The paper introduces Factor-Aware Predictive Learning (FAPL) to improve cinematic video generation by effectively leveraging multimodal large language model (MLLM) latents. FAPL trains a Video Diffusion Transformer (DiT) in three stages: grounding the DiT with frozen MLLM latents, enforcing factor-aware control through factor-span replacement, and optimizing temporal inference with limited-input representations while preserving full-observation reconstruction. Experiments show that FAPL outperforms baselines on sparse-to-video, factor-aware editing, and multi-shot generation tasks, demonstrating enhanced MLLM feature use, temporal control, and factor coordination.

Bernini proposes a unified framework that separates semantic planning and pixel rendering for video generation and editing. An MLLM-based planner predicts target semantics in ViT embedding space, while a DiT-based renderer synthesizes pixels conditioned on this plan, text features, and source VAE features for editing. The approach introduces Segment-Aware 3D Rotary Positional Embedding and chain-of-thought reasoning, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance on diverse video benchmarks.

Autoregressive video diffusion models have emerged as a promising approach for long video generation, achieving strong performance in streaming settings. However, existing methods are restricted to forward temporal generation, whereas practical video creation often requires flexible generation order, e.
