WanPE is a 397‑B parameter prompt‑enhancement model that learns director‑level cinematic planning from 1.05 M real‑world videos. It generates shot‑level cinematic plans through video‑grounded reverse construction and uses Semantic‑Consistency GRPO (SC‑GRPO) to maintain user intent across shots and time. In evaluations, WanPE improves human preference over raw prompts by up to 50.86 points for 30‑second videos and outperforms commercial offerings for shorter durations.
Auteur is a language‑driven method that generates human‑centric camera framing for generative video models. It treats shots as framings relative to an actor, encoding shot size, angle, and composition as functions of human pose and motion, and uses a domain‑specific language that converts to standard 6‑DoF camera parameters. A fine‑tuned multimodal large language model acts as a virtual director, mapping natural language descriptions and coarse human motion to sparse DSL keyframes that are interpolated into continuous camera trajectories for video generation.

VTR-Bench is a new benchmark designed to evaluate how well video generation models render text within scenes. It includes 300 prompts across five real-world scenarios such as advertisements and scientific videos, and uses an automated pipeline with human alignment to assess text fidelity and scene/motion requirements. Experiments on 11 state‑of‑the‑art models show that even the best performer has a word error rate of 0.250, underscoring widespread challenges in visual text rendering.
arXiv:2604. 06010v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Video fundamentally intertwines two crucial axes: the dynamic content of a scene and the camera motion through which it is observed.
Modern black-box Image-to-Video (I2V) models offer powerful capabilities in automated content creation, yet their lack of fine-grained control and reliability presents significant challenges in professional workflows. Their inherent stochasticity causes minor variations in textual prompts or hyperparameters to yield drastically different outputs often necessitating inefficient, brute-force trial-and-error processes.
