Prompt (original, unmodified)
Cinematic realistic 15-second live-action scene of a charming first date at an upscale outdoor garden cafe under large shady trees with warm string lights overhead. Photorealistic, high production value, filmic color grade. A handsome man in his mid-30s (dark wavy hair, light stubble, blue eyes, charming smile) wearing a rich brown short-sleeve polo shirt and white pants sits across from a beautiful Western woman in her mid-20s (long wavy blonde hair, expressive face, natural makeup) wearing a cream sleeveless ribbed top with black trim. Start with a medium over-the-shoulder shot from behind the man. The woman asks playfully but skeptically: “So what do you actually do? Please don’t say entrepreneur.” Cut to tight close-up on the man as he smiles confidently and replies: “Well, I flip vintage furniture, and I do some design consulting on the side.” He holds a white coffee cup. Quick reaction close-up on the woman, eyebrows slightly furrowed: “Like chairs?” He answers warmly: “Yeah, people pay a lot for chairs.” Her expression transforms — doubt melts into amusement and attraction. She smiles, looks down shyly then back up at him and says playfully: “Okay, I think I’m actually gonna head out.” Natural dappled sunlight filtering through dense green tree leaves, warm glowing string lights, shallow depth of field with creamy bokeh, rich earthy color palette (chocolate brown, cream, warm beige, lush greens), soft cinematic lighting, flattering skin tones, subtle film grain, intimate and romantic atmosphere, high detail, photorealistic, shot on 35mm film, premium commercial quality like high-end dating app ads.

The 15s duration is not arbitrary: 71% of the prompts in this library that state a duration ask for exactly 15 seconds — Seedance 2.0 accepts clips up to 15 seconds, so 15s is the model's ceiling and the most common choice.
