Conclusion
The generative AI model performed okay in terms of camera position and shot analysis, but very well in terms of aesthetic analysis.
Here’s a breakdown:
- Camera Position: The model scored 0.3, which is below the “good” range of 0.5 to 0.75. This suggests that the model didn’t always accurately translate the intended camera positions from the prompt into the generated image.
- Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.41, also below the “good” range. This indicates that the model had some difficulty understanding the scene described in the prompt and translating it into a visually coherent shot.
- Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.38, which falls within the “very good” range of -0.2 to 0.1. This means the generated image closely matched the expected aesthetic style described in the prompt.
Overall, the model shows promise in capturing the desired aesthetic but needs improvement in accurately interpreting camera positions and scene descriptions.
