  1. Lynwood Library was established in May 1915. It began as a volunteer library, but soon joined the Los Angeles County Public Library System. From a small club-house room on Long Beach Boulevard, the library was moved in 1917 to a storeroom at the corner of Long Beach Boulevard and Fernwood Avenue, then to Elmwood Avenue, from 1918-24.

    Simply put, the Monte Carlo helps us think about and observe risk by incorporating probability instead of point estimate. Let me explain these two concepts in an example: imagine there are two people, OwnerA and Owner B, who share the ownership of a restaurant. They need to have an understanding ofhow much profit their restaurant is going to make i...

    From the above example, we can see how using Monte Carlo simulation, rather than just a point estimate, gives much more insight into risk. In the real world, though, we simulate a million times using computers before drawing the final conclusion. Monte Carlo itself is a very useful tool to estimate and illustrate risk; for that reason, it is a popu...

    Each data point in the diagram represents a single movie, where its box office revenue is measured on the vertical axis and its marketing spend is measured on the horizontal axis. The green line in the middle of the graph is the benchmark that illustrates the relationship between marketing spend and revenue. In the graph, 50% of all films are above...

    Looking at the above graph and comparing it to the previous ones, we can see that all of Relativity’s releases are clustering together with a much smaller variation. This means that their risks are reduced. So, did we just show that Ryan Kavanaugh’s algorithm worked? Not so fast. These films have much less variation, even though most of them are be...

    Now, let’s look at the contrasting example: Pixar. As we can see in the graph below, 90% of Pixar-animated films are above the benchmark. However, Pixar films have muchhigher risk compared to Relativity’s films.They are very successful because their average return is high enough to take care of this excessive risk/variance, which resulted in 90% of...

    We can still use math and technology to help us make much more informed decisions in filmmaking. All models are wrong, but some are useful, and that is the logic behind Greenlight Essentials’ software: to be useful. We do not make any assumptions to build models or simulate risks; rather, we only use real-world real data points to draw real conclus...

    If you are an indie/low-budget filmmaker who is self-distributing your film or operating under a tight marketing budget, this information can be extremely useful. You can allocate marketing resources much more effectively according to a target market demand (more bang for the buck). With this tool, you'll get to know the people who have historicall...
