DramaDirector: Geometry-Guided Short Drama Generation

arXiv:2606. 24107v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 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.

CamPilot: A Multi-Agent Cinematic Assistant for Camera-Controlled Movie Generation

CamPilot is a multi‑agent cinematic assistant that combines cinematographic planning with camera‑work control to generate more coherent and aesthetically pleasing movies from text prompts. It learns camera‑work planning from 14,000 professional films using a GRPO‑based learning paradigm, capturing motion patterns, composition principles, and cross‑shot relationships. The system is evaluated with a new benchmark, CamEval, and outperforms existing text‑to‑movie methods in cinematographic control and quality.

MVAgent: Multi-Agent Video Generation via Consistent Condition Construction and Shot-Level Policy Optimization

MVAgent is a multi‑agent pipeline for multi‑shot video generation that ensures consistent character appearance, stable spatial layout, and continuous character state across shots. The system uses typed conditioning inputs: a Spatial Grounding agent samples camera views, an Observer records shot endings into a continuity memory, a Transition agent builds action and spatial references for subsequent shots, and an Orchestrator composes these inputs into generator requests. Trained with agentic reinforcement learning (Trunk‑GDPO) while keeping the generator and judges frozen, MVAgent achieves the highest cross‑shot consistency and narrative‑planning quality on ViMax‑Bench and is preferred over the strongest agentic baseline in human evaluation.

Prompt-Adapter Context Routing for Parameter-Efficient Multi-Shot Long Video Extrapolation

arXiv:2607. 06481v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present PACR-Video, a parameter-efficient framework for multi-shot long video extrapolation that preserves recurring entities, scene structure, visual style, and causal progression without full generator fine-tuning.

CineCap: Structured Reasoning with Spatio-Temporal Anchors for Cinematographic Video Captioning

arXiv:2606. 24636v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cinematographic captioning aims to describe how a video is filmed using professional film-language concepts such as camera movement, shot size, depth of field, composition, and shooting angle.

WanPE: Towards Cinematic Prompt Enhancement for Modern Text-to-Video Generation

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.
