AI's Dramatic Style: A Mixed Bag of Shots and Aesthetics with Flux-schnell

The ‘dramatic style’ in filmmaking is characterized by its use of dramatic lighting, camera angles, and composition to create a sense of tension, excitement, or suspense. This style is often used in action films, thrillers, and horror movies to heighten the emotional impact of the story. In this experiment, we tasked a generative AI model with creating scenes that embody this dramatic style, providing it with specific prompts that included details about the scene, camera position, and desired aesthetic. The results offer insights into the model’s ability to understand and translate these instructions into visual representations.

Conclusion

The generative AI model performed well in terms of shot analysis and camera position analysis, but struggled with aesthetic analysis. Here’s a breakdown:

• Camera Position Analysis: The score of 0.2 indicates the model did not perform well in understanding and implementing the camera position specified in the prompt. A score between 0.5 and 0.75 would be considered good, and above 0.75 very good.
• Shot Analysis: The score of 0.46 suggests the model performed moderately well in understanding the scene described in the prompt and creating a corresponding shot. A score between 0.5 and 0.75 would be considered good, and above 0.75 very good.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The score of 0.33 indicates the model did not perform well in achieving the desired aesthetic. A score between -0.2 and 0.1 would be considered very good, indicating a close match between the expected and actual aesthetic.

Overall, the model shows some promise in understanding scene composition and shot types, but needs improvement in accurately capturing the intended camera position and aesthetic.
