"I Predicted 15 Movies Within $20,000 Each": How AI is Revolutionizing Film Production


Listen Later

In this episode of Lead with AI, Dr. Tamara Nall sits down with Nicholas Capone, owner of Mixed Slate Productions, who built an AI system that predicts movie revenues with stunning accuracy across all distribution channels and territories. Capone shares the moment when his AI correctly forecasted box office numbers, streaming revenues, and international sales for 15 different films within $20,000 of their actual performance, transforming what used to be a $10,000, three-week process into a five-minute analysis. From automatically generating screenplay coverage reports to identifying optimal actors within budget constraints, his AI handles every stage of production from pre-development to delivery. The system even detected Adult Swim layoffs before Capone heard about them, leading him to hire top-tier directors at the perfect moment. A former homeless individual turned successful producer, Capone reveals how his technology is forcing the entire film industry to adopt better business practices while reducing production costs from $150,000 monthly to just $200. He envisions a future where movies become more targeted and theaters make a comeback, supported by revolutionary technologies that let audiences experience 360-degree views during screenings.
