Prompt (original, unmodified)
Style A single continuous front-facing smartphone selfie video recorded entirely by a young Korean woman visiting a zoo. She holds the phone herself at arm's length for the entire video. No cuts, no third-person shots, no cinematic camera work, no drone footage, no tripod. Authentic modern smartphone footage: Natural handheld shake Real walking bounce Occasional autofocus adjustments Minor exposure fluctuations Slight framing imperfections Natural front-camera lens distortion Realistic skin texture Natural daylight No beauty filters No skin smoothing No color grading No artificial HDR Character A cheerful Korean woman in her early twenties with shoulder-length dark hair tied in a loose ponytail. Outfit remains identical throughout: Oversized cream hoodie Relaxed blue jeans White sneakers She always has exactly two hands. One hand holds the phone at all times. Environment A modern zoo on a pleasant sunny afternoon. Natural ambient sounds only: Visitors chatting Footsteps Distant birds Light wind through trees Occasional animal sounds No music, subtitles, captions, logos, or watermarks. Animal Only one Bengal tiger appears in the entire video. The tiger is realistic, anatomically correct, sharp, and consistent throughout. No duplicate animals, morphing, glitches, extra limbs, or unrealistic behavior. The woman remains safely behind the visitor barrier at all times. Scene (15 Seconds) 0–5 seconds Walking along a zoo path while filming herself. The tiger enclosure comes into view behind her. She smiles excitedly at the camera. Dialogue: "Guys... there’s actually a tiger right behind me." 5–10 seconds She reaches the viewing area. The tiger slowly walks across the habitat behind her. It briefly glances toward the camera. She laughs in surprise. Dialogue: "Okay, that was way cooler than I expected." 10–15 seconds She sits on a nearby bench still holding the phone. The tiger relaxes in the shade behind her. A gentle breeze moves her hair naturally. She smiles and shakes her head. Dialogue: "I could honestly watch this all day." She slowly lowers the phone, creating a natural imperfect ending as the recording stops. Target Result: indistinguishable from a genuine smartphone selfie vlog uploaded by a real zoo visitor, with natural human behavior, authentic phone-camera imperfections, realistic tiger movement, and zero AI-generated appearance.

How this prompt compares
The techniques this prompt uses are more common in UGC prompts than in the library overall:
| Technique | In UGC | Library average | Lift |
|---|---|---|---|
| handheld | 78% | 24% | 3.22x |
| close-up | 64% | 40% | 1.6x |
| natural light | 64% | 28% | 2.26x |
Across all 5,926 prompts, the techniques used here appear at: close-up 40%, natural light 29%, handheld 24%, aerial/drone 11%.
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.
