In this article we will use the Vionlabs’ Emotional Data Analysis to compare two movies that from a traditional metadata perspective are basically the same movie, but as the data will show, are actually quite different. That is why it’s so important to understand content on a deeper level and use that data to improve the streaming experience. Because of the current recommendation algorithms used by many services today, the titles being recommended are often misleading and viewer satisfaction will therefore suffer. With vast content libraries, viewers struggle to find great content they are in the mood for amidst the increasing overflow of titles presented to them. Streaming services today face many challenges.
A QUIET PLACE MOVIE MOVIE
A movie recommendation like this is bound to make expectations go unmet. But these two movies will not necessarily have the same emotional impact on the viewer. With this (if you are lucky), it’s very likely that if you’ve watched A Quiet Place (Krasinski, 2018) and really enjoyed it, The Silence (Leonetti, 2019) will be recommended to you because of its similar genre and high-level plot. To present you with content you would like to watch, streaming services today use recommendation algorithms based on traditional metadata. For movie enthusiasts across the globe who have seen both movies, the answer to the question posed by the title of this article might be fairly straightforward.
