Photo-driven setup
Replace the included reference with your own clear photo while retaining the 9:16 composition and effect instructions.

Model, Prompt & Settings
Model
Seedance 1.5 Pro (seedance_1_5_pro)
Input
One reference image is included. Replace it with a clear photo while keeping the prompt focused on the same effect.
Output settings
5s video, 720p, 9:16, with AI audio enabled.
Default prompt
The subject transformed into a whimsical gothic character, wearing an elaborate black lace dress with Victorian details, oversized bows, antique jewelry, and playful dark fantasy aesthetics. Soft candlelight and magical mystery surround them.
How It Works
A direct workflow from one clear reference photo to a short AI video.
Choose a reference photo
Use a sharp, well-lit image with the main subject clearly visible and enough room for the requested composition.
Keep the preset settings
Start with 5s video, 720p, 9:16, with AI audio enabled. These values match the selected AIReiter model contract.
Generate and refine
Compare the first result with the example, then refine the subject, camera, lighting, or motion detail most important to this effect.
Best Practices
Input and prompt choices that improve gothic whimsy generations.
Protect the main subject
Use a sharp, well-lit source image with the main subject fully visible and enough surrounding space for the requested composition.
Preserve the composition
Keep 9:16 for the first run. Changing the ratio can alter cropping, subject scale, and camera framing.
Change one variable at a time
Keep the Gothic Whimsy effect instructions stable and change only one major variable per generation so the visual differences are easy to compare.
Best Use Cases
Practical ways to use the Gothic Whimsy effect in creator and commercial workflows.
Best audiences and formats
TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, storyboards, and creator campaigns
Short-form story testing
Preview the Gothic Whimsy motion, framing, and pacing before expanding the idea into a longer edit or campaign.

Reuse seedance_1_5_pro, the same prompt structure, and the preset settings to generate controlled variations programmatically.
