Abstract

In the area of text-to-video research, our work focuses on creating video content from textual descriptions, or more specifically, the creation of TV program like content from script like descriptions. This paper discusses a description framework that can be used to specify rough action instructions in the form of a script that can be used to produce detailed instructions controlling the behavior and actions of autonomous video actor agents. The paper also describes a prototype text-to-video system and presents examples of instructions for controlling an autonomous actor agent with our designed descriptive scheme.
