As of February 2008, the 8 Year Beta-testing of CFI™ & Screenplay
Structure & Profit Forecasting System Has Been Completed.
CFI™ recently completed the public beta-testing of their Motion Picture Index™ technology
in conjunction with story-editing, screenplay development and profit forecasting.
Several years ago, CFI™ developed an exclusive profit forecasting paradigm that correctly forecasts the future performance of every new motion picture before it's given a greenlight, or before starting into preproduction.
This new process exposes the undetected components that are silently hiding, deep inside every new film or television project. These ambiguous components build up into component formulations that contain unique statistical values and carry a specific weight with your future audiences. By tabulating those intrinsic formulation values before casting and pre-production, CFI™ can forecast each screenplay's word-of-mouth propensity and its commercial viability, along with its future U.S. profitability, and its future worldwide income level.
In this way, we identify your next film project's unseen strengths or weaknesses and check improvements before you invest in the project. By tracking the project from script to screen, we can actually insure every forecast.
Weekly forecasting accuracy for predicting the profitability of future mass-audience film projects is currently between 90 to 95 percent accurate. For the past eight years it's achieved an average accuracy of over 95 percent. As accuracy ratings like that have never been accomplished in motion pictures before, it may seem too good to be true but the data speaks for itself. CFI™ is 100% more accurate in performance, playability, profitability, and popularity forecasting than any other box-office forecast provider. And they don't just forecast the opening weekend income - but the entire run of the project.
To prove this accuracy, the forecasts and structural component scores are posted on this website days, weeks, months, and years before other film tracking or financial box-office estimates. These forecasts are scrutinized weekly by objective third parties; and each forecast is permanently archived to provide for independent, outside validation and verification. Besides the past 8 years of beta-testing, we have spent a previous eighteen years in the research and development of psychological response technologies related to audience word-of-mouth acceptance and the study of decades of mass-audience attendance comparisons.
The technology CFI™ employs includes a binary psychological analysis of emotionally expressed outputs in comparison to successful and unsuccessful cinematic endeavors combined with proprietary biometric identificational techniques and real-time component formulation data-basing.
Just a few of its many benefits are;
· Improved executive accountability and objective measurability of the creative process with verifiable tracking of production results
· Improved wide-release film audience attendance with grosses equating up to 200% over current box-office incomes
· Improved film, television, stage, musical or entertainment casting while providing cost-saving reductions of more than 50% in the financial and time expenditures involved in the casting process
· Guaranteed sexual chemistry for increasing word-of-mouth audience response, attendance, and profitability
· Guaranteed minimum box-office income per picture of 183% of the budget from North American theaters
