Conclusion
The results indicate 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 0.5, which falls within the “good” range. This suggests that the model is able to understand and implement camera positions reasonably well, but there’s room for improvement to reach the “very good” level.
- Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.51, also within the “good” range. This indicates that the model is capable of understanding the scene described in the prompt and creating a shot that aligns with it, but again, further improvement is possible to achieve “very good” results.
- Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.08, which is significantly lower than the “very good” range of -0.2 to 0.1. This suggests that the model is not yet very good at capturing the desired aesthetic of the image.
Overall, the model shows promise in understanding camera positions and shot composition, but needs further development to accurately capture the intended aesthetic.
