Surreal prompts are AI video prompts for quickly creating dreamlike scenes that defy logic, cuts where space distorts or objects float, and subconscious-like landscapes. In Carat, you generate scenes with video models like Seedance 2.0, then keep going with follow-up work such as editing the result, changing the aspect ratio, adding captions, or stitching multiple cuts together.
Surreal video lives in the balance between breaking the rules of reality and still feeling somehow plausible. More than merely bizarre imagery, it's the dreamlike mood, the soft transitions, and the scale and color that subvert expectation that pull a viewer in. When choosing a prompt, it helps to check not just the subject but also the method of transformation, the speed of transition, color and texture, and the channel you'll use it on.
In Carat, you can build follow-up clips from a generated video, adjust it to short-form ratios, and add captions, music, and overlays to polish it into content ready to post.
