**Overview
**
This project focuses on developing a web-based platform for analyzing and visualizing IMDB movie data. The motivation behind this project is the need to process and present large datasets in a user-friendly way, making it easier to identify trends and derive insights. The film industry generates vast amounts of data, such as movie releases, reviews, ratings, and production details. This platform aims to provide an organized solution to visualize and explore this information effectively.
The platform allows users, including movie enthusiasts, data analysts, film critics, and researchers, to explore IMDB movie data through interactive visualizations. Core functionalities include visualizing movie release trends by year, genre, and production country, performing sentiment analysis on user reviews, and generating word clouds based on commonly found terms in reviews.
The project is built with a technology stack featuring Python and Django for backend development, managing server-side logic and database interactions. The frontend will be developed with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, while ECharts will be used to create dynamic visualizations. The MySQL database will store the IMDB movie data. Git will be used for version control, and GitHub will manage collaboration. Additional tools, such as Pandas for data processing and pie charts for specific visualizations, will support the platform's functionality.
