Conclusion

The results show that the generative AI model performed well in terms of camera position and shot analysis, but struggled with aesthetic analysis.

Here’s a breakdown:

• Camera Position: The model scored 0.48, which is slightly below the “good” range of 0.5 to 0.75. This suggests that the model’s ability to accurately interpret and reproduce camera positions in the generated images is decent, but could be improved.
• Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.585, falling within the “good” range. This indicates that the model is generally able to understand and translate the scene descriptions from the prompt into the generated image.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.145, which is significantly higher than the “very good” range of -0.2 to 0.1. This suggests that the generated image’s aesthetic deviated significantly from the expected aesthetic based on the prompt.

Overall, the model demonstrates a good understanding of camera positions and shot composition, but needs improvement in capturing the desired aesthetic.
