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.

CinematicVQA is a new benchmark for evaluating large vision‑language models on film‑grammar reasoning. It introduces the Cinematic Scene Graph, a structured representation linking filming techniques to perceptual effects and narrative functions, and tests models on tasks beyond low‑level technique recognition. The study finds a semantic gap where models excel at describing visuals but struggle to identify underlying techniques, and shows that fine‑tuning improves performance on narrative function and multi‑hop reasoning.
The paper introduces Temporal Context Routing (TCR), a method that aligns script timing with the shared temporal axis used for audio and video generation. By routing prompt guidance to specific temporal positions in both modalities, TCR dramatically improves shot boundary accuracy and dialogue timing on a set of test scripts, while preserving visual quality and audio‑visual sync. A user study confirms that participants prefer TCR across multiple evaluation dimensions.
Progress in video generation keeps narrowing the visual gap between AI-generated and professionally produced footage, yet most benchmarks still draw prompts from web sources or LLM templates and score them with untrained, generic multimodal models. More fundamentally, their evaluation taxonomies remain rudimentary (overall visual quality, coarse text alignment and temporal smoothness) rather than the professional Cinematic Language criteria by which films are actually made and judged, so they assess basic video plausibility rather than film-grade craft.

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.
