When none other than Tyler Perry halts an $800 million studio expansion after seeing a text-to-video AI demo, you know something major is happening in media and entertainment. AI isn’t new to the industry—Netflix has used machine learning (ML) to serve up recommendations since the early 2000s—but generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is changing more than distribution and marketing. GenAI is primed to change how film, television, and music are imagined and produced.

Financing Movie Making requires convergence of investors, bankers and several financial institutions coming together. The entire movie making process is complex across the lifecycle of pre-production, production, post-production, distribution etc.
As a producer of a movie, the intent is to ensure the success of the content (movie) and make financial profit. The entire moving making process results in a lot of data generation (from scripts, marketing assets, actors, posters, trailers, props, exchange of information, ideas and so many other aspects across the lifecycle).
Can AI or GenAI help with finding patterns through the latitude of data across the movie making lifecycle? Can it help with prediction of success of movies that allows producers, directors, financiers to take informed and wise decisions for moving making? NStarX Data Scientists have been looking at this problem for a while now!

The rise of the mega streamer has brought the broadcast media industry into a period of volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. The acronym VUCA first described the complex and challenging geopolitical situation in 1987 following the Cold War, and now aptly defines the current media landscape. It’s an environment characterized by volatility in that challenges are unexpected and sometimes incomprehensible; by uncertainty in that change may happen, or not; by complexity in that it is influenced by numerous variables; and by ambiguity in that causal relationships can be difficult or impossible to define.

Judging by the number of trade publication articles and speaking sessions that focus on the topic, you’d think that the entire media and entertainment industry is focussed on cutting carbon costs. But is that really the case? True, broadcasters have set ambitious targets to reach net zero, the streaming giants are following suit, and they’re putting pressure on production companies to reduce their environmental impact and include sustainability messaging in the content they produce. Carbon emissions have even become a critical consideration in planning new studio builds. But not every part of the production chain is putting the environment first.

Media and entertainment is a well-established industry, with a heritage to be proud of. But maintaining a pivotal role in the consumer landscape for several decades comes with a unique set of challenges. As media and broadcast has evolved from a handful of linear channels through to a multi-platform ecosystem, more content needs to be reformatted and repurposed to reach an increasingly fragmented audience.

Long-established media organizations that serve up our favorite films and episodic content are often sitting on an enormous amount of valuable media that could be the key to unlocking new revenue opportunities, whether it’s repacking existing programs for new streaming opportunities or enhancing a new program with rich archival material. However, you need a cost-effective way to rescue and reuse archived content from the siloed systems and labyrinth of formats and files accumulated over the years. It has to be an accessible component of your media supply chain.
