “embarrassed” to sustain that awkwardness after each strike.
