Prompt (original, unmodified)
Ultra-realistic 4K first-person travel vlog. A young woman is filming herself with her smartphone while spending a day at the beach with her family during golden hour. The video begins with a smiling selfie as she says hello to the camera, then she flips the camera to show the ocean and her family walking behind her. She records her younger siblings building a sandcastle, kneels down to help them while holding the phone in one hand, captures close-up shots of shells and wet sand, then switches back to selfie mode while laughing. She records her parents smiling in the background, then films everyone running into the shallow waves. The final shot is a joyful selfie with the whole family behind her splashing water. Natural handheld phone movements, realistic front and rear camera transitions, slight camera shake, authentic vlog framing, cinematic golden-hour lighting, photorealistic skin textures, genuine emotions, documentary style, no AI look.\n\nVoice-over (15 seconds)\n\n> \"Nothing beats a beach day with the people you love. Just sunshine, salty air, endless laughter, and memories I'll never forget.\"

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.
