Conclusion

The results show 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 0.39, which is below the “good” range of 0.5 to 0.75. This suggests that the model didn’t fully capture the intended camera position described in the prompt.
• Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.57, which falls within the “good” range. This indicates that the model was able to understand the scene and create a shot that was relatively close to what was described in the prompt.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.13, which is outside the “very good” range of -0.2 to 0.1. This suggests that the generated image’s aesthetic deviated significantly from the expected aesthetic described in the prompt.

Overall, the model demonstrated a good understanding of the scene and shot composition, but struggled to achieve the desired aesthetic.
