Conclusion
The results show that the generative AI model performed well in understanding the scene and camera position, but struggled with the aesthetic. Here’s a breakdown:
- Camera Position: The model scored 0.4, which is below average. This suggests that the generated image didn’t accurately reflect the camera position described in the prompt.
- Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.61, which is considered good. This indicates that the model was able to understand the scene described in the prompt and create an image that reflects it well.
- Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.22, which is considered very good. This means that the generated image closely matched the expected aesthetic style.
Overall, the model seems to be better at understanding the scene and achieving the desired aesthetic than accurately capturing the camera position.
