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 0.53, which falls within the “good” range (0.5 to 0.75). This indicates that the model was able to accurately capture the camera positions described in the prompt.
- Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.59, also within the “good” range. This suggests that the model understood the scene described in the prompt and was able to create an image that reflected that understanding.
- Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.27, which is significantly lower than the “very good” range (-0.2 to 0.1). This indicates that the generated image did not match the expected aesthetic as closely as it did with the camera position and shot analysis.
Overall, the model demonstrates a good understanding of camera positions and scene composition, but needs improvement in capturing the desired aesthetic.
