higgsfield-seedance
Rewrites scene descriptions using professional cinematography language, structures prompts with a six-slot formula (camera + subject + action + setting + style + lighting), and diagnoses content filter rejections via a preflight linter. Use whenever the user asks for a Seedance 2.0 / Seedance Pro prompt, describes a scene for Seedance generation, mentions Seedance, reports a Seedance generation failure or flagged prompt, or is burning credits on Seedance regenerations.

# Higgsfield Seedance Director
## QUICK FACTS
*Generated-checked block (scripts/build_index.py verifies anchors). Read the linked sections for full context — these lines are routing aids, not the rules themselves.*
- The filter is an LLM reading full-scene intent, not a keyword blacklist — describe a SCENE, not a subject; fix the voice first [→](#the-filter-model--read-this-first)
- Instant fail (<10s) = filter rejection; delayed fail (>30s) = infra/complexity — never regenerate an instant fail unchanged [→](#instant-fail-vs-delayed-fail--the-diagnostic)
- Six slots, in order: Camera + Subject + Action + Setting + Style + Lighting; missing 3+ slots is where flags come from [→](#the-seedance-prompt-formula)
- Empirical prompt-craft laws: 50–80-word attention sweet spot (front-load the load-bearing element), name a director/lens not "cinematic", "fast" degrades motion, no negative prompts in the body, unidirectional motion chains + named camera endpoint + detail scale follows shot size [→](#prompt-craft-laws)
- Five prompt modes: Reference-Based / Continuation / Expand Shot / Edit Shot / Transformation — pick the mode before writing [→](#seedance-20-prompt-modes)
- [OFFICIAL] block scaffold for production prompts: SCENE CONTEXT → … → POSITIVE LOCKS, distributed style on standalone briefs (connected shotlists glue the compiled Style Prefix verbatim instead), FOV in degrees only, CAMERA block 3rd, cut ladder oner / CUT n / timed / freestyle [→](#official-prompt-architecture--the-block-scaffold)
- [FIELD] 13-project corpus calibration: word length scales with register (218w → 2,059w medians — the 50–80w sweet spot is single-shot-only), video briefs hand-authored (`enhance_prompt` off), Style Prefix = per-project constant compiled into home blocks [→](#field-calibration--the-13-project-production-corpus)
- [FIELD] Three "helpful-instinct" drift sources, each with a standing lock: environment invention (#1, above character drift), character-height equalization, scale drift on wides [→](#positive-locks)
- Build-safe construction for crowds/destruction/creatures: evacuated cities, contained fights ("stays at the sea surface"), the safe benchmark scene [→](#build-safe-construction--crowds-destruction-creatures)
- Extend an existing clip: attach it as a video reference + open with "The scene continues." — match source resolution AND duration; chain cap ~2 (hard 3), then re-anchor from ORIGINAL references [→](#extension-prompting--video-reference-continuation)
