Course Promo — Educational Product Video Prompts
Seedance 2.0 Input Specifications
Seedance 2.0 accepts multi-modal inputs and produces short-form cinematic video output. Before writing any prompt, confirm the assets available:
Image inputs — up to 9 images
Reference the first image as @material[image1], second as @material[image2], and so on
Use for: instructor headshots, course mockups, student result screenshots, before/after photos, slide previews, community screenshots, device mockups showing the course platform
Video inputs — up to 3 short video clips
Reference as @material[video1], @material[video2], @material[video3]
Use for: existing testimonial clips, talking-head snippets, screen recordings of the course interface, b-roll of the instructor in action
Audio inputs — up to 3 audio files
Reference as @material[audio1], @material[audio2], @material[audio3]
Use for: background music track, voiceover narration, sound effects layer
Chaining multiple generations creates a full 30–90 second promo sequence
Prompt length sweet spot: 120–250 words per generation. Too short = generic output. Too long = model ignores later instructions.
Asset Checklist Before Writing Any Prompt
Before generating a prompt, answer these questions:
What is the course/program name and price point?
What is the primary platform (Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, email)?
What is the video duration target?
What assets are available? (List all images, videos, audio files with their @material tags)
Who is the target student? (One sentence description of their current painful state)
What is the single transformation promise? (One sentence: "Go from X to Y in Z time")
What is the CTA action? (Register, buy, apply, watch, join — pick one)
Is there a deadline or urgency element? (Enrollment closing, live event date, bonus expiring)
Philosophy
Every course promo follows one arc:
Hook (tension/curiosity) → Evidence (authority/social proof) → Transformation (the future state) → CTA (one clear next step)
2-Second Hook Patterns
The hook is the first 2 seconds of the video. It must work without sound. Design it visually before writing anything else.
Hook Pattern
Visual Signal
Emotional Mechanism
Best For
The Knowledge Gap
Split screen: wrong way (frustrated, messy desk, error screen) vs. right way (clean, confident, results visible)
Curiosity + mild anxiety relief
Skill-based courses, coding, design, marketing
The Transformation Promise
Single subject, before posture vs. after posture in rapid cut — slouched scrolling phone → standing confident, phone showing income notification
Hope + aspiration
Coaching programs, fitness, business, mindset
The Exclusive Access
Camera slowly pushes through a half-open door into a warmly lit room with a whiteboard full of insider frameworks — the viewer is being let in
Intrigue + belonging
Masterclasses, premium memberships, inner circles
The Social Proof Flash
Rapid montage of 4–6 results cards or testimonial stills, each on screen for 12 frames — too fast to read fully but pattern-registers as "many people succeeded"
FOMO + credibility
Established courses with a results library
The Authority Reveal
Close-up of hands writing a key framework on paper or whiteboard, camera slowly pulls back to reveal the instructor's confident face
Single frame of a person staring at a blinking cursor, overflowing inbox, or blank spreadsheet — paused in the moment before the breakthrough
Empathy + identification
Any course solving a specific frustrating problem
Hook construction rule: Write the hook shot description first. If you cannot describe it in one sentence that would make sense to a stranger, it is not specific enough.
Visual Style Templates
Template A — The Classroom Cinematic
Mood: Warm, expert, aspirational. Feels like a premium Netflix documentary about a genius teacher.
Core visual grammar:
Deep focus on the instructor, soft bokeh on background bookshelves or whiteboards
Color grade: consistent LUT across all clips — choose one (warm film, clean digital, moody dark)
Camera movement: mostly static or subtle push-in per clip; movement comes from cuts, not camera work
Text overlays: counter-style numbers ("47 lessons," "3,200+ students," "Week 1 result:"), appearing via quick fade
When to use: Webinar replay promotion, course launch week, social media ads where you want high information density, email header videos
Input pairing: Maximum inputs — fill all 9 image slots and 3 video slots; the montage needs variety to work
Lighting Presets
Lighting is the single biggest variable Seedance 2.0 responds to for "feel." Always specify it explicitly.
Academy Clean
Lighting: soft box key light at 45 degrees camera left, white fill card camera right,
practical lamp in background slightly overexposed for warmth, no harsh shadows,
color temperature 4800K, slight warm gel on key
Effect: Professional, trustworthy, accessible. Works at all price points.
Avoid for: Luxury/high-ticket programs (too approachable, not exclusive enough)
Moody Expert
Lighting: single hard key light from above-left casting strong facial shadow,
deep background with single warm practical source (lamp or candle),
color temperature 3200K on key, 2700K on background practical,
subtle blue-teal rim light from camera-right for dimension
Effect: Authority, depth, seriousness. The viewer senses this person knows things others don't.
Best for: High-ticket coaching, leadership programs, financial education, legal/professional training
Warm Workshop
Lighting: large window-light simulation (soft, directional, slightly cool at 5500K),
warm practical sources scattered in background (3000K),
no visible shadows — diffused and even — feels like a well-lit creative studio,
slight fill from a white V-flat to open up shadows
Effect: Friendly, creative, hands-on. Like learning in a bright studio with your favorite teacher.
Best for: Creative courses (design, photography, writing), DIY/craft education, wellness coaching, community-driven programs
Sound Design
Sound is specified in the prompt but rendered by Seedance 2.0 based on audio inputs and description. Always specify three layers.
Music Templates
Track A — "The Climb"
Music: orchestral build starting with solo piano, strings entering at 4 seconds,
full ensemble at 8 seconds, tempo 72 BPM, key of D major, no percussion until 10 seconds,
emotional tone: hopeful determination
Use for: transformation story arcs, before/after reveals, coaching program main promos
Track B — "Momentum"
Music: modern cinematic electronic, four-on-the-floor kick at 120 BPM starting immediately,
pulsing bass, bright synthesizer lead entering at 3 seconds,
emotional tone: confidence, forward motion, unstoppable
Use for: skill-based courses, launch week urgency content, social media ads
Track C — "Deep Work"
Music: minimal lo-fi piano, 80 BPM, subtle vinyl texture, no melody — just rhythm and texture,
single bass note pads underneath, emotional tone: focused calm, intellectual depth
Use for: webinar promotions, educational content trailers, long-form course previews
Voice Template
When including voiceover narration (via @material[audio1] or prompted):
Voiceover: [gender/tone descriptor] voice, warm and direct, speaking at 140 words per minute,
no music during voiceover — underscore only (music at -18dB),
voice enters at [timestamp], one breath between each key statement,
tone is [choose: authoritative / conversational / conspiratorial / celebratory]

Seedance 2.0 prompt — 12 seconds, 16:9 horizontal, masterclass registration teaser
HOOK [0:00–0:02]

a single circled word in the center of the diagram, slowly pulls back to reveal the
full framework. Academy Clean lighting preset. Color grade: clean, bright, slightly
warm. No text overlay. No music. Only ambient room tone.
The viewer should feel: "I want to see what that whole framework says."

80 BPM. Voiceover sits clearly above music.

OVERALL TREATMENT

treatment. Text overlay: instructor first name only, large, upper-third, white.
Below name, smaller: "Notion Consultant · 6 years" — appears 0.5s after name.

Hard cut to brand color background (specify hex). Single CTA text: "Grab the system."
Text scales from 80% to 105% (slight overshoot spring animation) and holds.
URL or handle appears 0.3s after headline. Music: final beat lands on cut to CTA,
then one-frame drum hit, then sustained pad to end.
Example 4 — Webinar Registration Urgency Video (9:16, 8 seconds)
Use case: Instagram Stories countdown ad for a live webinar happening in 48 hours. Minimal assets — one image and music only.
Assets:@material[image1] = instructor lifestyle photo (casual, confident), @material[audio1] = tense electronic music with building energy
Seedance 2.0 prompt — 8 seconds, 9:16 vertical, webinar urgency story ad
HOOK [0:00–0:02]
@material[image1] treated with digital split-leak effect: sharp vertical light streak
across center of frame, as if the image is "loading in." Warm Moody Expert grade —
hard directional light, deep background, teal rim light.
Text overlay at 0:00: "48 hours." — single phrase, massive type (50% frame width),
center frame, white, no animation — hard cut on with the image.
Sound: @material[audio1] music enters — tense, pulsing, electronic, 120 BPM,
no melody yet — just rhythm and tension.
BRIDGE [0:02–0:05]
Camera slow push-in on instructor face. Same grade.
Text sequence (each line replaces previous via hard cut timed to music beat):
0:02 — "I'm going live."
0:03 — "One time only."
0:04 — "No replay."
Each line: centered, bold white sans, 60% frame width. Rhythm matches beat.
Sound: synthesizer melody enters at 0:03, building.
CTA [0:05–0:08]
Hard cut to solid dark background (brand color or near-black).
Large white headline: "Register Free — Link in Bio"
Below: date, time, and timezone in smaller weight type.
Swipe-up arrow animation (if platform supports) — simple upward loop, 2px white line.
Sound: music peaks, single satisfying transient hit on cut, then fades fast to silence
over final 2 seconds — leaving the CTA in silence for maximum readability.
Prompt Construction Rules
Rule 1 — Write the emotional target, not just the visual.
At least once per section, state: "The viewer should feel: [specific emotion]." This directly influences Seedance 2.0's color, pacing, and performance choices.
Rule 2 — CTA is always a hard cut.
Soft fades reduce click-through. Always: "Hard cut to [background]. [CTA text]. [Duration held]."
Rule 3 — Match video length to platform.
Instagram/TikTok Stories or Reels: 6–10 seconds
YouTube pre-roll: 10–15 seconds (hook before 5s skip button)
Rule 4 — Chain generations for complete videos.
One generation = 4–15 seconds. For a 30-second ad, write 3 separate prompts (Hook + Body + CTA) and chain them in the Higgsfield timeline editor.
