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 0.41, which is below the “good” range of 0.5 to 0.75. This suggests that the model didn’t perfectly capture the intended camera position described in the prompt.
• Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.645, falling within the “good” range. This indicates that the model was able to understand the scene described in the prompt and create an image that reflects it reasonably well.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.08, 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 described in the prompt.

Overall, the model shows promise in understanding scene composition and camera positioning, but needs improvement in generating images that match the desired aesthetic.
