Leaf-guard mesh is the hood SKU, not a trough ad

Micro-mesh photo then Seedance 2.5 I2V. A generated eave invents a different profile than the catalog hood.

Leaf-guard video that books is this hood on this mesh: hole size, hem, the way the screen sits in the trough you actually ship. It is not a pretty roofline the model invented, and it is not a contractor tear-off. Photograph the guard. Animate the guard. Leave the house out of the generate unless the house is a plate you own.

The hood is the SKU. The trough ad is someone else.

A micro-mesh listing is hardware. Weave, aperture, the rolled edge, the colour of the screen you stock. Those pixels have to survive a pause. If the hood profile sits on the wrong axis in the jpeg, every second of motion is a wrong SKU. Approve the still on a bench, a section of trough, or a hanger — no invented fascia required.

Text-to-video "gutter guards on a suburban eave, autumn leaves" will pick a cousin profile, a different hem, a house that is "roof-shaped." That is a trough ad for a contractor who does not sell your part. The buyer matching a hood to a box notices the mesh before they notice the maple.

/for/roofers is the trade page: drone inspection, tear-off, underlayment, a homeowner who cannot see the product they bought. 9:16. Facebook and YouTube Shorts. That audience sells transparency on a roof they actually stood on. It is not an OEM catalog of micro-mesh. Do not rewrite that page as a hood SKU, and do not import a generated shingle field into the mesh still.

Do not generate a homeowner on a ladder. Do not generate a crew. Empty hardware is the spec. Empty is how a distributor reads the part.

Photograph the mesh. Then buy motion.

Frame one is a photograph of the hood you sell, mesh readable, hem in frame, trough geometry true if the listing needs the trough. Crop the yard. Hold the nameplate if the row needs the nameplate. If the still would not pass a packaging proof, stop. Every second of video from a melted weave is waste.

Image-to-video keeps the upload as the opening frame. The weave, the hood, the hem survive because they were already in the picture. The prompt is camera and physics: a slow orbit, light sliding across the mesh, a leaf that was already on the screen if it was in the still. Do not prompt a new eave. Do not prompt "water sheet off the guard" if the still has no water — that is a claim the model will stage on a cousin profile.

Keep the mesh large. Fine aperture is the first thing a generator loses. If hole size is the SKU, it has to fill the frame.

Seedance 2.5 holds the hood. It does not invent the fascia.

Seedance 2.5 is the still-to-motion family: four to thirty seconds, 720p, listed 47 credits, native audio with the picture. I2V is the job on that family. The published URL is this family page, not a second I2V slug. Thirty seconds in one pass is how the hood does not drift. Stitching short text-to-video eaves is how you get a cousin profile at second twelve.

720p is the ceiling on this family. Identity of the mesh matters more than a 4K invention of a different guard. Native audio is on — write the mix (quiet wind, a dry screen) or write silence. A silent brief still gets a soundtrack you did not choose. Do not prompt a rainstorm you do not sell. Rain on a leaf guard is a performance claim.

Prompt travel only. Locked camera or a slow push. Mesh holds. Hood holds. No new fascia. No new trough section. If the shot must end on a square-on hood, that is a last-frame problem on a first-last row, not a reason to let Seedance invent an eave at second twenty.

Start shorter than thirty. A 4- or 5-second hold is the honest test. Thirty seconds of the wrong hem is a long miss. Inspect the midpoint. If the middle restamps the weave, reroll the motion, not the still, unless the still was the lie.

Muted autoplay still needs a mesh size or a CTA on the file. Seedance will not letter the aperture. Add a text overlay burns one authored line, whole clip, top / center / bottom. Hole size is overlay, not generated type in the weave.

A generated eave is a different profile

Do not:

• Text-to-video a "beautiful home, seamless gutters, micro-mesh."
• I2V a stock roofline and hope the hood matches your catalog.
• Ask the model to "show water shedding" as proof the SKU works.

Water on a generated fascia is a demo of a house you do not own, on a guard you did not photograph. Overlay a line you will stand behind. Do not let the generate become the test. A talking installer explaining "why mesh beats screens" is a second asset, with a real named person, on a different day. The hood still does not have to talk.

The test: cover the logo. Can a buyer still recognise the hood and the weave? If the answer is a pretty eave, you made a trough ad. Photograph the mesh. I2V that. Overlay the size.

FAQ

Can Seedance invent an eave if I describe our hood in the prompt?

No. A sentence is not a plate. Text-to-video will sample a cousin profile. Upload the micro-mesh photo and describe only the travel.

Why Seedance 2.5 instead of a silent cheap row?

Because the job is a still-to-motion hold on the family page: 4–30s, 720p, 47 credits, native audio. I2V is that job. A cheap text-to-video eave will not hold this hood.

Where does mesh size go if it cannot be in the generate?

Type it. One authored overlay after picture lock. Aperture is a spec. Generated glyphs in the weave are a miss you regenerate to fix.

Is this the same as a roofer's gutter video?

No. /for/roofers is the job on the house: inspection, tear-off, a roof they stood on. This page is the hood SKU. Do not mix those stills.
