DrawVideo: Grounded and Faithful Multi-Shot Video Generation from Storyboard Keyframe Sketches
Long video generation requires high-fidelity visual synthesis, coherent narrative organization, shot-level structure, and explicit user control. Existing text-to-video methods typically generate videos from a single long-form prompt, making it difficult for creators to directly control character pose, camera composition, spatial layout, and local motion. We propose DrawVideo, a sketch-guided and storyboard-driven framework that grounds multi-shot video generation in creator-provided spatial structure, appearance, and motion. Each shot is specified by a black-and-white sketch, an appearance prompt, and a motion prompt. DrawVideo first generates a structure-aligned reference keyframe, expan...
