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 0.35, which is considered below average. This suggests that the model didn’t accurately capture the intended camera position described in the prompt.
- Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.57, which is considered good. This indicates that the model was able to understand the scene described in the prompt and create a shot that aligns with it.
- Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.0, which is considered average. This means that the generated image’s aesthetic was neither particularly close to nor far from the expected aesthetic.
Overall, the model seems to be better at understanding the scene and shot composition than it is at capturing the intended camera position or aesthetic.
