Conclusion

The results indicate that the generative AI model performed well in understanding the scene and camera position, but struggled with the aesthetic aspect. Here’s a breakdown:

• Camera Position: The model scored 0.35, which is below the “good” range of 0.5 to 0.75. This suggests that the model didn’t accurately capture the intended camera positions described in the prompt.
• Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.61, falling within the “good” range. This indicates that the model was able to understand the scene and create a shot that was somewhat aligned with the prompt.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.1, which is within the “very good” range of -0.2 to 0.1. This means that the generated image’s aesthetic was very close to the expected aesthetic described in the prompt.

Overall, the model shows promise in understanding the scene and achieving the desired aesthetic, but needs improvement in accurately capturing the intended camera positions.
