Conclusion

The generative AI model performed okay in terms of camera position and shot analysis, but exceeded expectations in aesthetic analysis. Here’s a breakdown:

• Camera Position: The model scored 0.35, which falls below the “good” range of 0.5 to 0.75. This suggests the model struggled to accurately translate the camera positions described in the prompts into the generated images.
• Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.485, also below the “good” range. This indicates the model had some difficulty understanding the scene descriptions in the prompts and translating them into the generated images.
• Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.27, which falls within the “very good” range of -0.2 to 0.1. This means the generated images closely matched the expected aesthetic style, demonstrating the model’s ability to capture the desired visual style.

Overall, the model shows promise in capturing the desired aesthetic but needs improvement in accurately interpreting camera positions and scene descriptions.
