Business Problem

Microsoft sees all the big companies creating original video content, and they want to get in on the fun. They have decided to create a new movie studio, but the problem is they don’t know anything about creating movies. They have hired you to help them better understand the movie industry.

You must then translate those findings into actionable insights that the head of Microsoft's new movie studio can use to help decide what type of films to create.
