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 0.46, 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 prompt is decent, but could be improved.
• Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.56, falling within the “good” range. This indicates that the model is generally able to understand the scene described in the prompt and create images that reflect the intended shot type.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.11, which is significantly lower than the “very good” range of -0.2 to 0.1. This suggests that the generated image’s aesthetic deviated considerably from the expected aesthetic based on the prompt.

Overall, the model demonstrates a good understanding of camera positions and shot types, but needs improvement in generating images that match the desired aesthetic.
