Just created a short cinematic promo for our CVPR 2026 workshop Journey to the Awards (J2A) using generative video. What’s remarkable is how far the tech has come — with minimal intervention and input, the first generation is already surprisingly strong on Seedance 2.0. Movie-grade video generation is no longer a distant vision. The frontier is moving fast. The future of cinema is generative. See you at CVPR 2026. cvpr26-j2a.github.io @CVPR

Video generation is entering its cinematic era. The 1st Workshop on Journey to the Awards: Generative AI for Movie-Grade Video Production (J2A) at CVPR 2026 focuses on advancing: 🎬 Movie-grade video models 🧠 Structured & controllable generation 🌍 World-model-driven video synthesis ⚙️ End-to-end production pipelines Submit your work: cvpr26-j2a.github.io #CVPR2026 #VideoModels #GenerativeModels #Multimodal @CVPR

🚀 Introducing our fresh work at Stanford and Meta MSL: UniT — Unified Multimodal Chain-of-Thought Test-time Scaling What if a single model could generate an image, look at it, think about what's wrong, and fix it — all by itself? That's exactly what UniT does. 🧵👇
