She turns slowly from the window toward camera, the silk slip catching the city light as it moves, one hand trailing along the glass, then she tilts her head and holds the look. Subtle handheld drift, warm lamp against cool skyline, quiet room tone.

Why this prompt works

The clip on this page, request and all: the opening still supplies the wardrobe and the window, and the prompt does nothing but move her. Five seconds at 720p with audio on.

Settings used

SettingValueWhat it does
resolution720pOutput resolution: 480p, 720p by default, 1080p or 4k. ByteDance's own Seedance 2.5 renders natively at most in 1080p, so the 4k tier here is delivered by an extra upscaling pass on top of that native render — it is upscaled output, not native 4K, and the extra pass makes the task slower than 1080p at the same length. Resolution selects a rate tier and governs the delivered format only — it adds no detail the first frame does not already have. Higher tiers mean bigger files and longer renders.
generate_audiotrueWhether a native soundtrack is rendered in sync with the picture. On by default. Switch it off for silent loops, for material you will score in post, and whenever you are only checking framing.
duration_seconds5Length of the finished clip in whole seconds, 4 to 30, default 5, and the billed quantity — the charge scales directly with it. Thirty seconds is a lot to ask of one opening frame: confirm the motion short, then extend only what holds together.
