Conclusion

The generative AI model performed well in terms of understanding camera positions and scene composition, but struggled with achieving the desired aesthetic. Here’s a breakdown:

• Camera Position: The model scored a 0.35, indicating a moderate ability to accurately translate the camera position described in the prompt into the generated image. This suggests the model is somewhat capable of understanding and implementing camera angles, but there’s room for improvement.
• Shot Analysis: The model scored a 0.56, indicating a good ability to understand the scene described in the prompt and translate it into a coherent shot. This suggests the model is generally capable of capturing the essence of the scene, but may not always perfectly match the intended composition.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored a 0.075, indicating a moderate ability to achieve the desired aesthetic. This suggests the model is not yet very good at capturing the intended style or mood of the image.

Overall, the model shows promise in understanding camera positions and scene composition, but needs further development to consistently achieve the desired aesthetic.
