Conclusion
The results show that the generative AI model performed well in understanding the scene and camera positions, but struggled with the aesthetic aspect. Here’s a breakdown:
- Camera Position: The model scored 0.4, which is considered below average. This indicates that the generated image didn’t accurately reflect the camera positions described in the prompt.
- Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.55, which is considered average. This means the generated image somewhat matched the shot described in the prompt.
- Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.09, which is considered very good. This indicates that the generated image closely matched the expected aesthetic, despite the issues with camera position and shot analysis.
Overall, the model seems to be better at understanding the desired aesthetic than the specific camera positions and shot composition. This suggests that the model might need further training to improve its ability to accurately interpret and implement camera directions.
