@characternexus Thanks Maciel! I’m really impressed so far, especially for longer 30-second sequences like this one, I have done one single generation but spent more time on a optimized prompt. Still not perfect on every detail but definitely a big step forward!

No One Else is Doing it, So I Guess I Will...
I Built a GPT Specifically for Seedance 2.5
Now, you can feed it your prompts + image references, and it will optimize them for you based on Dreamina's own Prompt and User guides for SD 2.5.
(Can't do Video References; but the Titan Agent in my RunTitan platform will have this feature since it can 'watch' videos just fine)
If you want access to the GPT, then just comment below. I will send it over.
How to use it:
1/ Download the .skill file: https://t.co/krHVAuEgnP
2/ In Claude → Settings → Capabilities → upload it
3/ Use /seedance-prompt-optimizer in any Claude chat

0–5s | [Wide Tracking]
A magnificent medieval cavalry knight in polished steel plate armor, flowing crimson cape, longsword at his hip and shield on his back gallops at full speed through a busy modern Paris street on a powerful black warhorse. The camera tracks smoothly beside them as pedestrians leap aside in confusion. Ahead, a discarded banana peel lies unnoticed on the pavement directly in the horse's path.
5–7s | [Dynamic Tracking]
The horse's front hoof lands squarely on the banana peel. Instantly it loses traction and slips violently. The horse collapses forward with realistic momentum while the armored knight is catapulted over its head. Armor plates burst loose and spin through the air. The shield bounces across the pavement. The longsword flies end over end. Dust, leather straps, loose fabric and tiny fragments scatter naturally. The camera continues moving fluidly through the peak of the crash.
At the exact instant of maximum chaos...
Time freezes.
Everything becomes perfectly motionless.
The horse hangs suspended mid-fall. The knight remains frozen in mid-air. Flying armor, spinning sword, drifting dust, debris and shocked pedestrians are locked in place with absolute stillness.
Only one young woman continues moving.
7–13s | [Slow 360° Orbit]
The camera slowly performs a graceful 360-degree orbit around the frozen accident.
The young woman, casually dressed and eating an ice cream cone, walks calmly through the completely frozen world as if nothing unusual has happened. She quietly enjoys another bite of her ice cream while examining the suspended crash. She notices the banana peel beneath the horse's frozen hoof, bends down, casually picks it up with a napkin, walks a few steps to a nearby trash bin and neatly drops it inside. She brushes off her hands, takes another relaxed bite of her ice cream, smiles faintly, and steps out of the horse's path before stopping.
13–15s | [Replay]
Without any rewind, reality simply resumes.
The horse's hoof lands exactly where the banana peel had been, finding perfect grip on the pavement. Horse and knight continue galloping smoothly through the street as though the accident never happened. The same pedestrians watch in amazement as the cavalry races safely past. As he passes the young woman, the knight briefly raises his visor and gives her a respectful nod of gratitude before disappearing into the distance. She barely reacts, calmly finishing another bite of her ice cream as if quietly preventing impossible accidents is simply part of her everyday routine.
