Conclusion
The results show that 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 Analysis: The score of 0.3 indicates that the model’s ability to react to camera positions in the prompt is below average. A score between 0.5 and 0.75 would be considered good, and above 0.75 very good.
- Shot Analysis: The score of 0.58 indicates that the model’s ability to understand the scene in a prompt and create the appropriate shot is average. A score between 0.5 and 0.75 would be considered good, and above 0.75 very good.
- Aesthetic Analysis: The score of 0.05 indicates that the model is very good at creating images that match the expected aesthetic. A score between -0.2 and 0.1 is considered very good.
Overall, the model seems to be better at capturing the desired aesthetic than accurately interpreting camera positions and shot descriptions.
