Seedance 2.0

A blacksmith strikes glowing iron on an anvil in a dim workshop, sparks fly on every hit and each clang lands in sync with the picture, firelight on his face, low angle tripod shot
Wide tracking shot of a herd of horses galloping through shallow river water, spray catching the backlight, the camera moves alongside at their speed, legs and manes stay clean through the run
Wide shot of a thunderstorm rolling over wheat fields at dusk, lightning forks on the horizon and the thunder follows a beat later, wind bends the wheat toward camera, slow push-in
