Description
This study presents a novel approach to predicting and optimizing screenplay investments by combining graph theory and finite mixture modeling (FMM) techniques. We construct a k-partite graph representing movies, genres, subgenres, production companies, directors, actors, and directors of photography, to explore the interconnectedness between these entities. Using FMM, we identify clusters within budget tiers, enabling a deeper understanding of how similar films perform based on their creative team and production characteristics. By balancing profit potential with risk-adjusted profit, the model suggests the most viable budget tiers for unproduced screenplays. This approach incorporates confidence intervals and evaluates the accuracy of budget tier recommendations, offering a data-driven solution for movie producers to make informed investment decisions.
