Conclusion

The results show that the generative AI model performed well in terms of camera position and shot analysis, but struggled with aesthetic analysis.

Here’s a breakdown:

• Camera Position: The model scored a 0.5, which falls within the “good” range (0.5 to 0.75). This indicates that the model was able to accurately capture the camera positions described in the prompt.
• Shot Analysis: The model scored a 0.57, also within the “good” range. This suggests that the model understood the scene described in the prompt and was able to create an image that reflected that understanding.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored a 0.15, which is significantly lower than the “very good” range (-0.2 to 0.1). This indicates that the generated image did not match the expected aesthetic as closely as it could have.

Overall, the model demonstrates a good understanding of camera positions and scene composition, but needs improvement in generating images that meet the desired aesthetic.
