This is my first project for the online data science course in Flatiron school. Supposing that, Microsoft has decided to create a new movie studio, but they don’t know anything about producing movies.
If anyone is interested in my project, please feel free to have a look at the following link.
Project Problem
In this project, I will do the data analysis and present to understand the movie industry trend better. Several questions need to be answered:
- What is a popular movie?
- What is a popular genre?
- Does the popularity affect the gross?
- What is the relationship between popularity and production budget?
- Which studio produces movies the most?
Dataset
A movie-related data is from:
- Box Office Mojo
- IMDB
- Rotten Tomatoes
- TheMovieDB.org
Summary
The movie’s trend is like the Top 10 movies I presented in my presentation from my analysis. The most recommended genre is Action. The popularity affects the worldwide gross, especially the popularity less than 55. With a budget of fewer than 300 million dollars, the production budget and popularity are positive correlated. Finally, Walt Disney studio is the most producing studio.
Future Plan
For the future, I should include more factors to increase the accuracy, such as:
- casts or producers
- releasing time
- more specific budget range
Also, the statistical model should be applied for better prediction.
