Seedream 5.0 Pro is ByteDance's image generation and editing model for turning visual briefs into finished pictures. Start with a written prompt, or bring reference images and describe a change. Its creative range spans photographic scenes, stylized artwork, product compositions and designs that combine imagery with text.
Seedream 5.0 Pro prompt examples
Try three different briefs: a bold product campaign, a typographic poster and a cinematic world. Each illustration suggests a visual direction; adapt the prompt to your own subject and style.
A product campaign with an edge
Editorial campaign photograph of cobalt-blue over-ear headphones with brushed-aluminum details, arranged diagonally on a polished steel slab. One translucent vermilion acrylic panel stands behind them against an icy pale-gray studio backdrop. Hard directional light, crisp geometric shadows, believable reflections and tactile ear cushions. A confident, asymmetrical square composition. No brand names, labels or extra text.
A poster with a clear hierarchy
Design a square contemporary music-event poster. Oversized condensed white lettering spells AFTER HOURS on a deep ink-black background. A sculptural cobalt-blue ribbon cuts through one electric-orange circle. Set a small secondary line reading SOUND / LIGHT / MOVEMENT and a restrained footer reading FRIDAY · 8 PM. Strong editorial grid, sharp typography, deliberate negative space and subtle print texture. No logos or additional wording.
A world built around one idea
A low electric-orange research station with dark glass windows stands on a black volcanic shoreline beneath an enormous pale-blue moon. Almost still ocean, distant basalt cliffs and cold cobalt mist. One small explorer in a silver technical suit establishes scale. Photoreal materials, restrained surrealism, cinematic twilight and a wide architectural composition within a square frame. No lettering, logos or interface elements.
