Table of Contents
The world of AI image generation is rapidly evolving, with models capable of creating stunning visuals from text prompts. However, the ability to accurately interpret and implement specific camera positions remains a challenge. This blog post examines a case study where an AI model was tasked with generating images based on detailed scene descriptions, including camera positions. The results reveal a mixed bag, with the model excelling in aesthetic quality but struggling to accurately capture the intended camera angles and shot types. We explore the reasons behind these limitations and discuss the potential for future improvements in AI’s understanding of visual composition.
