Seedance 2.0 Cinematic Optical Zoom Video Prompt
[Global Settings]
Ancient-style realistic cinematic shot, Eastern classical life narrative, Jiangnan ancient town after rain: bluestone steps, blue bricks and black tiles, wooden corridors, carved wooden doors, bamboo curtains, wet stone alleys. Soft diffused light under cloudy skies, low contrast, fusion of cold gray-green and warm wood tones, slight 35mm film grain, realistic skin, wood, stone, and fabric textures, cinematic shallow depth of field, 8K, 16:9.
Female Lead A: Image 1
Female Lead B: Image 2
Strictly maintain character identity, spatial position, left-right relationship, direction of movement, weather, lighting, and color tone continuity throughout the video.
[Core Cinematography Technique]
The entire video uses "progressive optical zoom" as the sole core camera movement. The camera remains as fixed as possible, relying not on physical movement but on slow, continuous optical push-ins and pull-outs to change the characters' screen proportion and spatial relationships. Maintain real lens compression, depth of field changes, and optical characteristics; prohibit digital cropping. Foreground occlusion, shallow depth of field, and focus shifts assist the narrative, forming "discovery from afar -> eye contact across the alley -> spatial compression -> emotional confirmation."
[0-4s]
Medium shot start, 35mm, fixed camera, eye level. Female Lead A slowly descends along the bluestone steps to the alley entrance, stops, turns, and looks up, seeing Female Lead B under the distant corridor eaves. The shot begins with a wider environmental relationship composition, only slowly optically pushing in, gradually tightening to a medium shot of Female Lead A, with no camera movement.
Town pedestrians pass horizontally through the foreground from left and right, creating natural blurred occlusions at close range, while Female Lead A remains clear; exposure, color temperature, and light/shadow remain stable during occlusion. The zoom continues smoothly and restrainedly, finally forming an eye contact between Female Lead A and Female Lead B across the alley.
[4-9s]
Continuing from the previous segment, the camera position remains completely unchanged. Female Lead B slowly enters from the right foreground, approaching the wooden corridor pillar, forming a natural foreground frame with the pillar; Female Lead A is deep in the left-middle alley.
Slow continuous optical zoom, Female Lead A initially remains clear, then the shot gradually tightens, Female Lead B's foreground proportion increases, and Female Lead A recedes into the background with soft blur. Gradually entering the telephoto end, real space compression makes the depth of the ancient alley appear compressed; the actual distance between the two remains unchanged, but the visual distance is clearly shortened. Focus shifts smoothly from Female Lead A to Female Lead B, ending with Female Lead B's side profile clear and Female Lead A blurred. No lateral movement, panning, or orbiting; exposure and tone are continuous.
[9-13s]
Maintain fixed camera and telephoto relationship. Female Lead B stands by the wooden corridor pillar, slowly turning to look at Female Lead A. Perform only one extremely slow optical push-in, tightening from a two-person relationship composition to a medium close-up of Female Lead B. Retain a partial blurred outline of Female Lead A on the left side of the screen, forming a peeping-style foreground frame.
Female Lead B becomes the main focus, looking at Female Lead A, pausing briefly before softly saying: "Long time no see." Showing a faint smile. Bamboo curtains are blown by the gentle post-rain breeze, water drops fall naturally from the eaves, and wet bluestone reflects soft sky light. The camera advances steadily, ending in close-range emotional confirmation.
[Camera Control]
The core must be "optical zoom creating narrative distance changes," rather than camera movement. Camera language completes sequentially: environment establishment -> discovery of Female Lead A -> slow tightening -> Female Lead B enters foreground -> telephoto space compression -> focus shift -> emotional confirmation. Zoom speed is slow and continuous, with real lens inertia; maintain natural character proportions, real depth of field, and stable exposure, clearly presenting the optical zoom feel without cheap digital enlargement.
[Continuity and Negative Constraints]
Strictly follow character cards, prohibit drift in appearance, hairstyle, or clothing; maintain consistency in spatial geographic relationships, left/right positions, movement directions, and light directions. Prohibit modern buildings, vehicles, road signs, modern objects, subtitles, watermarks; prohibit adding major characters, character duplication, limb abnormalities, or identity swaps. Prohibit lateral movement, orbiting, sudden panning, drone movement, strong handheld shake, digital zoom, digital cropping, perspective anomalies, focal length jumps, instant depth of field cuts, exposure flickering, color temperature drift, excessive fogging, excessive smoothing, AI plastic skin.
