Recent advances in image editing have enabled fine-grained and highly controllable visual modifications. However, achieving similar levels of controllability in video editing remains an open challenge, particularly for precise local edits, dynamic temporal effects, and consistent lighting across frames.In this paper, we propose EditDistill, a framework that distills image-level visual transformations from edits to guide video editing.Specifically, given a source video and an edit prompt, we first generate an edited version of the initial video frame using an off-the-shelf image editing model. We then distill the visual transformation of this original-edited image pair into a compact representation termed an edit descriptor.This descriptor is injected into a video diffusion model through our lightweight fusion module, which steers the denoising process toward the desired edit. To align the video trajectory with the demonstrated image edit while preserving motion and layout, we train with edit-descriptor alignment and DINO structural consistency losses, and derive an equivalent inference-time guidance formulation under flow matching.Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves strong performance on standard benchmarks and produces high-quality video editing results across diverse scenarios.
