Mastering Seedance 2: The Ultimate Guide to Multimodal Prompts
Unlock the full potential of Seedance 2.0 by mastering multimodal inputs. Learn how to use the @ command to control characters, camera, and style like a pro.
Beyond Text: The Age of Multimodal AI
Most users treat Seedance 2 just like any other AI video generator: they type a text prompt and hope for the best. But the real power of Seedance 2.0 lies in its **Multimodal** capabilities. By combining text with images and video references, you can achieve a level of control that was previously impossible.
The Magic of the @ Command
Just like mentioning a friend in a chat, you can now "mention" an uploaded asset in your prompt using the @ symbol. This tells the AI exactly *how* to use that asset.
Common Multimodal Workflows:
- @Image for Character Consistency: Keep your main character's face the same across multiple shots.
- @Video for Motion Transfer: Clone the camera movement or character action from a reference video.
- @Image (First/Last Frame): Define exactly how your video starts and ends.
Case Study: Consistent Character Action
Let's say you have a character design you love. You don't want the AI to hallucinate a different face every time. Here is the advanced workflow:
❌ The Old Way (Text Only)
"A cyberpunk girl with pink hair walking in rain"
Result: Different face every time.
✅ The Seedance 2 Way
"Subject: @Image1 walking confidently in rain..."
Result: Perfect face consistency.
Pro Tip: Camera Cloning
Love the camera movement in a movie scene? Upload a 3-second clip and prompt:"Reference @Video1 for camera movement, but replace the city with a fantasy forest."
This is the secret weapon for filmmakers using Seedance 2.
