Templates are finished videos you can remake. Each one comes with its prompt, model, length, and shape already set, and many are built around a photo of a person, so you can put yourself in the scene.
The Templates tab with category chips All 126, New 57, Starring You 47, Movies 9, Anime 3, Cartoons 2, Fantasy 2, Fashion 1, and Portraits 1, and template previews such as Jellyfish Sky Ride, Last Slice Office Brawl, Western Stagecoach Showdown, Giant Dandelion Ride, Pulled Into the Game, and Ocean Sai Dance Battle

Use a template

1

Open the templates

Click the Templates tab above your results, or the Templates button at the top of the page. Pick a category to narrow the list: Starring You has templates made for your own photo, and New has the latest additions.
2

Click a template

The template fills in the prompt, the model, the length and shape, and any sample photos it needs. Its name appears at the top of the page, with a button to share the template and ✕ to remove it.
The Giant Dandelion Ride template applied: its name at the top with share and remove buttons, a sample Character photo under References (optional), the filled-in prompt, 15s, 16:9, 480p, Audio, and Generate (90 credits)
3

Put yourself in it

If the template uses a sample photo, such as the Character above, remove it with ✕, then click Add media and add a photo of yourself or your product. Keep the prompt as it is: it already refers to the photo as @image1.
4

Adjust and generate

Change anything you like, such as the length or the wording, and click Generate. The button shows the price for the template’s settings.
Removing the template with ✕ clears the settings it filled in, except the ones you’ve changed.

​
Templates that open other tools

A few templates open a different tool with everything set up: Motion Control, talking videos, or a workflow in a new tab.

​
What templates cost

A template costs what its model costs for its settings, shown on the Generate button. Many Starring You templates make 15-second videos with Seedance 2.5 Reference, which costs 90 credits at 480p. On the Free plan, only the templates that use Seedance 2.0 Mini work.

​
Examples

The Examples tab shows videos other people chose to share publicly. Recreate copies an example’s prompt into the form, so you can make your own version.
