Seedance 2.5 Animation prompt (raw output) + added Suno Bgm
30-second stylised 3D animated short film. 19 hard cuts, average 1.6s per shot. NO on-screen text, NO subtitles, NO readable lettering anywhere — all signage is abstract glowing colour shapes only.
STYLE (every frame): Stylised feature-animation 3D CG. Faceted low-poly geometry with hand-chiselled planar cuts — fabric folds read as carved wedges, not cloth simulation. Exaggerated cartoon proportions: heavy shoulders, thick forearms, small hands, short legs, oversized head. Matte painterly surfaces, zero PBR gloss, fine canvas grain over the whole image. Skin has soft subsurface warmth and a hard wet rim light. Cel-adjacent shading with crisp terminator lines and soft ambient occlusion in creases. Wide-angle 18-24mm lens throughout with visible barrel distortion, shallow depth of field, heavy radial motion blur on backgrounds, volumetric shafts through steam and rain. Rain is faceted streaks, not particles. Cuts land hard on the beat.
CAST (locked, identical in every shot): KAVI — 27-year-old Tamil woman tea master. Compact and broad, low centre of gravity, thick forearms, short legs. Deep brown skin, broad flat nose, heavy straight brows, thin steel nose ring, pale old burn scar across the left forearm. Black hair oiled into a tight low bun with one white jasmine strand. Wardrobe: sun-bleached crimson work sari hitched short over black shorts, scorched grey thermal sleeves shoved to the elbow, black rubber apron, a stack of steel bangles on the right wrist only. Props: two dented brass tumblers.
PALETTE: monsoon night. Wet blue-black asphalt, cold slate rain, one sodium-orange stall lamp as the only key, magenta and cyan neon bleeding in from off-frame, brass and copper highlights, a single crimson accent, pale steam white.
STORY: The 9pm rush hits a rain-flooded street-food lane and Kavi outruns it on pure craft, ending alone in the steam.
BEATS:
0.0-1.4 Macro, static, rack focus: a raindrop bursts on the rim of a brass tumbler into faceted shards, sodium lamp flaring behind.
1.4-2.8 Puddle-height 18mm, low tracking dolly right: her rubber sandals stamp into standing water, sheets peeling sideways in solid slabs.
2.8-4.4 Low hero angle, slow crane up into a 4-frame snap zoom: she plants both hands on the counter as the lamp bangs on and steam blooms up her body.
4.4-5.8 Whip pan across a queue of blurred umbrella silhouettes, settling on her hands seizing two tumblers.
5.8-7.0 Fast dolly in on her face: jaw set, magenta on one cheek, orange on the other, rain beading on her brows.
7.0-8.6 Vertical crane down following the pour: she rips the tumblers a metre apart, an amber ribbon of tea stretched taut between them.
8.6-10.2 Full 360 orbit at waist height, background smearing to streaks as she pours again without looking.
10.2-11.4 Top-down bird's-eye snap: the tea hits the lower tumbler dead centre, crown splash held two frames then blurred.
11.4-13.0 Handheld push through a curtain of steam, her silhouette resolving out of pure white.
13.0-14.6 Whip pan right to a rival stall's neon guttering out, a cook staring; her hands keep working at frame edge.
14.6-16.0 Low wide, speed ramp: a scooter tears a puddle open, a wall of water slabbing up; she pivots and shields the tray with her back without losing rhythm.
16.0-17.8 Slow-motion macro arc around one tumbler tipping off the tray edge, bangles blurring past.
17.8-19.0 Snap to real time, whip tilt up: she catches it behind her back on two fingers.
19.0-20.6 Crash zoom into her eyes; one brow lifts a millimetre.
20.6-22.2 Fast lateral dolly along the counter as she slides seven full tumblers down it, one per hand-flick, steam trailing each.
22.2-23.6 Reverse low angle from behind the queue: hands reaching in from every side taking cups, her figure small and centred, lamp flaring.
23.6-25.4 Drone crane pull-up out of the lane: the stall is one hot orange dot in a grid of wet blue-black rooftops, rain thinning.
25.4-27.4 Cut to ground level, slow push in: the lane empty, the last umbrella turning a corner, puddles gone glass-still.
27.4-30.0 Static low hero: Kavi pours one last tumbler for herself, steam rising straight up as the rain stops, she exhales, the lamp flickers once, hold, slow fade.
AUDIO: No dialogue. Rain drumming on tin, kettle hiss, brass ringing on brass, the hard splash of the long pour, scooter doppler, crowd murmur, bangles clattering. Music: driving Tamil percussion — thavil and kanjira over a low sub-bass pulse, tempo climbing to a peak at 22.2s, everything dropping to rain and one held drone at 27.4s.
NEGATIVE: no text, no lettering, no watermark, no photorealism, no PBR gloss, no live action, no plastic skin, no extra fingers, no morphing faces, no character/wardrobe/palette drift, no daylight, no drifting camera, no crossfades, no bloom overload, no still frames.
"A Pixar style short. Dave checks the sky before leaving home, gets ambushed by one furious city pigeon, and the chase does not end well for him."
Same prompt bar, two very different looks.

Which would you run?
A cinematic Pixar-style animated short film with feature-film-quality 3D animation, expressive stylized characters, vibrant modern city, warm golden-hour lighting, shallow depth of field, dynamic cinematic camera movement, emotional orchestral score, polished Pixar-quality rendering, expressive facial animation, and cinematic storytelling.
A beautiful 20-year-old college girl with a short dark-brown bob haircut, expressive brown eyes, wearing a bright yellow oversized hoodie, blue jeans, white sneakers, and a brown crossbody bag is sprinting through a busy city street while two police officers chase after her.
Police Officer:
“Stop!”
Police Officer:
“We’ll catch you!”
She suddenly collides with a goofy-looking 20-year-old college boy with messy curly dark hair, round glasses, an oversized green hoodie, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers.
Everything instantly slows down.
They lock eyes.
The girl smiles warmly.
Girl:
“Sorry.”
She immediately continues running.
A city bus arrives.
She jumps aboard just before the doors close.
The police officers reach the bus a second too late.
The bus drives away.
The boy stands frozen, watching it disappear.
Part 2
Continue seamlessly from the previous scene. Maintain the exact same characters, clothing, facial features, lighting, city environment, and Pixar-style feature-film-quality 3D animation.
Later that evening, the goofy college boy sits alone in his cozy bedroom, replaying the moment in his mind.
Quick cinematic flashbacks show the collision and her smile.
He sighs.
Boy:
“No… she’s a thief.”
The next morning, he waits alone at the same bus stop.
He isn’t carrying anything.
After another bus leaves, he smiles awkwardly.
Boy:
“What am I doing?”
Just as he starts to walk away, a familiar voice calls from behind.
Girl:
“Looking for this?”
He turns around.
The same girl stands there smiling while holding one of his missing books.
She hands it back to him.
At that moment, the two police officers walk into frame escorting a handcuffed pickpocket.
One officer smiles at the girl.
Police Officer:
“Thanks for your help!”
The boy looks completely confused.
The girl simply smiles back.
The camera slowly pulls back as the boy realizes she was never the thief.
Cut to black.
[Global Setting] A traditional kung fu temple courtyard at golden hour, stone walls with calligraphy, bamboo stalks, red lanterns, peaceful serene setting. 3D stylized anime aesthetic rounded appealing characters, exaggerated expressive proportions, big sparkly eyes, comedic action animation style.
[Character 1 Boy] Age 8-10, spiky orange anime hair, oversized white kung fu gi (too big, sleeves falling), headband tied crooked, determined serious face (but trying too hard), energetic stance. Self-proclaimed "kung fu master."
[Character 2 Girl] Age 8-10, long pink pigtails with ribbons, matching small pink kung fu gi, headband perfectly placed, skeptical expression, hands on hips. Actual skills.
[Opening, 0–4s] Wide shot of temple courtyard. Boy in dramatic kung fu stance, shouting: "I am the LEGENDARY MASTER OF WIND STRIKE!" Girl sighs: "You just learned this yesterday." Boy points at her: "PREPARE YOURSELF!" Girl cracks knuckles: "This will be quick."
[Comedic Battle Phase 1, 4–12s] Boy throws slow-motion dramatic punch, sleeves flapping everywhere covering his face. Girl easily sidesteps: "You're punching air." Boy recovers, attempts spinning kick, rotates too far, stumbles: "I meant to do a double spin!" Girl does perfect precise kick, boy flies backward into pile of hay dramatically. Boy pops up: "I let you win!" Girl: "Sure you did." Boy attempts ancient "secret technique" — just wiggles his fingers mysteriously. Girl stares: "That's not kung fu, that's jazz hands." Boy gasps: "It's ANCIENT MAGIC!" Girl: "It's ridiculous."
[Epic Slow-Motion Moment, 12–18s] Boy charges with warrior cry: "AIIYAHHH!" Camera enters slow-motion at 40% speed. Boy's movement is perfectly exaggerated face scrunched up with effort, sleeves billowing dramatically, hair defying gravity. Girl prepares to counter, eyes calm and focused, background blurs. As boy gets close, girl executes perfect counter-strike in slow-mo, boy flies backward in slow-motion arc, expression shocked, leaves and dust particles suspend around him beautifully. Return to normal speed.
[Comedic Recovery, 18–24s] Boy lands hard, dazed stars circling his head (anime style). Girl helps him up: "You okay?" Boy jumps up: "YES! Again!" Attempts helicopter kick, spins out of control, dizzy, crashes into lantern (doesn't break, just wobbles). Girl just shakes her head laughing. Boy: "That lantern was STRONG." Girl: "The lantern is fine. YOU'RE the problem."
[Final Stand, 24–30s] They face each other one last time, both in dramatic kung fu poses. Golden light catching both their faces. Boy: "This time I'll definitely win!" Girl smiles: "No you won't." They charge at each other, both doing exaggerated kicks, meet mid-air in freeze-frame, both suspended in mid-kick looking equally confused. Girl: "Um, now what?" Boy: "I don't know!" They both tumble down laughing, rolling in grass, sunshine warm and golden. End on them lying in courtyard laughing, friendship and silliness, genuine joy.
[CONSISTENCY] Same two anime children, boy (orange hair, oversized gi), girl (pink pigtails, fitted gi). Traditional temple courtyard, golden hour lighting throughout. Exaggerated anime kung fu moves mixed with genuine combat skills. Boy is goofy and enthusiastic, girl is competent and amused. Physical comedy with respect.
Audio: Serene temple ambience, birds, wind through bamboo, boy's dramatic shouting "AIIYAHHH!", girl's sarcastic comments, footsteps and movement sounds, exaggerated punch and kick whoosh sounds, comedic impacts (soft, not violent), slow-motion section: all sounds deepen and stretch (warrior cry becomes deep tone, movement becomes whooshing), lantern wobbling (bong sound), both kids laughing, wind chimes from temple, bright anime action music building, soft nostalgic strings on final friendship moment, kids' genuine laughter.
