What Shopify Product Videos Can You Make?
Six ecommerce video types that Shopify merchants generate with Seedance 2.0 — each with a ready-to-use prompt template.
Product Detail Page (PDP) Showcase
Generate a clean 360-style orbit or slow pan around your product for the main video slot on your Shopify product page. Supply your product photo as a reference image in image-to-video mode to anchor the product's appearance. Works for apparel, skincare, electronics, homeware, and most physical products.
Prompt template
Slow 360-degree orbit around a minimalist white ceramic skincare bottle on a marble surface. Soft studio lighting, clean white background, photorealistic product photography style, cinematic.
Lifestyle & In-Context Video
Show your product being used in a real-world setting — kitchen, bedroom, outdoor, or studio — without a photo shoot. Text-to-video lets you specify the scene, the product, and the lifestyle context. For higher accuracy, upload a product reference image and describe the lifestyle scene in the prompt.
Prompt template
A person pours coffee from a matte black insulated flask into a ceramic cup on a rustic wooden table. Morning light through a window, cosy kitchen background, soft focus bokeh, cinematic.
Social Media Ad Clip (TikTok / Reels)
Create 9:16 vertical clips optimised for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Shopify social ads. Fast cuts, motion reveals, and high-contrast visuals perform well in feed formats. Generate multiple variations of the same product in different settings to A/B test ad creative without a photoshoot.
Prompt template
Dynamic close-up reveal of a sleek wireless earbud case opening, white earbuds inside, fast zoom-in with subtle lens flare. Dark background, product photography style, vertical 9:16 format, high contrast.
Hero Banner & Homepage Video
Replace static homepage hero images with a looping video banner that showcases your product category or brand aesthetic. Wide cinematic shots with slow motion or parallax movement work well as background loops. Generate at 16:9 for desktop and 9:16 for mobile.
Prompt template
Wide cinematic shot of a minimalist skincare collection — glass bottles and jars arranged on a marble shelf. Slow parallax push-in, warm soft studio lighting, clean white background, photorealistic.
Collection & Category Feature
Produce a short clip showcasing your entire product collection arranged as a flat lay or grouped scene. Use multi-reference mode to supply images of multiple products and anchor their appearance together in a single generation — useful for seasonal collection announcements and category landing pages.
Prompt template
Overhead flat lay of a summer apparel collection — linen shirts, shorts, and accessories in neutral tones on a white surface. Slow pull-back reveal, natural daylight, editorial fashion photography style.
Unboxing & Packaging Reveal
Showcase your product packaging and unboxing experience — a strong brand touchpoint for premium products. Generate an animated opening sequence showing your box, tissue paper, and product reveal. Supply your packaging as a reference image for accuracy.
Prompt template
Hands open a premium matte black gift box revealing a folded cream linen shirt wrapped in tissue paper. Slow reveal, warm light, close-up macro detail, luxury unboxing aesthetic, cinematic.

Prepare your product reference image

Select your video type and write the prompt
Choose from the templates on this page and adapt for your product: material, colour, setting, lighting, and camera movement. Specific material descriptions (matte black, brushed gold, translucent glass) produce more accurate results than generic ones.

Common questions about Seedance 2.0 for Shopify
- Can I create Shopify product videos without a photo shoot?
- Yes. Seedance 2.0 generates product videos from text prompts alone — no existing footage or photography required. You describe the product, material, colour, setting, and camera movement, and the model produces a photorealistic clip. For higher fidelity to a specific product, use image-to-video mode with your existing product photo as a reference input.
- What aspect ratios does Seedance 2.0 support for Shopify videos?
- Seedance 2.0 supports 16:9 (landscape), 9:16 (vertical), and 1:1 (square) aspect ratios. Use 16:9 for Shopify product detail page videos and homepage hero banners. Use 9:16 for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Shopify social media ad placements. Use 1:1 for Instagram feed posts.
- How do I keep my product looking consistent across multiple clips?
- Use image-to-video mode with your product photo as a reference image — this anchors the product's visual identity in the generated clip. For a clip series showing the same product in different settings, use multi-reference mode and supply the same product reference image each time alongside the setting description.
- How many product video clips can I generate per credit pack?
- The Basic Pack ($29, 800 credits) yields approximately 15 five-second clips at 720p. The Creator Pack ($79, 2,200 credits) yields approximately 42 clips.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I use Seedance 2.0 videos in paid Shopify and Meta ads?
- Yes. All paid plans and credit packs include commercial usage rights for generated content. You can use the clips in Shopify product pages, Meta/Facebook ads, TikTok ads, Google Shopping, and any other commercial placement without additional licensing fees. Review the Terms of Service on seedance2-video.com for the full scope of commercial rights.
- How long should a Shopify product video be?
- For Shopify product detail pages, 5–10 seconds of clean product motion performs well as a looping video. For TikTok and Reels ads, 5–15 seconds is the standard hook-and-reveal format. For homepage hero banners, 5–8 seconds as a seamless loop is typical. Seedance 2.0 generates clips from 5 seconds up — you can stitch multiple 5-second clips together in a video editor for longer formats.
- Can I generate videos from my existing Shopify product photos?
- Yes — upload your existing product photos as reference images in image-to-video mode. Seedance 2.0 will animate the product into a moving clip, adding camera motion (pan, pull-back, orbit) based on your prompt while preserving the product's visual identity from the reference photo.
- What is the cheapest way to start creating Shopify product videos?
- The Basic Pack at $29 is a one-time purchase of 800 credits — approximately 15 five-second product clips at 720p — with no subscription and no auto-renewal. This is enough to produce a complete video set for a single product launch (PDP video, social ad variation, homepage clip) and evaluate the workflow before committing to a monthly plan or larger pack.
- Can I create A/B test variations of the same product video?
- Yes. Generate multiple clips of the same product with different backgrounds, lighting, or camera movements by adjusting the prompt while keeping the product reference image constant. This gives you multiple creative variations of the same product from a single reference photo — suitable for A/B testing ad creatives on Meta, TikTok, or Google Shopping without repeat photography costs.
- Does Seedance 2.0 support vertical video for mobile-first Shopify stores?
- Yes. Select the 9:16 aspect ratio for vertical output optimised for mobile viewing — compatible with TikTok, Instagram Reels, Shopify mobile product pages, and Story-format ads. All resolutions (480p, 720p, 1080p) are available in 9:16 format across paid plans.
