tawasal Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 The Numbers Bankability Index estimates how much someone adds in value to the film industry each year based on analysis of the Hollywood Creative Graph™, a network of over 65,000 thousand people with over 2.5 million connections that represent all the films they have worked on together. By using an analytical technique called graph analysis, the Bankability Index measures the influence of each person in the Hollywood Creative Graph, which we translate below into an estimate of the annual value added by the 10 biggest players in the industry today. In simple terms, if the film business returned to the studio system that existed in the 1950s, this is how much we would pay everyone each year. This chart is based on the worldwide box office earnings for every film a person has worked on, adjusted to reflect their performance over roughly the past decade. It is therefore a reflection of the most consistent performers over time. We have other versions of the Index that reflect more recent performance at the box office.

tawasal Posted November 17, 2013 Author Share Posted November 17, 2013 The numbers on the top right is how much they are roughly paid. Does the Index suggest that people are overpaid? No, not really. The fundamental goal behind building The Numbers Bankability Index is to assess the value someone would bring to an average non-franchise film — regardless of whether they are in a lead role, or even an acting role. It looks at the value each person brings to a film as part of a team. This can be very different from deciding how much they should be paid for a particular role, particularly in established franchises. Johnny Depp, for example, is measured as being worth about $9.3 million to an average movie (like, for example, The Rum Diary), but is clearly worth far more playing Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean. Our Under the Covers article shows how we go about assessing the value of Johnny Depp playing Jack Sparrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
