Conclusion
The results show that the generative AI model performed well in understanding the camera position and shot composition, but struggled with the aesthetic aspect. Here’s a breakdown:
- Camera Position: The model scored 0.45, which falls 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 0.54, which is within the “good” range. This indicates that the model was able to understand and translate the scene description in the prompt into a visually coherent shot.
- Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.05, which is significantly below the “very good” range of -0.2 to 0.1. This suggests that the generated image’s aesthetic deviated considerably from the expected aesthetic described in the prompt.
Overall, the model demonstrates a decent understanding of camera position and shot composition, but needs improvement in capturing the desired aesthetic.
