Seedance 2.5
Selfie Vlog of a Japanese Dojo Beginner Lesson
A 20-second handheld smartphone vlog with timecoded beats: arrival at a wooden dojo, a changed training outfit, a clumsy first stance and a jump cut to better balance. Full outfit rules, Korean dialogue and a closing prohibition list.
Seedance 2.5
Beginner Kung Fu Courtyard Smartphone Vlog

Hero Ringed by Fox-Masked Assassins
A single-sentence action prompt: one young hero in a varsity jacket is encircled by several katana-wielding assassins in white fox masks, inside a brutalist concrete courtyard. Mostly a character and mood brief.

Neon Rooftop Naginata Fight and Leap

Knight vs a Many-Armed Ghost in a Crypt
