VideoGen-Agent is a multimodal agent that uses multitask agentic reinforcement learning to coordinate external tools for video generation. It learns to augment, generate, and verify videos through multi‑turn interactions, guided by prompts and intermediate observations. On the new VABench benchmark, the agent improves base text‑to‑video performance by 19.1 points, and further upgrades to generation tools raise the score to 86.1, with human raters favoring the upgraded configuration in 84.3% of comparisons.

Recent advances in video generative models have enabled high-fidelity, temporally coherent video generation. However, these models often struggle to satisfy prompts requiring specialized knowledge, sp...
The paper introduces the Multi-Instruction Multi-Shot Long-Video Editing (MMLVE) task, aiming to edit long videos with multiple instructions while maintaining consistency across shots, decoupling instructions, and preserving spatiotemporal structure. It proposes an agentic editing framework that combines Large Language Models and Vision‑Language Models for shot-level decoupling and precise instruction parsing. A new dataset, MMLVE‑Bench, and three evaluation metrics are created to benchmark this task, and experiments show the proposed MMLVE‑Agent outperforms existing closed‑source state‑of‑the‑art methods by eliminating hallucinations and ensuring seamless transitions.

Short dramas, with their rapid shot rhythms, dialogue-driven focus shifts, and demanding cinematographic grounding, pose challenges that prompt-level or text-only video generation pipelines struggle to meet. We study plot-to-short-drama generation, where a global plot and local context are transformed into visually grounded multi-shot videos.
