Results
Prompt 1: Rainy night market (text check)
Prompt: Handheld night market shot in Bangkok during heavy rain, neon reflections on wet pavement, steam from food stalls, sign with clear text MANGO STICKY RICE, camera walks forward through crowd, shallow depth of field, 35mm documentary look

This prompt stresses wet reflections, crowd motion, and readable signage.
Prompt 2: Product orbit (text check)
Prompt: Studio tabletop product video of a silver smartwatch on a black acrylic stand, softbox lighting, slow orbit camera move, screen shows big text NOVA, clean gradient background, crisp reflections, realistic materials

Product shots reveal camera smoothness and material realism. The screen text adds another failure point.
Prompt 3: Underwater tracking (motion stability)
Prompt: Underwater wide shot of a sea turtle swimming through a coral reef, sun rays in water, bubbles and particles, slow tracking camera, natural color, realistic motion

Water scenes break fast when particles jitter, colors drift, or edges shimmer.
Prompt 4: Macro food prep (detail under motion)
Prompt: Macro close-up of a chef slicing a ripe tomato on a wooden board, slow motion juice splash, sharp focus on knife edge, warm kitchen light, shallow depth of field
| Seedance V1 Pro Fast | Wan 2.6 |
|---|---|
|
|
|
This prompt pushes sharp edges, fast micro motion, and messy fluids.
Prompt 5: Stop motion paper city (style control)
Prompt: Stop motion paper cutout animation, tiny cardboard city assembles itself on a desk, visible paper textures, overhead camera then gentle tilt, warm lamp light, playful motion
| Seedance V1 Pro Fast | Wan 2.6 |

|
|
Stop motion style needs deliberate stutter without turning into flicker.
