GPT Image 2 - Character Reference Sheet Prompt
You can create a character reference sheet in any style you want for use in your Seedance 2.0 videos. All you need to do is either provide a reference image or describe your character. You can also input random values to generate completely random characters.
This reference sheet provides a clear, structured, and highly readable visual breakdown of the character, helping the model maintain strong identity consistency across different outputs. The layout ensures the model focuses on essential visual information rather than stylistic noise, while the inclusion of expressions, head angles, and performance cues improves the model’s ability to generate believable acting and varied poses without losing character integrity.
All clips in the demonstration video were generated using the reference sheet image and the same Seedance 2.0 prompt. You can find the prompts in the replies. 👇
GPT Image 2 and Seedance 2.0 are both available on @mitte_ai
This Midjourney V7 style reference feels like a fusion of classic European fantasy illustration and hand-drawn anime mythmaking:
--sref 115126477
This style blends Franco-Belgian comic linework, Studio Ghibli-era character warmth, and mythological storybook painting. Delicate ink contours, airy painterly skies, classical Mediterranean palettes, and expressive character design give it the feel of an animated epic discovered in an old illustrated manuscript.
Perfect for Greek mythology, gothic fairy tales, heroic legends, and poetic fantasy worlds.
This Midjourney V7 style reference feels like a modern revival of classic pulp fantasy illustration:
--sref 83119704
This style blends European comic linework with modern fantasy pulp aesthetics. Strong inked lines, limited cinematic color palettes, and character-driven compositions that feel like iconic cover art.
Perfect for fantasy, sci-fi, or any project where you want characters to carry the entire visual weight.
É bom que a Marvel lance logo esse filme mês que vem, porque senão a galera vai fazer esse filme inteiro com IA e vai acabar ficando melhor do que o filme quando lançarem em dezembro.
Olha essa cena de abertura feita por IA, que coisa sensacional!
He creado este vídeo de animación sobre dioses nórdicos de 1:40 de duración usando Seedance 2.0, y la verdad, tiene poco que envidiar en calidad a producciones como Twilight of the Gods.
Y aún podía haberme esmerado más, pero creo que sirve como ejemplo para mostrar que con las herramientas IA actuales se puede crear perfectamente un corto de animación de calidad profesional.
Mañana compartiré con mis suscriptores los prompts que utilicé aquí.
Si aún no estás usando Seedance 2.0, ya vas tarde. Es el mejor modelo de vídeo AI, y aunque lo puedes encontrar en varias plataformas, yo te recomiendo @TopviewAIhq, pues te permite generaciones ilimitadas (fundamental para que no quemes muchos créditos en experimentos) y además encontrarás menos censura que en otras.
Te cuento más en el post de abajo 👇
This Midjourney cartoon style is really beautiful:
--sref 473832898
This style feels like a fusion between 90s Western animation and modern cinematic anime.
It captures that nostalgic hand-drawn animation feel, but with a more refined, cinematic finish.
Almost like a lost animated film somewhere between classic Western animation and Makoto Shinkai.
What makes Midjourney so special are styles like this:
--sref 5499227237
It’s an animated neo-noir style.
It strongly recalls Genndy Tartakovsky (Samurai Jack, Primal) in its use of bold, simplified shapes, as well as Bruce Timm (Batman: The Animated Series), but more distorted, with a dark European bande dessinée touch.
The Beast's Last Breath
I shared the opening scene prompt earlier and added it to my first reply. For the rest, I built it out using the extend method. This is the prompt I used for the second part. The third part follows the same structure, with only the added segment description changing. I used reference images for the knight, dragon and dragon rider, but they're optional.
I used Seedance 2.0 Omni on @MartiniArt_
Prompt for extending:
Extend @[Video1] by 15s.
Use @[image1] for the knight referece.
CONTINUITY: Match the hostile blizzard, Cold Isolation Look, one continuous stalking camera language, armored knight silhouette, and suffocating storm sound design. Preserve battlefield wreckage under the drifts, intermittent lens strikes from hard ice, cold rim light through the whiteout, and a slow dread build with no release.
ADDED SEGMENT: The knight drags upright with visible effort, legs unsteady, shoulders sagging under ice-caked armor, breath stuttering in the visor before the body settles into a low guarded stance with the sword ready. Opposite him, the ogre-like giant remains at a threatening distance in the whiteout, broad as a siege gate, wearing crude metal scraps and frozen hides, still advancing one deliberate step at a time without closing in too fast. The danger comes from its certainty, not speed. At the same time, the camera slowly cranes upward and pulls away, widening the frame as both figures stay locked on each other, turning the moment into a suspended battlefield standoff with the storm pressing in from every side. SFX: strained breath, steel creak, cloth snap, deep weighted footfalls, snow grind under mass, wind shear, low storm bass.
