arXiv:2503.06310v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Generating coherent long-form video sequences from discrete text prompts remains challenging due to difficulties in maintaining temporal coherence, semantic consistency, and scene-action continuity across segments. We propose a novel storytelling framework that integrates scene and action prompts through dynamics-inspired prompt mixing. Our approach combines three key components: (i) a bidirectional time-weighted latent blending strategy that enforces temporal consistency between consecutive video segments, (ii) a dynamics-informed prompt weighting (DIPW) mechanism that adaptively balances scene and action prompts at each diffusion timestep based on CLIP-based alignment, narrative progression, and temporal smoothness, and (iii) a semantic action representation that encodes high-level action semantics to modulate transitions according to action similarity. Latent-space blending preserves spatial coherence within scenes, while time-weighted blending introduces bidirectional temporal constraints to prevent abrupt transitions. Together, these components enable fluid and coherent video narratives that faithfully reflect both scene context and action dynamics. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms baselines, producing temporally consistent and visually compelling long-form videos without any additional training, thereby bridging the gap between short clips and extended text-driven video storytelling.
