Summary

Hybrid cinematography previsualizes generative reshoots while tracking hallucination risk instead of treating every synthetic frame as interchangeable.

Hybrid Cinematography frames generative video reshooting as both a creative planning problem and a risk-management problem. The workflow helps filmmakers preview changes and identify places where generated motion, objects or continuity may depart from the source intent. By making hallucination risk visible during previsualization, it aims to separate useful synthetic alternatives from shots that require more supervision or conventional capture. The paper presents a production-oriented framework, not evidence that generated footage is automatically reliable or legally cleared. Its practical contribution is to place uncertainty alongside shot design before a reshoot decision is made.
