Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for determining media content quality are inefficient and costly, relying on retrospective analysis and lacking real-time audience feedback, leading to significant financial risk and time-consuming re-edits or re-shoots.

Innovation Solution

A computer-implemented method using Machine Learning models to analyze screenplay data, segmenting it for user feedback, and predicting quality based on reader behavior and interpretations, providing early-stage insights into audience response.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If test screening is conducted after completed media content production, then audience feedback can be obtained, but over 90% of capital is already invested and adverse feedback requires expensive re-edits or re-shoots

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality assessment accuracyVSAvoidtime for re-edits or re-shoots
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs quality assessment in advance by analyzing screenplays and storyboards before actual production and test screening. The AI model predicts audience reactions and identifies potential issues early, allowing corrections to be made during the writing and pre-production stages rather than after costly filming is complete.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates a digital copy of the screenplay and storyboard content that can be analyzed and evaluated without requiring physical production. The AI model processes text and visual descriptions to simulate audience responses, providing feedback on narrative quality, character development, and overall appeal before actual media production occurs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Productivity

If retrospective analysis of historical films is used for prediction, then some guidance can be obtained, but the databases do not accurately reflect current audience likes and sensitivities

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprediction speedVSAvoidaudience sentiment accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system updates its analysis parameters and training data to reflect current audience preferences, cultural trends, and sensitivities. Instead of relying on static historical databases, the AI model continuously learns from contemporary media consumption patterns and feedback, adapting its prediction algorithms to accurately capture current audience reactions while maintaining fast processing speeds.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Productivity

If AI-driven analysis is used for screenplay evaluation, then efficiency is improved, but the systems lack comprehensive ability to recognize emotions and establish human connection

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanalysis efficiencyVSAvoidemotional recognition accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system incorporates multiple feedback loops where AI analysis is combined with human expert review and actual audience testing. The AI model processes emotional cues from screenplays and storyboards, while human analysts provide contextual interpretation and validation. Audience feedback from controlled viewing sessions further refines the emotional recognition accuracy, creating a hybrid system that maintains high efficiency while improving reliability in emotional and connective aspect assessment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

Methods and systems for determining quality of media content are disclosed. The method performed by a server system includes extracting textual data related to a screenplay associated with media content being produced by a first user. Method includes segmenting the textual data into multiple sections to display each section to second user(s). Method includes receiving user input(s) from each of the second user(s) for each section. Method includes determining, by Machine Learning (ML) model(s) associated with the server system, user behavior of each second user, and a set of interpretations for the screenplay based on the textual data and user input(s). Method includes generating, by the ML model(s), a prediction indicative of a predicted quality of the media content based on the user behavior and the set of interpretations.
