Smalltown Boy AI dance prompt for Seedance: a copyable prompt
Updated:
Short answer
Copy the prompt below into Seedance and attach your two photos as the reference images. It is written as a short timeline with a camera line and a sound line. It names no song or artist, because tools filter them. Tweak the first line to your plan’s length, or use MimicZip.

Copy this prompt
Create a 10-second vertical comedy dance clip using the reference images, filmed on a phone in a sunny backyard. Image 1 is the LEAD and image 2 is the PARTNER: preserve each one's face, fur or hair, colours, body shape and clothing, never swap or merge their looks and never add a third character. If a subject is an animal, keep its species and let it stand and dance upright on its hind legs. If a subject is a toy or a drawn character, bring it to life and keep its colours and shape. Scene: in front of a bright red painted wooden fence, green lawn, blue sky. No readable text or logos. Timeline: 0-2s the LEAD rushes the lens and wails dramatically, hands on head, while the PARTNER dances in the background. 2-4s hard cut: they swap, the PARTNER wails and the LEAD dances behind. 4-6s hard cut: both side by side, dancing in sync. 6-7s hard cut: low camera on the grass looking up at both against the sky. 7-10s both lunge at the camera and reach out as if to grab the phone; end on their faces filling the frame. Camera: handheld phone, close and energetic. Audio: retro 1980s synth-pop instrumental with a punchy electronic beat plus the characters' own comic wails. No lyrics, no words. Realistic motion, no captions, no logos, no watermark.
How to use it
- Attach the Lead photo first and the Partner photo second, and name them Image 1 and Image 2 if your tool asks for tags.
- Do not put a song or artist name in the timeline. Names tend to be filtered, so the timeline shows the action and the sound style only.
- Plans and limits differ by tool and change often, so set the first line to the length and shape your plan allows.
Questions people ask
Which model does this site itself use?
The videos here are generated with Seedance 2.0 Mini through an API. The page is independent, though, and not affiliated with ByteDance or the original creators.
Will the result match the trend exactly?
Not exactly. Faces, motion and timing change with the tool, the model version and your photos. Treat the prompt as a starting point.
Do I need a prompt to use this site?
No. MimicZip runs a fixed scene, so you add two photos and press the make button.
