Netflix uses it -- should you? How AI can analyze your script, your proposed actors, your genre, target audience, dramatic conflict, and box office potential? You've got to hear this to believe it!
This will blow your mind to see page-by page how a computer analyzes a movie script!
AI comes to Hollywood VIA Switzerland, with a new company, Largo.ai. They have created a special presentation for IFA members to help us understand how data-assisted intelligence and technology can analyze a short film or feature film's potential success. This analysis can be performed in five minutes and can be evaluated at the pre-production, post production, or distribution stage of a project's creation. This helps producers to evaluate a script's potential with the target market, success with genre expectations, how it might compare with similar projects in order to better design marketing campaigns, and make reliable box office predictions. They work with Hollywood movies, independent movies, and short films to analyze a movie's strengths and weaknesses to guide every step of the process.
