In the shot-list lesson of The 3-Step Realistic AI Ad Workflow, Adil turns the locked assets into Seedance 2.0 prompts with a Claude skill: he gives it the script, uploads every asset and names each one, and gets back one connected shot list with a shared style prefix and named prompts.

Threads in this video

  • restate · How do you spend fewer credits? — Adil warns against opening Seedance and typing an overloaded prompt from scratch, then tweaking and re-running it: twenty generations later a fortune is spent and the idea is a mess. (00:00:00)
  • restate · Which LLM should be used to write video prompts? — Adil never writes prompts by hand: he uses a skill he built in Claude, the engine of the shot-list stage. (00:00:00)
  • refine · Which LLM should be used to write video prompts? — In a new chat with the skill, Adil uploads every locked asset straight from the canvas instead of describing them to Claude; he says most people skip this, which is why their prompts come out generic, and the more Claude sees the better it writes. (00:00:58)
  • restate · How do you direct a multi-shot sequence? — The skill breaks every scene into prompts written for Seedance 2.0 in one connected shot list, whose style prefix block at the top (lighting, camera, colour) is glued to every prompt, so changing it once changes it everywhere. (00:01:44)
