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.

Forge4D is a feed‑forward model that reconstructs temporally aligned 4D human representations from uncalibrated sparse‑view videos, enabling both novel view and novel time synthesis. It achieves this by jointly streaming 3D Gaussian reconstruction with dense motion prediction, using learnable state tokens for temporal consistency and a self‑supervised retargeting loss for motion prediction. Extensive experiments confirm its effectiveness on in‑domain and out‑of‑domain datasets.

We present MoVerse, a real-time video world model that creates an interactively navigable scene from a single narrow-field-of-view image. This setting is challenging because the input observes only a small fraction of the environment, while interactive roaming requires a complete surrounding world, persistent geometry, controllable camera motion, and temporally coherent high-fidelity observations.
Streaming autoregressive diffusion models enable real-time, long-horizon video generation, but their training objectives optimize local frame prediction rather than the geometry and dynamics of a coherent world: long rollouts accumulate geometric drift and degrade into static or unnatural motion. Recent bidirectional approaches address this problem using rewards signals built upon 3D Gaussian-Splatting reconstruction.
Precise 3D spatial orchestration in text-to-video generation remains a significant challenge, particularly for multi-object scenes where semantic layout and temporal dynamics are often entangled. While existing depth-conditioned models achieve good structural fidelity, they necessitate dense, frame-accurate guidance that is labor-intensive to author for dynamic events involving deformable objects.
