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 0.45, which is considered okay. This means the generated image’s camera position was somewhat different from what was requested in the prompt.
• Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.535, which is also considered okay. This indicates that the generated image’s shot composition was somewhat different from what was requested in the prompt.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.07, which is considered pretty bad. This means the generated image’s aesthetic was significantly different from what was expected based on the prompt.

Overall, the model seems to be struggling with understanding and implementing the desired aesthetic of the image. It’s doing a decent job with camera position and shot analysis, but there’s room for improvement in capturing the intended visual style.
