About this skill

seedance-filter

Navigate the Seedance 2.0 content filter and write prompts that pass.


The Problem: The 37% Block Rate

Practitioner data (Feb 2026) shows that 37% of all Seedance 2.0 prompts are blocked. The vast majority are not actual policy violations but rather filter misjudgments of creative intent. This skill explains how the filter thinks and how to write prompts that it understands.


How the Filter Thinks

The content filter is not a simple keyword blocker. It is a language model that evaluates the entire prompt as a single, coherent scene. It assesses intent and context, not just individual words.

Filter Behavior Implication for Prompt Writing
Evaluates whole prompt as one scene A violent word in a professional, cinematic context may pass where a casual one fails.
Reads intent, not keywords "Film production" framing gets more latitude than casual descriptions.
Production language signals professionalism Shot types, lens specs, lighting terms → higher pass rate.
Casual language signals risk Prompts that read like "notes to a friend" get flagged more often.

The core principle: Write like a filmmaker, not a casual user.


The Four-Question Framework

To signal professional intent, every prompt should answer these four questions:

  1. Where is the scene? (e.g., abandoned warehouse, neon-lit alley, foggy mountaintop)
  2. What does it look like? (e.g., rusting machinery, wet pavement with reflections, ancient pine trees)
  3. What is the camera doing? (e.g., slow dolly push-in, handheld tracking shot, static wide shot)
  4. What is the atmosphere? (e.g., tense and quiet, energetic and chaotic, serene and cold)

A prompt that answers these four questions is far less likely to be misinterpreted by the filter.


High-Risk Word Categories

Certain words trigger heightened scrutiny across the entire prompt, even if the intent is innocent. Avoid them where possible.

Category High-Risk Words Safer Alternatives
Age (Youth) child, kid, young, boy, girl Describe by role (apprentice, student), action (learning to...), or relative age (the younger of the two).
Violence (Direct) kill, shoot, stab, blood Use cinematic euphemisms: neutralizes target, discharges weapon, a brief struggle, red liquid.
Intimacy intimate, sensual, passionate Describe the physical action: a gentle touch on the arm, a shared glance, standing close together.

Practical Techniques for Passing the Filter

1. Image Upload Best Practices

  • Avoid Competing Information: If you upload a character image with @Image1, do not describe their appearance in the text prompt. This creates conflicting information that confuses the filter.
  • Use Face-Away Poses: To avoid triggering facial recognition filters, use images where the character is facing away from the camera, is in silhouette, or is seen from a distance.
  • Prefer Illustration: Illustrated or stylized character art is less likely to trigger real-person likeness filters than photorealistic images.

2. The Chinese Prompt Trick

  • Community-Discovered: Some users report higher pass rates by writing the main scene description in Chinese while keeping dialogue or specific technical terms in English.
  • Why it works: The model was trained on a massive corpus of Chinese-language data, and its Chinese-language filters have different thresholds and nuances.
  • Example:
    (prompt in Chinese describing a complex action scene)
    Character A says: "We have to go, now."
    

3. Lead with Professionalism

  • Front-load cinematic language. Start your prompt with camera movements, lens types, or lighting descriptions. This immediately signals to the filter that you are creating a film, not describing a real-world event.
  • Example:
    (Good) ✅ "Low-angle tracking shot. A figure in a long coat runs down a wet alley..."
    (Bad)  ❌ "A person is running down an alley. It's dark and wet..."
    

Diagnosing a Blocked Prompt

If your prompt is blocked, follow this checklist:

  1. Check for High-Risk Words: Is there a word from the table above that could be rephrased?
  2. Check for IP/Likeness: Does it violate the rules in seedance-copyright?
  3. Check for Ambiguity: Is your intent clear? Could a machine misinterpret your creative description as a real-world policy violation?
  4. Rewrite with the Four-Question Framework: Ensure you have clearly described the Where, What, Camera, and Atmosphere.
  5. Try the Chinese Prompt Trick: As a last resort, translate the descriptive parts of your prompt to Chinese.
