In the first level of the AI VFX course, Adil swaps the world around a walking shot: Claude reads his clip, his skill locks everything that must stay as shot and names the second of the change, and Seedance 2.0 replaces only the background with a desert at sunset.

Threads in this video
- restate · Which LLM should be used to write video prompts? — Step two: turn on the Seedance 2.0 VFX Claude skill and tell it the one change wanted, such as swapping the background to a desert at sunset right when he snaps his fingers; the skill writes the full prompt. (00:00:38)
- restate · How do you add AI VFX to your own footage? — Adil says what makes VFX over footage work is that the skill writes down everything that must stay exactly as shot (face, walk, rings, every gesture, the exact handheld camera move) and locks it. (00:00:38)
- refine · How do you change the background or location of an existing video? — The skill's prompt also names the exact seconds at which the background changes, so Seedance 2.0 swaps only the world behind Adil. (00:00:38)
