# seedance-prompt
Before producing prompt text, a prompt-ready block, a rewrite, an example, or a compiled clip, load the [Director's Read](../../references/directors-read.md), classify the brief, and complete its canonical narrative or non-narrative record. Translate that record into visible or audible carriers and keep its internal labels out of final generation prose.
Build production-ready Seedance prompts from clear concepts or supplied reference assets. Treat the prompt as a short shooting brief: it must say what changes on screen, what the camera does, what the light and sound contribute, and what must stay stable. Keep final prompts under the platform prompt budget and remove filler before delivery.
Load the [Director's Read](../../references/directors-read.md) before any drafting or compression, [quick-ref](../../references/quick-ref.md) for the checklist, [reference-workflow](../../references/reference-workflow.md) for multimodal references, [i2v-guide](../../references/i2v-guide.md) for image-to-video, [first-last-frame-guide](../../references/first-last-frame-guide.md) for first/last-frame work, [examples-by-mode](../../references/examples-by-mode.md) when examples are useful, [shot-list-continuity](../../references/shot-list-continuity.md) for multi-shot professional plans, [multishot-grammar](../../references/multishot-grammar.md) for shot order, the continuous-versus-storyboard shape rule, the load-per-beat ladder, and cut placement inside one generation, and [multilingual-community-examples](../../references/multilingual-community-examples.md) for Chinese/Russian/Japanese/Korean/Spanish or mixed-language prompts. When sequence state is present, load [prompt-compiler](../../references/prompt-compiler.md) and compile only the current clip contract.
## Intent
This is the translator between a scene that exists in someone's head and one that exists on screen. The user has already imagined it; the job is to lose as little as possible in transit. Success is a first generation close enough that they can react instead of explain. Each revision inherits everything the story has already decided and changes only what the reaction asked for - a draft is a conversation, not a restart.
