Seedance 2.0 Action Choreography Prompts (Fights, Chases, Stunts)

Action scenes break when you ask for "a fight" and hope the model invents choreography. Instead, prompt like a stunt coordinator: define who does what, in what order, and where the camera is.

The choreography rule: one beat per line

Write action as beats:

1. Setup (stance, distance, environment)
2. Beat 1 (strike/evade)
3. Beat 2 (counter)
4. Aftermath (dust, breathing, damage)

Template: clean 6-second action shot

Two characters only: [A] and [B]. Clear distance between them: 3 meters.
Environment: [location], minimal clutter, clear floor.
SHOT: wide shot, 24mm, deep depth of field so the action stays readable.
CAMERA: smooth tracking shot left-to-right, constant speed.
BEATS:
1) A steps forward and throws a single punch.
2) B dodges, counter-kicks once (no extra moves).
3) A slides back, regains stance, dust settles.
Lighting: high contrast, rim light to separate silhouettes, no flicker.
Avoid: random cuts, extra characters, jitter, anatomy distortions.

Fight style recipes

Boxing (clean and readable)

Fight style: boxing, tight footwork, realistic weight shifts.
Hands and guard are anatomically correct, no deformation.
Camera: wide/medium alternating, but no hard cuts.

Martial arts (cinematic but controlled)

Fight style: martial arts, one clean combo only (2-3 moves max).
Include reaction: recoil, balance recovery, breathing.

Anime (stylized impact without chaos)

Anime style, energy impact in [color], but choreography stays readable.
Speed lines are subtle, not covering the whole frame.
Include aftermath: cracked ground, settling debris.

Car chase prompt structure

Car chases feel real when you specify:

• road type (narrow alley, coastal highway)
• speed cues (tires squeal, suspension bounce)
• camera mount (hood cam, drone, trailing car)

Template:

A sports car chasing another car through [road type] at night, wet asphalt reflections.
SHOT: wide shot, 24mm. CAMERA: drone follow from above and behind, smooth motion.
BEATS: near-miss at an intersection, sparks from a scrape, tires kicking water spray.
Lighting: neon signage, controlled highlights, motion blur feels natural.
Avoid: random pedestrians, unreadable license plates, glitchy motion.

The "too much action" trap

If you cram 10 stunts into one clip, you get mush. Better:

• make 3 separate clips (setup, impact, aftermath)
• keep each clip to one main beat
