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:
- Score: 0.43
- Interpretation: This score falls below the “good” range of 0.5 to 0.75. It suggests that the model didn’t perfectly capture the intended camera positions described in the prompt.
Shot Analysis:
- Score: 0.5
- Interpretation: This score falls within the “good” range of 0.5 to 0.75. It indicates that the model was able to understand the scene described in the prompt and create a shot that aligns with it.
Aesthetic Analysis:
- Score: 0.12
- Interpretation: This score is above the “very good” range of -0.2 to 0.1. It suggests that the generated image’s aesthetic deviated significantly from the expected aesthetic described in the prompt.
Overall:
The model demonstrates a good understanding of camera positions and shot composition, but struggles to achieve the desired aesthetic. This suggests that the model might need further training to better understand and translate aesthetic preferences into visual outputs.
