    FinalProject 25/08/2018, 930 PM COGS108 Final Project Group Members: Yanyi Wang Ziwen Zeng Lingfei Lu Yuhan Wang Yuqing Deng Introduction and Background Movie revenue is one of the most important measure of good and bad movies. Revenue is also the most important and intuitionistic feedback to producers, directors and actors. Therefore it is worth for us to put effort on analyzing what factors correlate to revenue, so that producers, directors and actors know how to get higher revenue on next movie by focusing on most correlated factors. Our project focuses on anaylzing all kinds of factors that correlated to revenue, for example, genres, elements in the movie, popularity, release month, runtime, vote average, vote count on website and cast etc. After analysis, we can clearly know what are the crucial factors to a movie's revenue and our analysis can be used as a guide for people shooting movies who want to earn higher renveue for their next movie. They can focus on those most correlated factors, for example, shooting specific genre and hire some actors who have higher average revenue. Reasrch Question: Various factors blend together to create a high revenue for movie, but what are the most important aspect contribute to higher revenue? What aspects should people put more effort on and what factors should people focus on when they try to higher the revenue of a movie? http://localhost:8888/nbconvert/html/Desktop/MyProjects/Pr_085/FinalProject.ipynb?download=false Page 1 of 62 FinalProject 25/08/2018, 930 PM Hypothesis: We predict that the following factors contribute the most to movie revenue.

  • Solva News October 2020.Ppp
    SOLVA NEWS N NEWYDDION SOLFACH W E The newsletter can be downloaded S Free Copy as a pdf from the website: Please take one www.solva.gov.wales October 2020 No. 140 Solva Memorial Hall Reopening Update – extracts from a recent zoom meeting between PAVS, WCVA, Welsh Government and WLGA. The main topics of discussion were, what was the difference between social and charitable/voluntary activities and the interpretation of the “rule of six”, which has understandably caused some concern amongst hall committees regarding reopening plans. Things are under review, and the WCVA’s information sheet will not be updated until next week, hopefully it will provide more clarity. Currently the legislation hasn’t changed and community facilities following all COVID-19 secure guidelines can host more than 6 people in total, but no one should visit or socialise in a group of greater than 6. But ultimately it up to the hall committee to make the decision whether they reopen now, or continue with preparations to re-open at a future date. With this in mind and until the above clarification has been received Solva Memorial Hall will remain closed, but it is hoped it can be reopened in the next two weeks. Mount Farm Milk – latest delivery The Mount Farm's fresh milk initiative, in partnership with Solva Community Council, has caught the imagination of the village and a number of tourists too. In the short period that the Top Shop Milking Parlour has been open already a considerable saving in single use plastic cartons has been achieved - probably a skip full! Lyndsey Richards from Mount Farm is delighted that locals are opting for a local, sustainable milk over alternatives with a huge carbon footprint - she says that this is a great example of the community working together with a local supplier to the benefit of everyone.
