Short-drama generation has grown into a large, industrialized pipeline, and as it scales from isolated shots to the episode level, visual continuity has become a critical bottleneck. Current agent fra...
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.

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.
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.

ShotFinder introduces a new benchmark for open‑domain video shot retrieval, formalizing editing requirements as keyframe‑oriented shot descriptions and adding five controllable constraints—temporal order, color, visual style, audio, and resolution. The benchmark comprises 1,210 high‑quality YouTube samples across 20 themes, generated with large models and verified by humans. A three‑stage retrieval pipeline—query expansion via video imagination, candidate video retrieval, and description‑guided shot localization—shows a notable performance gap to humans, especially for color and visual style constraints.

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.
