My Vision

The emergence of AI video generation tools like Sora and Veo has made it possible for anyone to create any video clip they envision. Visualizing ideas is no longer the bottleneck in creation. I believe what becomes critical in this era is how we edit and direct these clips to craft a cohesive story. My research focuses on developing advanced video editing technologies that enable creators to express their narratives more seamlessly and effectively in this new creative environment.
