CoaG introduces a minimal geometric interface— a ground plane grid and a single cylinder per person—to control the placement and movement of people and the camera in generated videos. Users draw the grid, position cylinders, and animate them over 81 frames; the model then renders a photorealistic video that follows these layouts and camera paths, with appearance guided by a text prompt and a background image. To train the system, the authors automatically generate 2,000 captioned clips, reconstruct geometry from each clip, and fine‑tune a LoRA on Wan2.2‑Fun‑Control, enabling the model to respect user‑drawn layouts and camera motions on unseen clips.

We ask how little geometry a person has to draw to control both where people stand and where the camera moves in a generated video. Our answer is a ground plane and one cylinder per person. A user dra...
Generative Cinematographer (GenCine) lifts a single image into an editable 3D scene scaffold, allowing artists to jointly author camera paths and foreground motion using local 3D motion handles. The system projects these controls into guidance maps that encode handle positions and colors across frames, enabling a pretrained video model to follow camera-relative, piecewise-rigid motion without physics simulation. Training recovers controls from real videos and synthetic ground-truth geometry, and experiments demonstrate consistent camera-relative motion, improved geometric consistency, and strong controllability across diverse real-world scenes.

MUGEN is a large‑scale real‑world dataset of over 1,300 hours of 4K panoramic videos with rich semantic and geometric annotations, designed to support interactive 360° world exploration. Wan360 is a camera‑controllable panoramic video generation model built on MUGEN, featuring ERP‑aware components (periodic longitude RoPE, ERP‑aware padding, random roll yaw) and a panoramic Plücker embedding for camera motion. Together, they address gaps in data and model support for immersive, temporally coherent 360° video generation along user‑specified camera trajectories.

We present 4DAnyone, a framework for reconstructing 4D humans from an uncalibrated monocular video by generating reconstruction-grade multiview-consistent videos and lifting them into 4D Gaussian Splatting (4DGS). Existing camera-controlled video diffusion models synthesize plausible novel-view videos but fail to maintain consistency when scaled to the tens of target views required for 4DGS reconstruction.

OmniShowcase introduces a method for generating omnidirectional videos of a specific subject from a handful of multi‑view images. It combines an automated data‑synthesis pipeline that creates training videos with diverse camera trajectories driven by the subject’s geometry, and a geometry‑conditioning technique that supplies the model with surface‑normal maps reconstructed from the reference views. The authors release Showcase‑4K, a large corpus of 3D‑asset‑based videos with 12 camera motions and 88 trajectory configurations, and ShowcaseBench, a held‑out evaluation set with source meshes and camera parameters.

The paper introduces 4DStreamCtrl, a system that unifies camera motion, object trajectories, and depth into a single 3D point‑track representation, enabling joint control, depth editing, and motion transfer in a single forward pass. By mining in‑the‑wild video for 3D motion supervision and encoding it with a lightweight Geometric Motion Head, the authors train a causal streaming student that can generate arbitrarily long videos in just four denoising steps, achieving 20 FPS on a single high‑end GPU for 480p video. This approach outperforms prior camera‑only, 2D, and offline‑3D methods in motion‑control precision while maintaining temporal coherence over hundreds of frames, thereby enabling interactive 4D‑controllable streaming generation for the first time.
