## Key Features

- **Cinematic Multi-Shot Video Generation**: Generate structured cinematic sequences where each prompt becomes a full visual narrative — flowing scenes with coherent pacing and direction, not isolated clips. Built for AI filmmaking and short film creation.
- **AI Camera Control & Cinematic Motion**: Direct how the camera behaves with built-in cinematic movements: zooms, pans, tracking shots, and dynamic framing styles. Shot composition and motion design are as precise as the visual output itself.
- **Consistent Character Generation Across Scenes**: Maintain visual identity stability across multiple shots. Characters stay aligned throughout entire sequences — essential for storytelling, branded content, and cinematic production workflows.
- **Prompt-Driven AI Filmmaking Engine**: Convert natural language into structured cinematic outputs. The model understands narrative intent, scene composition, and visual style — turning simple text inputs into multi-scene cinematic sequences.
- **Sub-minute generation**: Generation finishes in under a minute on most prompts. Test a direction, tweak the prompt, and re-run — faster than most team feedback loops.
- **Social-native output formats**: 5-second clips at 720p in 9:16, 16:9, and 1:1 — exactly what TikTok, Reels, and Shorts use. Upload directly, no extra steps.

### Model Comparison

| Model | Speed | Max Length | Best For |
|-------|-------|------------|----------|
| Seedance 2.0 Mini | < 1 min | Up to 10s | Social, short films, ads, storytelling |

## How to Create Cinematic AI Videos — Ads, Short Films & Social in 3 Steps

1. **Create your account** — Sign up with your email — no credit card required. You get 30 free credits right away, enough to generate your first 5-second cinematic clip at 720p. No production equipment needed.

2. **Write your prompt** — Describe the scene: subject, action, camera movement, lighting, and style. Use narrative language — the model understands storytelling intent, not just visual description. Add a reference image for character or style consistency.
   - Example: *"A sneaker rotating slowly on concrete. Camera tracks in from wide to close. Clean studio light. Product ad, 16:9."*
   - Or: *"A young filmmaker walks alone through fog toward city lights. Camera pans slowly left. Cinematic, muted tones, 9:16."*

3. **Generate and download** — Pick your model and resolution. Hit generate. Your MP4 lands in under a minute — ready to post as a social clip, drop into an ad campaign, or use as a scene in a short film. No editing pipeline needed.

### 5-Part Prompt Formula

| # | Element | Description |
|---|---------|-------------|
| 1 | Subject | What's in the scene |
| 2 | Action | One specific movement |
| 3 | Camera | Shot type and movement |
| 4 | Lighting | Source, quality, time of day |
| 5 | Style | Cinematic, product ad, documentary |

### Prompt Tips

- ✗ Vague prompt — "a nice room" gives you a random room
- ✗ No camera instruction — model guesses, usually wrong
- ✓ Test at 480p Seedance 2.0 Mini first — uses 4 credits/sec instead of 10
- ✓ One action per prompt — keep it focused
- ✓ For ads: specify product, camera angle, and mood in the same prompt
- ✓ For short films: describe character + scene goal, not just visual description
