DramaDirector: Geometry-Guided Short Drama Generation
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.

FilmBench: A Film-Grade Benchmark for Cinematic Video Generation
arXiv:2607. 24241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 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.

FilmBench: A Film-Grade Benchmark for Cinematic Video Generation
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.

From Personas to Plot: Character-Grounded Multi-Agent Story Generation for Long-Form Narratives
arXiv:2607. 00918v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive creative fiction generation, they struggle to maintain narrative consistency and coherent plot lines in long-form stories.

StoryTeller: Training-Free Narrative Grounding for Long-Form Audio Description
arXiv:2607. 11798v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-form audio description (AD) requires more than describing visible actions: it must preserve characters, events, relationships, and story context across scenes so that blind and low-vision (BLV) audiences can follow a film.
