AI filmmaking's hardest problem: Reddit practitioner seeks cutting edge for multi-shot character and spatial consistency

Reddit user Due-Air-5626 posted a detailed thread on AI filmmaking's core challenge: not generating pretty single shots, but maintaining character identity, spatial consistency, precise blocking, camera control and shot-to-shot continuity across a scene. They've tried a Blender → AI video pipeline (Mixamo characters, animated cameras, depth maps, pose conditioning, reference images, MiniMax H3 via ComfyUI) with promising single-shot results but unreliable spatial consistency, and now question whether forcing general video models to respect 3D blocking is fundamentally wrong. They ask about 3D-as-ground-truth pipelines, persistent identity approaches (LoRAs, identity adapters), Gaussian splatting/world models, node-graph engineering, and what actually works in production.
