We've taken the mechanics of fantasy sports and applied it to the movie industry.
Objective: Using your knowledge of movies, earn the most money (points) in a year.
- In Fantasy Movie Studio, you and a team of friends "recruit" talent to your studio - actors, actresses, writers, producers, directors, etc.
- Each month, every team member may "cast" from the pool of recruited talent for their movie that month.
- Each week that month, points are earned based on the following metrics:
- Opening weekend box-office earnings (as reported by Box Office Mojo)
- Rotten Tomatoes Critics Score that first weekend
This prototype was made in 24 hours with the use of Microsoft Azure's web services, virtual machine, storage, and SQL database, Bootstrap framework, the Rotten Tomatoes API, and a webscraper written in Python using the Scrapy framework.
